The dependency pairs method is one of the most powerful technique for proving termination of rewriting and it is currently central in most automatic termination provers. Recently,...
One of the previous articles in this column was devoted to the zero-one laws for a number of logics playing prominent role in finite model theory: first-order logic FO, the extens...
Ahlswede and Winter [AW02] introduced a Chernoff bound for matrix-valued random variables, which is a non-trivial generalization of the usual Chernoff bound for real-valued random...
Consider a setting where nodes can vary their transmission power thereby changing the network topology, the goal of topology control is to reduce the transmission power while ensu...
Proof assistants based on type theories, such as Coq and Lego, allow users to omit subterms on input that can be inferred automatically. While those mechanisms are well known, ad-h...
