Modal Logics with Counting
Abstract. We present a modal language that includes explicit operators to count the number of elements that a model might include in the extension of a formula, and we discuss how ...

Kernelizations for Parameterized Counting Problems
Abstract. Kernelizations are an important tool in designing fixed parameter algorithms for parameterized decision problems. We introduce an analogous notion for counting problems,...

Adaptive Simulated Annealing: A Near-optimal Connection between Sampling and Counting
We present a near-optimal reduction from approximately counting the cardinality of a discrete set to approximately sampling elements of the set. An important application of our wo...

Logics with Rank Operators
—We introduce extensions of first-order logic (FO) and fixed-point logic (FP) with operators that compute the rank of a definable matrix. These operators are generalizations o...
