It is an open problem whether definability in Propositional Dynamic Logic (PDL) on forests is decidable. Based on an algebraic characterization by Bojanczyk, et. al.,(2012) in terms of forest algebras, Straubing (2013) described an approach to PDL based on a k-fold iterated distributive law. A proof that all languages satisfying such a k-fold iterated distributive law are in PDL would settle decidability of PDL. We solve this problem in the case k=2: All languages recognized by forest algebras satisfying a 2-fold iterated distributive law are in PDL. Furthermore, we show that this class is decidable. This provides a novel nontrivial decidable subclass of PDL, and demonstrates the viability of the proposed approach to deciding PDL in general.
We develop a new algebraic framework to reason about languages of Mazurkiewicz traces. This framework supports true concurrency and provides a non-trivial generalization of the wreath product operation to the trace setting. A novel local wreath produ
We develop a theory of semidirect products of partial groups and localities. Our concepts generalize the notions of direct products of partial groups and localities, and of semidirect products of groups.
Let $varphi: {mathbb P}^1 longrightarrow {mathbb P}^1$ be a rational map of degree greater than one defined over a number field $k$. For each prime ${mathfrak p}$ of good reduction for $varphi$, we let $varphi_{mathfrak p}$ denote the reduction of $v
We develop new algebraic tools to reason about concurrent behaviours modelled as languages of Mazurkiewicz traces and asynchronous automata. These tools reflect the distributed nature of traces and the underlying causality and concurrency between eve
Let $m$ be a positive integer and let $Omega$ be a finite set. The $m$-closure of $Gle$Sym$(Omega)$ is the largest permutation group on $Omega$ having the same orbits as $G$ in its induced action on the Cartesian product $Omega^m$. The exact formula
