Random graphs in the monadic theory of order
We continue the works of Gurevich-Shelah and Lifsches-Shelah by showing that it is consistent with ZFC that the first-order theory of random graphs is not interpretable in the mon...

Monadic Second-Order Logic for Graphs: Algorithmic and Language Theoretical Applications
This tutorial will present an overview of the use of Monadic Second-Order Logic to describe sets of finite graphs and graph transformations, in relation with the notions of tree-w...

The monadic second-order logic of graphs XV: On a conjecture by D. Seese
A conjecture by D. Seese states that if a set of graphs has a decidable monadic second-order theory, then it is the image of a set of trees under a transformation defined by monad...

Lower Bounds for the Complexity of Monadic Second-Order Logic
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 ...

Composition of Path Transductions
We propose to study two infinite graph transformations that we respectively call bounded and unbounded path transduction. These graph transformations are based on path substitutio...
