Answering Constraint Path Queries over Graphs

Heyang Li, Anthony Widjaja Lin, Domagoj Vrgoč

Constraints are powerful declarative constructs that allow users to conveniently restrict variable values that potentially range over an infinite domain. In this paper, we propose…

The Role of Logic and Automata in Understanding Transformers

Anthony W. Lin, Pablo Barcelo

The advent of transformers has in recent years led to powerful and revolutionary Large Language Models (LLMs). Despite this, our understanding on the capability of transformers is…

The Counting Power of Transformers

Marco Sälzer, Chris Köcher, Alexander Kozachinskiy +2

Counting properties (e.g. determining whether certain tokens occur more than other tokens in a given input text) have played a significant role in the study of expressiveness of tr…

Complexity of Evaluating GQL Queries

Diego Figueira, Anthony W. Lin, Liat Peterfreund

GQL has recently emerged as the standard query language over graph databases (particularly, the property graph model). Indeed, this is analogous to the role of SQL for relational d…

Revisiting the Expressiveness Landscape of Data Graph Queries

Michael Benedikt, Anthony Widjaja Lin, Di-De Yen

The study of graph queries in database theory has spanned more than three decades, resulting in a multitude of proposals for graph query languages. We can identify three main famil…

The Power of Hard Attention Transformers on Data Sequences: A Formal Language Theoretic Perspective

Pascal Bergsträßer, Chris Köcher, Anthony Widjaja Lin +1

Formal language theory has recently been successfully employed to unravel the power of transformer encoders. This setting is primarily applicable in Natural Language Processing (NL…
