The Computability Path Ordering: The End of a Quest
Abstract. In this paper, we first briefly survey automated termination proof methods for higher-order calculi. We then concentrate on the higher-order recursive path ordering, for ...

Semantic characterizations of navigational XPath
We give semantic characterizations of the expressive power of navigational XPath (also called Core XPath) in terms of first order logic. XPath can be used to specify sets of nodes...

MSO on the Infinite Binary Tree: Choice and Order
We give a new proof showing that it is not possible to define in monadic second-order logic (MSO) a choice function on the infinite binary tree. This result was first obtained by G...

Family trees: an ordered dictionary with optimal congestion, locality, degree, and search time
We consider the problem of storing an ordered dictionary data structure over a distributed set of nodes. In contrast to traditional sequential data structures, distributed data st...

Automation of Recursive Path Ordering for Infinite Labelled Rewrite Systems
Abstract. Semantic labelling is a transformational technique for proving termination of Term Rewriting Systems (TRSs). Only its variant with finite sets of labels was used so far i...
