Abstract. Expansions of the natural number ordering by unary predicates are studied, using logics which in expressive power are located between first-order and monadic second-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...

Abstract. We study the succinctness of monadic second-order logic and a variety of monadic fixed point logics on trees. All these languages are known to have the same expressive p...

Given a regular collection of Mazurkiewicz traces, which can be seen as the behaviours of a finite-state concurrent system, one can associate with it a canonical regular event st...

Abstract. We study the expressiveness of finite message-passing automata with a priori unbounded FIFO channels and show them to capture exactly the class of MSC languages that are...

We show that a slightly extended version of asynchronous cellular automata, relative to any class of pomsets and dags without autoconcurrency, has the same expressive power as the ...
