[article]
2002
arXiv
pre-print
This paper gives a thorough overview of what is known about first-order logic with counting quantifiers and with arithmetic predicates. ...
Applying this theorem, we obtain an easy proof of Ruhl's result that reachability (and similarly, connectivity) in finite graphs is not expressible in first-order logic with unary counting quantifiers ...
Syntax and Semantics First-order logic with unary counting quantifiers, FOunC, is the extension of first-order logic obtained by adding unary counting quantifiers of the form ∃ =x y. ...

Each is implemented through a specific device, i.e., respectively, an extra-logical operator representing numerical abstraction and a non-standard (but still first-order) cardinality quantifier. ...
Along the way, we investigate the logical status of arithmetic, the function of abstraction principles, and the respective merits of various strategies for reducing arithmetical notions to those of a theory ...
A unary quantifier is first-order if and only if it represents a collection of subsets of D (and similarly, a binary quantifier is first-order if and only if it expresses a relation between subsets of ...

Extensions of MSO and the monadic counting hierarchy

We show that over unary vocabularies the logic MSO(R), where MSO is monadic second-order logic and R is the first-order Rescher quantifier, can be characterized by Presburger arithmetic, whereas the logic ...

Modulo quantifiers over functional vocabularies extending addition
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
We show that first order logic (FO) and first order logic extended with modulo counting quantifiers (FOMOD) over purely functional vocabularies which extend addition, satisfy the Crane beach property ( ...
Showing the existence of regular languages not definable in FOMOD[<, +, *] is equivalent to the separation of the circuit complexity classes ACC0 and NC1 . ...
In this paper, we identify a sufficient condition for functional vocabularies over first order logic and first order logic extended with modulo quantifiers, to satisfy the Crane Beach property. ...

The present paper considers logics formed by extending first- order logic with groupoidal quantifiers. ...
The paper establishes that extending first-order logic with arithmetic by all groupoidal quantifiers yields a logic that exactly characterizes LOGCFL, which is known to be equivalent to the complexity ...

One-Variable Logic Meets Presburger Arithmetic
[article]
2019
arXiv
pre-print
We consider the one-variable fragment of first-order logic extended with Presburger constraints. ...
The logic is designed in such a way that it subsumes the previously-known fragments extended with counting, modulo counting or cardinality comparison and combines their expressive powers. ...
The author would also like to thank the two anonymous reviewers as well as Witold Charatonik, Emanuel Kieroński and Antti Kuusisto for their careful proofreading and for pointing out numerous grammatical ...

Bounded arithmetic We turn now to some first order theories that are important in this field. Let us first recall the classical theory Peano arithmetic used to formalize number theory. ...

The latter would have two hundred first-order quantifiers in its logical form. ...
These quantifiers are part of the first-order predicate calculus, and this calculus, in turn, is part of logic, and thus unproblematic. ...
In these cases, it is plausible that there is a plural quantifier involved, as in the sentence 'There are numbers between 100 and 200.' 28 Carnap's discussion can be found in his famous 1956 essay. ...
