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 …

Binary counting is hard (for context-free grammars)
Michaël Cadilhac recently (on Autoboz) asked the following problem: Take n > 0 and consider the alphabet A_n = { 2^i | i ≤ n }. Let L_n be the set of words over A_n …

Two criteria to prove the inherent ambiguity of bounded context-free languages
A context-free language is inherently ambiguous if any grammar recognizing it is ambiguous, i.e. there is a word that is generated in two different ways. Deciding the inherent ambiguity of a context-free language is a …

Martin’s proof of Borel determinacy
Donald Martin established Borel determinacy in 1975: in every Gale-Stewart game with a Borel winning condition, either player I or player II has a winning strategy. We present Martin’s proof under a different perspective (bottom-up …

Memory in games and universal graphs
I will present recent characterisations of positionality and finite memory in infinite duration games by means of universal graphs. The goal is to derive properties of games with a given objective W by understanding the …

Enumerating Answers to Ontology Mediated Queries
A known dichotomy states that for conjunctive queries (CQs) with no self-joins the set of answers can be enumerated with linear preprocessing* and constant delay* if and only** if the query is both acyclic and …
