We introduce an approach that aims to combine the usage of satisfiability modulo theories (SMT) solvers with the Combinatory Logic Synthesizer (CL)S framework. (CL)S is a tool for the automatic composition of software components from a user-specified repository. The framework yields a tree grammar that contains all composed terms that comply with a target type. Type specifications for (CL)S are based on combinatory logic with intersection types. Our approach translates the tree grammar into SMT functions, which allows the consideration of additional domain-specific constraints. We demonstrate the usefulness of our approach in several experiments.

The expressive power of interval temporal logics (ITLs) makes them really fascinating, and one of the most natural choices as specification and planning language. However, for a long time, due to their high computational complexity, they were considered not suitable for practical purposes. The recent discovery of several computationally well-behaved ITLs has finally changed the scenario. In this paper, we investigate the finite satisfiability and model checking problems for the ITL D featuring the sub-interval relation, under the homogeneity assumption (that constrains a proposition letter to hold over an interval if and only if it holds over all its points). First we prove that the satisfiability problem for D, over finite linear orders, is PSPACE-complete; then we show that its model checking problem, over finite Kripke structures, is PSPACE-complete as well. The paper enrich the set of tractable interval temporal logics with a meaningful representative.
To demonstrate the advantage of quantum computation, many attempts have been made to attack classically intractable problems, such as the satisfiability problem (SAT), with quantum computer. To use quantum algorithms to solve these NP-hard problems, a quantum oracle with quantum circuit implementation is usually required. In this manuscript, we first introduce a novel algorithm to synthesize quantum logic in the Conjunctive Normal Form (CNF) model. Compared with linear ancillary qubits in the implementation of Qiskit open-source framework, our algorithm can synthesize an m clauses n variables k-CNF with $O(k^2 m^2/n)$ quantum gates by only using three ancillary qubits. Both the size and depth of the circuit can be further compressed with the increase in the number of ancillary qubits. When the number of ancillary qubits is $Omega(m^epsilon)$ (for any $epsilon > 0$), the size of the quantum circuit given by the algorithm is O(km), which is asymptotically optimal. Furthermore, we design another algorithm to optimize the depth of the quantum circuit with only a small increase in the size of the quantum circuit. Experiments show that our algorithms have great improvement in size and depth compared with the previous algorithms.
We introduce a modal logic for describing statistical knowledge, which we call statistical epistemic logic. We propose a Kripke model dealing with probability distributions and stochastic assignments, and show a stochastic semantics for the logic. To our knowledge, this is the first semantics for modal logic that can express the statistical knowledge dependent on non-deterministic inputs and the statistical significance of observed results. By using statistical epistemic logic, we express a notion of statistical secrecy with a confidence level. We also show that this logic is useful to formalize statistical hypothesis testing and differential privacy in a simple and abstract manner.
Let S be a commutative semiring. M. Droste and P. Gastin have introduced in 2005 weighted monadic second order logic WMSOL with weights in S. They use a syntactic fragment RMSOL of WMSOL to characterize word functions (power series) recognizable by weighted automata, where the semantics of quantifiers is used both as arithmetical operations and, in the boolean case, as quantification. Already in 2001, B. Courcelle, J.Makowsky and U. Rotics have introduced a formalism for graph parameters definable in Monadic Second order Logic, here called MSOLEVAL with values in a ring R. Their framework can be easily adapted to semirings S. This formalism clearly separates the logical part from the arithmetical part and also applies to word functions. In this paper we give two proofs that RMSOL and MSOLEVAL with values in S have the same expressive power over words. One proof shows directly that MSOLEVAL captures the functions recognizable by weighted automata. The other proof shows how to translate the formalisms from one into the other.
Linear temporal logic was introduced in order to reason about reactive systems. It is often considered with respect to infinite words, to specify the behaviour of long-running systems. One can consider more general models for linear time, using words indexed by arbitrary linear orderings. We investigate the connections between temporal logic and automata on linear orderings, as introduced by Bruy`ere and Carton. We provide a doubly exponential procedure to compute from any LTL formula with Until, Since, and the Stavi connectives an automaton that decides whether that formula holds on the input word. In particular, since the emptiness problem for these automata is decidable, this transformation gives a decision procedure for the satisfiability of the logic.
