Abstract
We specify the frontier of decidability for fragments of the first-order theory of ordinal multiplication. We give a NEXPTIME lower bound for the complexity of the existential fragment of for every ordinal . Moreover, we prove (by reduction from Hilbert Tenth Problem) that the -fragment of is undecidable for every ordinal .
