Because uncertain reasoning is often intractable, it is hard to reason with a large amount of knowledge. One solution to this problem is to specify a set of possible models, some s...

Abstract. For a reasonable sound and complete proof calculus for firstorder logic consider the problem to decide, given a sentence of firstorder logic and a natural number n, whet...
In this paper we investigate the purely logical rule of term induction, i.e. induction deriving numerals instead of arbitrary terms. In this system it is not possible to bound the ...
The complexity of set constraints has been extensively studied over the last years and was often found quite high. At the lower end of expressiveness, there are atomic set constra...
In the automata-theoretic approach to verification, we translate specifications to automata. Complexity considerations motivate the distinction between different types of automata...
