Let $\alpha\in(0,1)_\mathbb{R}$ be irrational and $G_n = G_{{n, 1/n}^\alpha}$ be the random graph with edge probability $1/n^\alpha$; we know that it satisfies the 0-1 law for first order logic. We deal with the failure of the 0-1 law for…

Let G_n be the random graph on [n]= {1, ...,n} with the possible edge {i,j} having probability being p_{|i-j|}= 1/|i-j|^alpha, alpha in (0,1) irrational. We prove that the zero one law (for first order logic) holds. The paper is continued…

We find a logic really stronger than first order for the random graph with edge probability $\frac 12$ but satisfies the 0-1 law. This means that on the one hand it satisfies the 0-1 law, e.g. for the random graph ${\mathcal G}_{n,1/2}$ and…

In this paper, we prove that for every positive $\varepsilon$, there exists an $\alpha\in(1/(k-1),1/(k-1)+\varepsilon)$ such that the binomial random graph $G(n,n^{-\alpha})$ does not obey 0-1 law w.r.t. first order sentences with k…

We give a framework for dealing with 0-1 laws (for first order logic) such that expanding by further random structure tend to give us another case of the framework. From another perspective we deal with 0-1 laws when the number of solutions…

Let us draw a graph R on {0,1,...,n-1} by having an edge {i,j} with probability p_(|i-j|), where sum_i p_i is finite and let M_n=(n,<,R). For a first order sentence psi let a^n_psi be the probability of ``M_n satisfies psi''. We prove that…

We consider first order expressible properties of random perfect graphs. That is, we pick a graph $G_n$ uniformly at random from all (labelled) perfect graphs on $n$ vertices and consider the probability that it satisfies some graph…

Shelah Spencer [ShSp:304] proved the 0-1 law for the random graphs G(n,p_n), p_n=n^{- alpha}, alpha in (0,1) irrational (set of nodes in [n]= {1, ...,n}, the edges are drawn independently, probability of edge is p_n). One may wonder what…

We consider the random graph M^n_{\bar{p}} on the set [n], were the probability of {x,y} being an edge is p_{|x-y|}, and \bar{p}=(p_1,p_2,p_3,...) is a series of probabilities. We consider the set of all \bar{q} derived from \bar{p} by…
