Orthologic with Axioms

Viktor Kuncak, Simon Guilloud

We study the proof theory and algorithms for orthologic, a logical system based on ortholattices, which have shown practical relevance in simplification and normalization of verification conditions. Ortholattices weaken Boolean algebras while having po ...

On algebraic array theories

Viktor Kuncak, Rodrigo Raya

Automatic verification of programs manipulating arrays relies on specialised decision procedures. A methodology to classify the theories handled by these procedures is introduced. It is based on decomposition theorems in the style of Feferman and Vaught. T ...

LISA – A Modern Proof System

Viktor Kuncak, Simon Guilloud, Sankalp Gambhir

We present LISA, a proof system and proof assistant for constructing proofs in schematic first-order logic and axiomatic set theory. The logical kernel of the system is a proof checker for first-order logic with equality and schematic predicate and fun ...

Towards a Radical Housing Responsibility

Luca Giovanni Pattaroni, Ifigeneia Dimitrakou

Responsibility—as an analytic or topic of political debate—is out of vogue in critical housing studies. Rather than offering progressive potential, the call for responsibility has been seen to foster neoliberal governance, racial structural violence, and f ...

On Polynomial Algorithms for Normalizing Formulas

Viktor Kuncak, Simon Guilloud, Mario Bucev

We propose a new approach for normalization and simplification of logical formulas. Our approach is based on algorithms for lattice-like structures. Specifically, we present two efficient algorithms for computing a normal form and deciding the word problem ...

The Gray-Wyner Network and Wyner's Common Information for Gaussian Sources

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Erixhen Sula

This paper presents explicit solutions for two related non-convex information extremization problems due to Gray and Wyner in the Gaussian case. The first problem is the Gray-Wyner network subject to a sum-rate constraint on the two private links. Here, ou ...

Nonlocal Effects Reflect the Jamming Criticality in Frictionless Granular Flows Down Inclines

Matthieu Wyart, Hugo Robin Louis Perrin

The jamming transition is accompanied by a rich phenomenology such as hysteresis or nonlocal effects that is still not well understood. Here, we experimentally investigate a model frictionless granular layer flowing down an inclined plane as a way to disen ...

An Ink–and–Paper Automaton: The Conceptual Mechanization of Cognition and the Practical Automation of Reasoning in Leibniz’s De Affectibus (1679)

Simon François Dumas Primbault

On ten loose handwritten folios dating back from April 1679, Leibniz gradually devised, in the course of three days, a full-blown theory of thought that nonetheless remained unpublished and still has received little attention from scholars. Conceiving of a ...

The Complexity of Self-Dual Monotone 7-Input Functions

Giovanni De Micheli, Mathias Soeken, Eleonora Testa, Winston Jason Haaswijk

The study of the complexity of Boolean functions has recently found applications in logic synthesis and optimization algorithms, as for instance in logic rewriting. Previous works have focused on the minimum length of Boolean chains for functions up to 5 i ...

A template for constructing Bayesian networks in forensic biology cases when considering activity level propositions

Christophe Champod, Alex Biedermann

The hierarchy of propositions has been accepted amongst the forensic science community for some time. It is also accepted that the higher up the hierarchy the propositions are, against which the scientist are competent to evaluate their results, the more d ...
