Advances and applications of automata on words and trees : abstracts collection
From 12.12.2010 to 17.12.2010, the Dagstuhl Seminar 10501 "Advances and Applications of Automata on Words and Trees" was held in Schloss Dagstuhl - Leibniz Center for Informatics. During the seminar, several participants presented their current research, and ongoing work and open problems were discussed. Abstracts of the presentations given during the seminar as well as abstracts of seminar results and ideas are put together in this paper. The first section describes the seminar topics and goals in general. Links to extended abstracts or full papers are provided, if available
On the Herbrand content of LK
We present a structural representation of the Herbrand content of LK-proofs
with cuts of complexity prenex Sigma-2/Pi-2. The representation takes the form
of a typed non-deterministic tree grammar of order 2 which generates a finite
language of first-order terms that appear in the Herbrand expansions obtained
through cut-elimination. In particular, for every Gentzen-style reduction
between LK-proofs we study the induced grammars and classify the cases in which
language equality and inclusion hold.Comment: In Proceedings CL&C 2016, arXiv:1606.0582
Graph-Based Shape Analysis Beyond Context-Freeness
We develop a shape analysis for reasoning about relational properties of data
structures. Both the concrete and the abstract domain are represented by
hypergraphs. The analysis is parameterized by user-supplied indexed graph
grammars to guide concretization and abstraction. This novel extension of
context-free graph grammars is powerful enough to model complex data structures
such as balanced binary trees with parent pointers, while preserving most
desirable properties of context-free graph grammars. One strength of our
analysis is that no artifacts apart from grammars are required from the user;
it thus offers a high degree of automation. We implemented our analysis and
successfully applied it to various programs manipulating AVL trees,
(doubly-linked) lists, and combinations of both
Principles and Implementation of Deductive Parsing
We present a system for generating parsers based directly on the metaphor of
parsing as deduction. Parsing algorithms can be represented directly as
deduction systems, and a single deduction engine can interpret such deduction
systems so as to implement the corresponding parser. The method generalizes
easily to parsers for augmented phrase structure formalisms, such as
definite-clause grammars and other logic grammar formalisms, and has been used
for rapid prototyping of parsing algorithms for a variety of formalisms
including variants of tree-adjoining grammars, categorial grammars, and
lexicalized context-free grammars.Comment: 69 pages, includes full Prolog cod
