We present polygraphic programs, a subclass of Albert Burronis polygraphs, as a computational model, showing how these objects can be seen as first-order functional programs. We prove that the model is Turing complete. We use polygraphic interpretations, a termination proof method introduced by the second author, to characterize polygraphic programs that compute in polynomial time. We conclude with a characterization of polynomial time functions and non-deterministic polynomial time functions.

We study idempotents in intensional Martin-Lof type theory, and in particular the question of when and whether they split. We show that in the presence of propositional truncation and Voevodskys univalence axiom, there exist idempotents that do not s plit; thus in plain MLTT not all idempotents can be proven to split. On the other hand, assuming only function extensionality, an idempotent can be split if and only if its witness of idempotency satisfies one extra coherence condition. Both proofs are inspired by parallel results of Lurie in higher category theory, showing that ideas from higher category theory and homotopy theory can have applications even in ordinary MLTT. Finally, we show that although the witness of idempotency can be recovered from a splitting, the one extra coherence condition cannot in general; and we construct the type of fully coherent idempotents, by splitting an idempotent on the type of partially coherent ones. Our results have been formally verified in the proof assistant Coq.
The elimination distance to some target graph property P is a general graph modification parameter introduced by Bulian and Dawar. We initiate the study of elimination distances to graph properties expressible in first-order logic. We delimit the pro blems fixed-parameter tractability by identifying sufficient and necessary conditions on the structure of prefixes of first-order logic formulas. Our main result is the following meta-theorem: for every graph property P expressible by a first order-logic formula phiin Sigma_3, that is, of the form phi=exists x_1exists x_2cdots exists x_r forall y_1forall y_2cdots forall y_s exists z_1exists z_2cdots exists z_t psi, where psi is a quantifier-free first-order formula, checking whether the elimination distance of a graph to P does not exceed k, is fixed-parameter tractable parameterized by k. Properties of graphs expressible by formulas from Sigma_3 include being of bounded degree, excluding a forbidden subgraph, or containing a bounded dominating set. We complement this theorem by showing that such a general statement does not hold for formulas with even slightly more expressive prefix structure: there are formulas phiin Pi_3, for which computing elimination distance is W[2]-hard.
Craig Squier proved that, if a monoid can be presented by a finite convergent string rewriting system, then it satisfies the homological finiteness condition left-FP3. Using this result, he constructed finitely presentable monoids with a decidable wo rd problem, but that cannot be presented by finite convergent rewriting systems. Later, he introduced the condition of finite derivation type, which is a homotopical finiteness property on the presentation complex associated to a monoid presentation. He showed that this condition is an invariant of finite presentations and he gave a constructive way to prove this finiteness property based on the computation of the critical branchings: being of finite derivation type is a necessary condition for a finitely presented monoid to admit a finite convergent presentation. This survey presents Squiers results in the contemporary language of polygraphs and higher-dimensional categories, with new proofs and relations between them.
There are different notions of computation, the most popular being monads, applicative functors, and arrows. In this article we show that these three notions can be seen as monoids in a monoidal category. We demonstrate that at this level of abstract ion one can obtain useful results which can be instantiated to the different notions of computation. In particular, we show how free constructions and Cayley representations for monoids translate into useful constructions for monads, applicative functors, and arrows. Moreover, the uniform presentation of all three notions helps in the analysis of the relation between them.

An {omega}-language is a set of infinite words over a finite alphabet X. We consider the class of recursive {omega}-languages, i.e. the class of {omega}-languages accepted by Turing machines with a Buchi acceptance condition, which is also the class {Sigma}11 of (effective) analytic subsets of X{omega} for some finite alphabet X. We investigate here the notion of ambiguity for recursive {omega}-languages with regard to acceptance by Buchi Turing machines. We first present in detail essentials on the literature on {omega}-languages accepted by Turing Machines. Then we give a complete and broad view on the notion of ambiguity and unambiguity of Buchi Turing machines and of the {omega}-languages they accept. To obtain our new results, we make use of results and methods of effective descriptive set theory.
