We introduce a new logic, called \emph{cluster first-order logic}, a restricted fragment of first-order logic specifically designed to study order invariance. An order-invariant formula is one on a vocabulary that contains an order;…

In this paper we study the conditional limit theorems for critical continuous-state branching processes with branching mechanism $\psi(\lambda)=\lambda^{1+\alpha}L(1/\lambda)$ where $\alpha\in [0,1]$ and $L$ is slowly varying at $\infty$.…

Let $\mathcal G$ be an addable, minor-closed class of graphs. We prove that the zero-one law holds in monadic second-order logic (MSO) for the random graph drawn uniformly at random from all {\em connected} graphs in $\mathcal G$ on $n$…

We study a new class of so-called rational-infinitely (or quasi-infinitely) divisible probability laws on the real line. The characteristic functions of these distributions are ratios of the characteristic functions of classical infinitely…

Continuous first-order logic is used to apply model-theoretic analysis to analytic structures (e.g. Hilbert spaces, Banach spaces, probability spaces, etc.). Classical computable model theory is used to examine the algorithmic structure of…

Classically, any structure for a signature $\Sigma$ may be completed to a model of a desired regular theory $T$ by means of the chase construction or small object argument. Moreover, this exhibits $\mathrm{Mod}(T)$ as weakly reflective in…

A computable structure $\mathcal{A}$ is decidable if, given a formula $\varphi(\bar{x})$ of elementary first-order logic, and a tuple $\bar{a} \in \mathcal{A}$, we have a decision procedure to decide whether $\varphi$ holds of $\bar{a}$. We…
