On Tractability and Congruence Distributivity
Constraint languages that arise from finite algebras have recently been the object of study, especially in connection with the Dichotomy Conjecture of Feder and Vardi. An importa...

Monadic Chain Logic Over Iterations and Applications to Pushdown Systems
Logical properties of iterations of relational structures are studied and these decidability results are applied to the model checking of a powerful extension of pushdown systems....

A Characterisation of First-Order Constraint Satisfaction Problems
Abstract. We describe simple algebraic and combinatorial characterisations of finite relational core structures admitting finitely many obstructions. As a consequence, we show th...

Fixed-Parameter Hierarchies inside PSPACE
Treewidth measures the ”tree-likeness” of structures. Many NP-complete problems, e.g., propositional satisfiability, are tractable on bounded-treewidth structures. In this wo...

Variables as Resource in Hoare Logics
Hoare logic is bedevilled by complex but coarse side conditions on the use of variables. We define a logic, free of side conditions, which permits more precise statements of a pr...
