On Homogeneous Models of Fluted Languages

Authors: Daumantas Kojelis

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 326, 33rd EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2025)


Abstract
We study the fluted fragment of first-order logic which is often viewed as a multi-variable non-guarded extension to various systems of description logics lacking role-inverses. In this paper we show that satisfiable fluted sentences (even under reasonable extensions) admit special kinds of "nice" models which we call globally/locally homogeneous. Homogeneous models allow us to simplify methods for analysing fluted logics with counting quantifiers and establish a novel result for the decidability of the (finite) satisfiability problem for the fluted fragment with periodic counting. More specifically, we will show that the (finite) satisfiability problem for the language is Tower-complete. If only two variable are used, computational complexity drops to NExpTime-completeness. We supplement our findings by showing that generalisations of fluted logics, such as the adjacent fragment, have finite and general satisfiability problems which are, respectively, Σ⁰₁- and Π⁰₁-complete. Additionally, satisfiability becomes Σ¹₁-complete if periodic counting quantifiers are permitted.

On the Limits of Decision: the Adjacent Fragment of First-Order Logic

Authors: Bartosz Bednarczyk, Daumantas Kojelis, and Ian Pratt-Hartmann

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 261, 50th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2023)


Abstract
We define the adjacent fragment AF of first-order logic, obtained by restricting the sequences of variables occurring as arguments in atomic formulas. The adjacent fragment generalizes (after a routine renaming) two-variable logic as well as the fluted fragment. We show that the adjacent fragment has the finite model property, and that its satisfiability problem is no harder than for the fluted fragment (and hence is Tower-complete). We further show that any relaxation of the adjacency condition on the allowed order of variables in argument sequences yields a logic whose satisfiability and finite satisfiability problems are undecidable. Finally, we study the effect of the adjacency requirement on the well-known guarded fragment (GF) of first-order logic. We show that the satisfiability problem for the guarded adjacent fragment (GA) remains 2ExpTime-hard, thus strengthening the known lower bound for GF.
