The mathematical property of inheritance for certain unary fixed point operations has recently been exploited to enable the efficient formulation of arithmetic algorithms and circ...

We study the relationship between least and inflationary fixed-point logic. In 1986, Gurevich and Shelah proved that in the restriction to finite structures, the two logics have t...
We consider the monadic boundedness problem for least fixed points over FO formulae as a decision problem: Given a formula ϕ(X, x), positive in X, decide whether there is a unif...
It is not clear what a system for evidence-based common knowledge should look like if common knowledge is treated as a greatest fixed point. This paper is a preliminary step towar...
