Comparing the succinctness of monadic query languages over finite trees

Martin Grohe, Nicole Schweikardt (2004)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

Similarity:

We study the succinctness of monadic second-order logic and a variety of monadic fixed point logics on trees. All these languages are known to have the same expressive power on trees, but some can express the same queries much more succinctly than others. For example, we show that, under some complexity theoretic assumption, monadic second-order logic is non-elementarily more succinct than monadic least fixed point logic, which in turn is non-elementarily more succinct than monadic datalog. Succinctness...

On characteristic formulae for Event-Recording Automata

Omer Landry Nguena Timo, Pierre-Alain Reynier (2013)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

Similarity:

A standard bridge between automata theory and logic is provided by the notion of characteristic formula. This paper investigates this problem for the class of event-recording automata (ERA), a subclass of timed automata in which clocks are associated with actions and that enjoys very good closure properties. We first study the problem of expressing characteristic formulae for ERA in Event-Recording Logic (ERL ), a logic introduced by Sorea to express event-based timed specifications....

What Is the Sense in Logic and Philosophy of Language

Urszula Wybraniec-Skardowska (2020)

Bulletin of the Section of Logic

Similarity:

In the paper, various notions of the logical semiotic sense of linguistic expressions – namely, syntactic and semantic, intensional and extensional – are considered and formalised on the basis of a formal-logical conception of any language L characterised categorially in the spirit of certain Husserl's ideas of pure grammar, Leśniewski-Ajdukiewicz's theory of syntactic/semantic categories and, in accordance with Frege's ontological canons, Bocheński's and some of Suszko's ideas of language...
