Feedback, trace and fixed-point semantics

P. Katis, Nicoletta Sabadini, Robert F.C. Walters (2010)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

We introduce a notion of category with feedback-with-delay, closely related to the notion of traced monoidal category, and show that the Circ construction of [15] is the free category with feedback on a symmetric monoidal category. Combining with the Int construction of Joyal et al. [12] we obtain a description of the free compact closed category on a symmetric monoidal category. We thus obtain a categorical analogue of the classical localization of a ring with respect to a multiplicative subset....

Finding H -partitions efficiently

Simone Dantas, Celina M. H. de Figueiredo, Sylvain Gravier, Sulamita Klein (2005)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

We study the concept of an H -partition of the vertex set of a graph G , which includes all vertex partitioning problems into four parts which we require to be nonempty with only external constraints according to the structure of a model graph H , with the exception of two cases, one that has already been classified as polynomial, and the other one remains unclassified. In the context of more general vertex-partition problems, the problems addressed in this paper have these properties: non-list, 4 -part,...

Finite automata and algebraic extensions of function fields

Kiran S. Kedlaya (2006)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

We give an automata-theoretic description of the algebraic closure of the rational function field 𝔽 q ( t ) over a finite field 𝔽 q , generalizing a result of Christol. The description occurs within the Hahn-Mal’cev-Neumann field of “generalized power series” over 𝔽 q . In passing, we obtain a characterization of well-ordered sets of rational numbers whose base p expansions are generated by a finite automaton, and exhibit some techniques for computing in the algebraic closure; these include an adaptation to positive...

Finite models and finitely many variables

Anuj Dawar (1999)

Banach Center Publications

This paper is a survey of results on finite variable logics in finite model theory. It focusses on the common underlying techniques that unite many such results.
