Expressiveness of Full First Order Constraints in the Algebra of Finite or Infinite Trees
We are interested in the expressiveness of constraints represented by general first order formulae, with equality as unique relation symbol and function symbols taken from an infi...

DL-Lite in the Light of First-Order Logic
The use of ontologies in various application domains, such as Data Integration, the Semantic Web, or ontology-based data management, where ontologies provide the access to large a...

The First-Order Theory of Sets with Cardinality Constraints is Decidable
Data structures often use an integer variable to keep track of the number of elements they store. An invariant of such data structure is that the value of the integer variable is ...

The Decidability of the First-Order Theory of Knuth-Bendix Order
Two kinds of orderings are widely used in term rewriting and theorem proving, namely recursive path ordering (RPO) and Knuth-Bendix ordering (KBO). They provide powerful tools to p...

Discovering affine equalities using random interpretation
We present a new polynomial-time randomized algorithm for discovering affine equalities involving variables in a program. The key idea of the algorithm is to execute a code fragme...
