Polynomial interpretations are a standard technique used in almost all tools for proving termination of term rewrite systems (TRSs) automatically. Traditionally, one applies interp...

A fundamental result of Büchi states that the set of monadic second-order formulas true in the structure (Nat, <) is decidable. A natural question is: what monadic predicates ...
This paper deals with test case selection from axiomatic specifications whose axioms are quantifier-free first-order formulas with equality. We first prove the existence of an ide...
Courcelle's famous theorem from 1990 states that any property of graphs definable in monadic second-order logic (MSO2) can be decided in linear time on any class of graphs of ...
The complexity of infinite words is considered from the point of view of a transformation with a Mealy machine that is the simplest model of a finite automaton transducer. We are ...
