We show undecidability of hereditary history preserving simulation<br />for finite asynchronous transition systems by a reduction from the halting<br />problem of deterministic Turing machines. To make the proof more<br />transparent we introduce an intermediate problem of deciding the winner<br />in domino snake games. First we reduce the halting problem of deterministic<br />Turing machines to domino snake games. Then we show how to<br />model a domino snake game by a hereditary history simulation game on<br />a pair of finite asynchronous transition systems.

Turing machines as a model of intelligence can be motivated under some assumptions, both mathematical and philosophical. Some of these are about the possibility, the necessity, and the limits of representing problem solving by mechanical means. The assumptions about representation that we consider in this paper are related to information representability and availability, processing as solving, nonessentiality of complexity issues, and finiteness, discreteness and sequentiality of the representation. We discuss these assumptions and particularly something that might happen if they were to be rejected or weakened. Tinkering with these assumptions sheds light on the import of alternative computational models.

It now appears that quantum computers are poised to enter the world of computing and establish its dominance, especially, in the cloud. Turing machines (classical computers) tied to the laws of classical physics will not vanish from our lives but begin to play a subordinate role to quantum computers tied to the enigmatic laws of quantum physics that deal with such non-intuitive phenomena as superposition, entanglement, collapse of the wave function, and teleportation, all occurring in Hilbert space. The aim of this 3-part paper is to introduce the readers to a core set of quantum algorithms based on the postulates of quantum mechanics, and reveal the amazing power of quantum computing.

Higher-Order Fixpoint Logic (HFL) is a modal specification language whose expressive power reaches far beyond that of Monadic Second-Order Logic, achieved through an incorporation of a typed λ-calculus into the modal μ-calculus. Its model checking problem on finite transition systems is decidable, albeit of high complexity, namely k-EXPTIME-complete for formulas that use functions of type order at most k < 0. In this paper we present a fragment with a presumably easier model checking problem. We show that so-called tail-recursive formulas of type order k can be model checked in (k − 1)-EXPSPACE, and also give matching lower bounds. This yields generic results for the complexity of bisimulation-invariant non-regular properties, as these can typically be defined in HFL.
