We propose to build an automated reasoning system for first-order logic (FOL) by translating reasoning problems to a fragment of FOL called coherent logic (CL) and then solving t...
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...
We show the following results regarding complete sets. • NP-complete sets and PSPACE-complete sets are many-one autoreducible. • Complete sets of any level of PH, MODPH, or th...
We prove that every disjoint NP-pair is polynomial-time, many-one equivalent to the canonical disjoint NP-pair of some propositional proof system. Therefore, the degree structure ...
The online squarefree recognition problem is to detect the first occurrence of a square in a string whose characters are provided as input one at a time. We present an efficient a...
