We usually use natural language vocabulary for sort names in order-sorted logics, and some sort names may contradict other sort names in the sort-hierarchy. These implicit negation...
We compare and contrast Description Logic (DL) and Order-Sorted Feature (OSF) Logic from the perspective of using them for expressing and reasoning with knowledge structures of the...
This paper focuses on first-order logic (FO) extended by reachability predicates such that the expressiveness and hence decidability properties lie between FO and monadic second-o...
A fundamental result of Büchi states that the set of monadic second-order formulas true in the structure (Nat, <) is decidable. A natural question is: what monadic predicates ...
