摘要:One-dimensional fragment of first-order logic is obtained by restricting quantification to blocks of existential quantifiers that leave at most one variable free. We investigate one-dimensional fragment over words and over omega-words. We show that it is expressively equivalent to the two-variable fragment of first-order logic. We also show that its satisfiability problem is NExpTime-complete. Further, we show undecidability of some extensions, whose two-variable counterparts remain decidable.
