  1. Symmetric Circuits and Model-Theoretic Logics

    The question of whether there is a logic that characterises polynomial-time is arguably the most important open question in finite model theory. The study of extensions of fixed-point logic are of central importance to this question. It was shown by Anderson and Dawar that fixed-point logic with

  2. Descriptive complexity of constraint problems

    … power necessary to define these problems in a logic. We obtain several results in this direction. For instance, we show that Schaefer's dichotomy result for the case of CSPs over the Boolean domain can be framed as a definability result: Either a CSP is definable in fixed-point logic with rank …
