Recurrent GraphNeural NetworkswithSet-BasedAggregation

The paper introduces recurrent Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) that use set-based aggregation and establishes conditions that can be verified directly from the network weights. It proves a two‑directional equivalence between these networks and the Boolean closure of reachability and safety properties, corresponding to the fragment BΣ◦₁ of the modal μ‑calculus. This equivalence allows for verifiable symbolic explanations of networks that satisfy the identified conditions, without relying on counting logic or external halting signals.

Complete Identification of Deep ReLU Networks through {\L}ukasiewicz Logic

The paper presents a complete characterization of when two deep ReLU networks realize the same function, showing that this occurs iff one can be transformed into the other using a set of axioms from many‑valued logic. It introduces a symbolic calculus that maps networks to substitution graphs, proves a completeness theorem linking equivalent formulas, and provides an algorithm to reconstruct networks from these graphs. The framework yields a new compositional normal form for MV logic that preserves the algebraic structure of deep ReLU networks.

The Boolean Power of ReLU

arXiv:2608. 12617v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We prove that, on finite simple undirected graphs equipped with a single Boolean node feature, the Boolean queries expressible in $\Sigma$-MPLang, for any collection $\Sigma$ of eventually constant activation functions and with arbitrary real coefficients, form a strict subclass of the Boolean queries expressible in ReLU-MPLang.

Lost in Aggregation: On a Fundamental Expressivity Limit of Message-Passing Graph Neural Networks

arXiv:2603. 14846v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We define an information-complexity property for aggregation functions, capturing a vast range of practical aggregations, and prove that any Message-Passing Graph Neural Network (MP-GNN) model with such aggregations induces only a polynomial number of equivalence classes on all graphs - while the number of non-isomorphic graphs is super-exponential (in number of vertices).
