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...
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...
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 ...
Model theoretic syntax is concerned with studying the descriptive complexity of grammar formalisms for natural languages by defining their derivation trees in suitable logical for...
