Summary on Grant Application Form |
Composition theorems are tools which reduce reasoning about compound data structures to reasoning about their parts. Technically they are difficult and on the whole have been ignored by Theoretical Computer Scientists who employ other methods (such as the use of automata). The aim is to apply composition theorems to understand inexpressibility over finite structures and to apply them to understand decidable red time logics.
