We investigate the phenomenon of non-recursive trade-offs between descriptional systems in an abstract fashion. We aim at categorizing non-recursive trade-offs by bounds on their g...
We give a complexity theoretic classification of homomorphism problems for graphs and, more generally, relational structures obtained by restricting the left hand side structure ...
Logic languages based on the theory of rational, possibly infinite, trees have much appeal in that rational trees allow for faster unification (due to the safe omission of the occ...

Scenario languages based on Message Sequence Charts (MSCs) have been widely studied in the last decade [21,20,3,15,12,19,14]. The high expressive power of MSCs renders many basic ...
The theorem of factorization forests of Imre Simon shows the existence of nested factorizations -- `a la Ramsey -- for finite words. This theorem has important applications in sem...
