On Relation between Constraint Answer Set Programming and Satisfiability Modulo Theories
Constraint answer set programming is a promising research direction that
integrates answer set programming with constraint processing. It is often
informally related to the field of satisfiability modulo theories. Yet, the
exact formal link is obscured as the terminology and concepts used in these two
research areas differ. In this paper, we connect these two research areas by
uncovering the precise formal relation between them. We believe that this work
will booster the cross-fertilization of the theoretical foundations and the
existing solving methods in both areas. As a step in this direction we provide
a translation from constraint answer set programs with integer linear
constraints to satisfiability modulo linear integer arithmetic that paves the
way to utilizing modern satisfiability modulo theories solvers for computing
answer sets of constraint answer set programs.Comment: Under consideration in Theory and Practice of Logic Programming

Perspectives for proof unwinding by programming languages techniques
In this chapter, we propose some future directions of work, potentially
beneficial to Mathematics and its foundations, based on the recent import of
methodology from the theory of programming languages into proof theory. This
scientific essay, written for the audience of proof theorists as well as the
working mathematician, is not a survey of the field, but rather a personal view
of the author who hopes that it may inspire future and fellow researchers
