A note on the expressive power of linear orders

Thomas Schwentick ; Nicole Schweikardt.

This article shows that there exist two particular linear orders such that first-order logic with these two linear orders has the same expressive power as first-order logic with the Bit-predicate FO(Bit). As a corollary we obtain that there also exists a built-in permutation such that first-order&nbsp;[&hellip;]

Two-Variable Logic with Two Order Relations

Thomas Schwentick ; Thomas Zeume.

It is shown that the finite satisfiability problem for two-variable logic over structures with one total preorder relation, its induced successor relation, one linear order relation and some further unary relations is EXPSPACE-complete. Actually, EXPSPACE-completeness already holds for structures&nbsp;[&hellip;]
