First-order query evaluation on structures of bounded degree

Wojciech Kazana ; Luc Segoufin.

We consider the enumeration problem of first-order queries over structures of bounded degree. It was shown that this problem is in the Constant-Delaylin class. An enumeration problem belongs to Constant-Delaylin if for an input of size n it can be solved by: - an O(n) precomputation phase building&nbsp;[&hellip;]

Tree Languages Defined in First-Order Logic with One Quantifier Alternation

Mikolaj Bojanczyk ; Luc Segoufin.

We study tree languages that can be defined in \Delta_2 . These are tree languages definable by a first-order formula whose quantifier prefix is forall exists, and simultaneously by a first-order formula whose quantifier prefix is . For the quantifier free part we consider two signatures, either the&nbsp;[&hellip;]

A decidable characterization of locally testable tree languages

Thomas Place ; Luc Segoufin.

A regular tree language L is locally testable if membership of a tree in L depends only on the presence or absence of some fix set of neighborhoods in the tree. In this paper we show that it is decidable whether a regular tree language is locally testable. The decidability is shown for ranked trees&nbsp;[&hellip;]
