A Toolkit for First Order Extensions of Monadic Games
In 1974 R. Fagin proved that properties of structures which are in NP are exactly the same as those expressible by existential second order sentences, that is sentences of the form...

Tree Automata with Global Constraints
A tree automaton with global tree equality and disequality constraints, TAGED for short, is an automaton on trees which allows to test (dis)equalities between subtrees which may be...

Monadic datalog over finite structures with bounded treewidth
Bounded treewidth and Monadic Second Order (MSO) logic have proved to be key concepts in establishing fixed-parameter tractability results. Indeed, by Courcelle's Theorem we ...

Expressiveness and complexity of graph logic
We investigate the complexity and expressive power of a spatial logic for reasoning about graphs. This logic was previously introduced by Cardelli, Gardner and Ghelli, and provide...

Regular Sets of Higher-Order Pushdown Stacks
Abstract. It is a well-known result that the set of reachable stack contents in a pushdown automaton is a regular set of words. We consider the more general case of higher-order pu...
