We study extensions of first-order logic over the reals with different types of transitive-closure operators as query languages for constraint databases that can be described by...
We show that no Markovian Coupling argument can prove rapid mixing of the Jerrum-Sinclair Markov chain for sampling almost uniformly from the set of perfect and near perfect match...
Abstract. We have designed and implemented a type inference algorithm for the Self language. The algorithm can guarantee the safety and disambiguity of message sends, and provide u...

Unfoldings are a technique for verification of concurrent and distributed systems introduced by McMillan. The method constructs a finite complete prefix, which can be seen as a sym...
Recently, considerable focus has been given to the problem of determining the boundary between tractable and intractable planning problems. To this end, we present complexity resu...
