Semigroup decomposition and semigroup transformers
Krohn-Rhodes theorem claims that every semigroup can be decomposed into finite groups, and aperiodic semigroups. This theorem has been generalized from finite semigroups to infinite ones, but uses a hairy construct of a wreath product, …

On the complexity of conditional independence
A conditional independence statement says that, for example, random variables (X,Y) and (W,Y,Z) are independent given a random variable (U,V). Cheuk Ting Li showed in 2022 that it is undecidable if a Boolean combination of …

Sampling and enumerating for probabilistic context-free grammars
I'll discuss algorithms for sampling and enumerating terms from a given probabilistic context-free grammar. It will be mostly a "Not my theorem" session, with early contributions from back in 1974, but if time permits I'll …

Finite versus infinite arenas for positionality in infinite duration games
This talk is about positionality (for the protagonist) in infinite duration games, either over finite or over arbitrary arenas. The aim is to compare the two notions. Classically, it is well known that the parity …

Flip-width
I will define a new graph parameter called flip-width. Graph classes of bounded flip-width include classes of bounded expansion of Nesetril and Ossona de Mendez, as well as classes of bounded twin-width of Bonnet, Kim, …

A categorical characterisation of linear regular functions
We consider linear regular string-to-string functions, i.e. functions that are recognized by copyless streaming string transducers, or any of their equivalent models, such as deterministic two-way automata. Although this class of functions is clearly important, …

Querying incomplete numerical data: between certain and possible answers
Queries with aggregation and arithmetic operations, as well as incomplete data, are common in real-world databases, but we lack a good understanding of how they should interact. On the one hand, systems based on SQL …

Monadically Stable Classes of Graphs
Intuitively, a class of graphs is monadically stable if first-order logic cannot encode arbitrary long linear orders in it. While originating from model theory, monadic stability generalizes many combinatorial properties of sparse graph classes such …

Logic and Dynamical Systems
The study of the relationship between logic and topology has a rich and extensive history. One way of exploring this relationship involves examining the formal languages of indiscrete spaces and their discrete representations. The talk …

Equality and zeroness problems of power series for combinatorial enumeration
A power series is constructible differentially finite (CDF) if it satisfies a system of polynomial differential equations [Bergeron & Reutenauer 1990, Bergeron & Sattler 1995]. CDF series generalise algebraic power series and find a natural …

On the growth rate of polyregular functions
Polyregular functions are string-to-string functions that have polynomial size outputs. I will show that a polyregular function has growth rate O(n^k) if and only if it can be defined by an mso transduction of dimension …

Geometry of Vector Addition Systems
We will prove the missing line conjecture for VAS. The proof proceeds in three steps, all based on the basic units of VAS: Periodic sets. 1) Prove an easy special case. 2) Explain all closure …

Model Checking Disjoint-Paths Logic on Topological-Minor-Free Graph Classes
Disjoint-paths logic, denoted FO+DP, extends first-order logic (FO) with atomic predicates dp_k[(x_1, y_1),…,(x_k, y_k)], expressing the existence of internally vertex-disjoint paths between x_i and y_i, for 1 ≤ i ≤ k. In this talk, we …

Reproving combinatorial properties of nowhere-dense graphs using model theory
A pinnacle of sparsity theory, initiated by Ossona de Mendez and Nešetřil, is the result of Grohe, Kreutzer, and Siebertz which identifies subgraf-closed classes of graphs with FPT model checking as exactly nowhere dense classes. …

Orbit-finite systems of inequalities
A system of inequalities is orbit-finite if it is finite up to certain permutations of variables. In this talk, I will describe this concept using interesting examples, and present our recent results on the solvability …
