The Complexity of Monadic Second-Order Unification
Abstract. Monadic second-order unification is second-order unification where all function constants occurring in the equations are unary. Here we prove that the problem of deciding...

Decidable and Undecidable Second-Order Unification Problems
There is a close relationship between word unification and second-order unification. This similarity has been exploited for instance for proving decidability of monadic second-orde...

Lower Bounds for the Complexity of Monadic Second-Order Logic
Courcelle's famous theorem from 1990 states that any property of graphs definable in monadic second-order logic (MSO2) can be decided in linear time on any class of graphs of ...
