We introduce a precise interprocedural effect analysis for programs with mutable state, dynamic object allocation, and dynamic dispatch. Our analysis is precise even in the presence of dynamic dispatch where the context-insensitive estimate on the number o ...
This thesis is in the context of representation theory of finite groups. More specifically, it studies biset functors. In this thesis, I focus on two biset functors: the Burnside functor and the functor of p-permutation modules. For the Burnside functor we ...
Let k be a field of characteristic p, where p is a prime number, let pp_k(G) be the Grothendieck group of p-permutation kG-modules, where G is a finite group, and let Cpp_k(G) be pp_k(G) tensored with the field of complex numbers C. In this article, we fin ...

We propose and study the notions of behaviour type and composition operator making a first step towards the definition of a formal framework for studying behaviour composition in a setting sufficiently general to provide insight into how the component-base ...
As the classic transactional abstraction is sometimes considered too restrictive in leveraging parallelism, a lot of work has been devoted to devising relaxed transactional models with the goal of improving concurrency. Nevertheless, the quest for improvin ...
The paper proposes a variant of sesqui-pushout rewriting (SqPO) that allows one to develop the theory of nested application conditions (NACs) for arbitrary rule spans; this is a considerable generalisation compared with existing results for NACs, which onl ...
Based on a concise but comprehensive overview of some fundamental properties required from component-based frameworks, namely compositionality, incrementality, flattening, modularity and expressiveness, we review three modifications of the semantics of glu ...
We propose an algorithmic framework for convex minimization problems of a composite function with two terms: a self-concordant function and a possibly nonsmooth regularization term. Our method is a new proximal Newton algorithm that features a local quadra ...
