Using this semantics, we define two types of entailment: strong and weak. We show that a normal, logic program strongly entails a sentence under C4 if, and only if, the program entails that sentence under the well founded semantics and it weakly entails a sentence if, and only if, the program entails that sentence under the two-valued stable model semantics in case the program has any stable models. We argue that this shows that the difference between the well founded semantics and the stable model semantics can be characterized in terms of their attitude to what we call contested information. We use this insight to propose a general theory of contested reasoning.","PeriodicalId":382663,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 11th Annual IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science","volume":"53 13","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132287079","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Interpreting the predicate y=nx as a complete n-ary tree, we show that the predicate y=(n+1)x cannot be defined in FO(D/sub n/) with linear order.

Complexity considerations motivate the distinction between different types of automata. Already in the 60's, it was known that deterministic Buchi word automata are less expressive than nondeterministic Buchi word automata. The proof is easy and can be stated in a few lines. In the late 60's, Rabin proved that Buchi tree automata are less expressive than Rabin tree automata. This proof is much harder. In this work we relate the expressiveness gap between deterministic and nondeterministic Buchi word automata and the expressiveness gap between Buchi and Rabin tree automata. We consider tree automata that recognize derived languages. For a word language L, the derived language of L, denoted L/spl Delta/, is the set of all trees all of whose paths are in L. Since often we want to specify that all the computations of the program satisfy some property, the interest in derived languages is clear. Our main result shows that L is recognizable by a nondeterministic Buchi word automaton but not by a deterministic Buchi word automaton iff L/spl Delta/ is recognizable by a Rabin tree automaton and not by a Buchi tree automaton. Our result provides a simple explanation to the expressiveness gap between Buchi and Rabin tree automata. Since the gap between deterministic and nondeterministic Buchi word automata is well understood, our result also provides a characterization of derived languages that can be recognized by Buchi tree automata. Finally, it also provides an exponential determinization of Buchi tree automata that recognize derived languages.","PeriodicalId":382663,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 11th Annual IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128939329","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our proof uses a new Ehrenfeucht-Fraisse (EF) game designed specifically for TL. These properties can all be expressed in first-order logic with quantifier depth and size O(log k), and we use them to observe some interesting relationships between TL and first-order expressibility. We then use the EF game in a novel way to effectively characterize (1) the TL properties expressible without Until, as well as (2) those expressible without both Until and Next. By playing the game \"on finite automata\", we prove that the automata recognizing languages expressible in each of the two fragments have distinctive structural properties. The characterization for the first fragment was originally proved by Cohen, Perrin, and Pin (1993) using sophisticated semigroup-theoretic techniques. They asked whether such a characterization exists for the second fragment. The technique we develop is general and can potentially be applied in other contexts.","PeriodicalId":382663,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 11th Annual IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120944741","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Constraint databases are formally modeled as finite relational structures embedded in some fixed infinite structure. We concentrate on problems of elimination of constraints, reducing quantification range to the active domain of the database and obtaining new complexity bounds. We show that for a large class of signatures, including real arithmetic constraints, unbounded quantification can be eliminated. That is, one can transform a sentence containing unrestricted quantification over the infinite universe to get an equivalent sentence in which quantifiers range over the finite relational structure. We use this result to get a new complexity upper bound on the evaluation of real arithmetic constraints. We also expand upon techniques for getting upper bounds on the expressiveness of constraint query languages, and apply it to a number of first-order and second-order query languages.","PeriodicalId":382663,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 11th Annual IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130821901","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
