High-order functions and their ordering relations
High-order functions are the sole elements in a class of recursive functions. The functions are related to each other through application, i.e., applying a function to an argument...

Structural Function Inlining Technique for Structurally Recursive XML Queries
Structurally recursive XML queries are an important query class that follows the structure of XML data. At present, it is difficult for XQuery to type and optimize structurally re...

Learning recursive functions: A survey
Studying the learnability of classes of recursive functions has attracted considerable interest for at least four decades. Starting with Gold's (1967) model of learning in th...

Elementary arithmetic
Abstract. There is a very simple way in which the safe/normal variable discipline of Bellantoni-Cook recursion (1992) can be imposed on arithmetical theories like PA: quantify over...

An extremely sharp phase transition threshold for the slow growing hierarchy
We investigate natural systems of fundamental sequences for ordinals below the Howard Bachmann ordinal and study growth rates of the resulting slow growing hierarchies. We consider...

Facilitating formal specification acquisition by using recursive functions on context-free languages
Although formal specification techniques are very useful in software development, the acquisition of formal specification is a difficult task. This paper presents the formal softw...

Inductive and Coinductive Components of Corecursive Functions in Coq
In Constructive Type Theory, recursive and corecursive definitions are subject to syntactic restrictions which guarantee termination for recursive functions and productivity for c...

Programming Inductive Proofs - A New Approach Based on Contextual Types
In this paper, we present an overview to programming with proofs in the reasoning framework, Beluga. Beluga supports the specification of formal systems given by axioms and inferen...

Defining and Reasoning About Recursive Functions: A Practical Tool for the Coq Proof Assistant
Abstract. We present a practical tool for defining and proving properties of recursive functions in the Coq proof assistant. The tool generates from pseudo-code the graph of the in...

Phase Transition Thresholds for Some Natural Subclasses of the Computable Functions
In this paper we first survey recent advances on phase transition phenomena which are related to natural subclasses of the recursive functions. Special emphasis is put on descent ...
