A well-known result of Shelah and Spencer tells us that the almost sure theory for first order language on the random graph sequence $\left\{G(n, cn^{-1})\right\}$ is not complete. This paper proposes and proves what the complete set of…

In this paper we consider first-order logic theorem proving and model building via approximation and instantiation. Given a clause set we propose its approximation into a simplified clause set where satisfiability is decidable. The…

Given a partition of an n element set into equivalence classes, we consider time-space tradeoffs for representing it to support the query that asks whether two given elements are in the same equivalence class. This has various applications…

Given a sequence $\mathscr{A}=\{a_0<a_1<a_2\ldots\}\subseteq \mathbb{N}$, let $r_{\mathscr{A},h}(n)$ denote the number of ways $n$ can be written as the sum of $h$ elements of $\mathscr{A}$. Fixing $h\geq 2$, we show that if $f$ is a…

We consider graph properties that can be checked from labels, i.e., bit sequences, of logarithmic length attached to vertices. We prove that there exists such a labeling for checking a first-order formula with free set variables in the…

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…

The celebrated theorem of Komlos asserts that L1-boundedness is sufficient for a given sequence of functions to contain a subsequence along which (in a "lacunary" manner), and along whose every further subsequence ("hereditarily"), a strong…

We consider the enumeration problem of first-order queries over structures of bounded degree. It was shown that this problem is in the Constant-Delaylin class. An enumeration problem belongs to Constant-Delaylin if for an input of size n it…

Let $\mathcal F=(F, +. \cdot, <, 0, 1, \dots)$ be a definably complete locally o-minimal expansion of an ordered field. We demonstrate the existence of definable quotients of definable sets by definable equivalence relations when several…

Let $\Omega(n)$ denote the number of prime factors of $n$. We show that for any bounded $f\colon\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{C}$ one has \[ \frac{1}{N}\sum_{n=1}^N\, f(\Omega(n)+1)=\frac{1}{N}\sum_{n=1}^N\, f(\Omega(n))+\mathrm{o}_{N\to\infty}(1).…

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…

This paper has been withdrawn. This paper focuses on the admissibility condition for fractional-order singular system with order $\alpha \in (0,1)$. The definitions of regularity, impulse-free and admissibility are given first, then a…

For a sequence of random structures with $n$-element domains over a relational signature, we define its first order (FO) complexity as a certain subset in the Banach space $\ell^{\infty}/c_0$. The well-known FO zero-one law and FO…

We say that a first order formula $\Phi$ defines a graph $G$ if $\Phi$ is true on $G$ and false on every graph $G'$ non-isomorphic with $G$. Let $D(G)$ be the minimal quantifier rank of a such formula. We prove that, if $G$ is a tree of…

Let $(\Omega,\mathcal{B},P)$ be a probability space, $\mathcal{A}\subset\mathcal{B}$ a sub-$\sigma$-field, and $\mu$ a regular conditional distribution for $P$ given $\mathcal{A}$. Necessary and sufficient conditions for $\mu(\omega)(A)$ to…

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…

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…

A regular language has the zero-one law if its asymptotic density converges to either zero or one. We prove that the class of all zero-one languages is closed under Boolean operations and quotients. Moreover, we prove that a regular…

The primary purpose of this article is to show that a certain natural set of axioms yields a completeness result for continuous first-order logic. In particular, we show that in continuous first-order logic a set of formulae is (completely)…
