Vertex-minors, monadic second-order logic, and a conjecture by Seese
We prove that one can express the vertex-minor relation on finite undirected graphs by formulas of monadic second-order logic (with no edge set quantification) extended with a p...

Methods for Knowledge Based Controlling of Distributed Systems
Abstract. Controlling concurrent systems to impose some global invariant is an undecidable problem. One can gain decidability at the expense of reducing concurrency. Even under thi...

Boundedness of Regular Path Queries in Data Integration Systems
In this paper we study the problem of deciding whether a regular path query over views in data-integration systems can be re-expressed without recursion. The problem becomes chall...
