| - | In [[Quantifier elimination definition]] we noted that if the validity of first-order formulas in some theory is decidable, then we can extend the language of formulas so that we have quantifier elimination. Previously we also observed that quantifier elimination implies the existence of interpolants (see the definition of [[interpolation for propositional logic]] as well as the [[Calculus of Computation Textbook]]). We next apply these observations to weak monadic second-order logic over strings described in [[Lecture23]]. | + | Describe the set of all binary relations $r^s_F$ definable through singleton sets |
