Title
Two-variable Logic with Counting and a Linear Order.
Abstract
We study the finite satisfiability problem for the two-variable fragment offirst-order logic extended with counting quantifiers (C2) and interpreted overlinearly ordered structures. We show that the problem is undecidable in thecase of two linear orders (in the presence of two other binary symbols). In thecase of one linear order it is NEXPTIME-complete, even in the presence of thesuccessor relation. Surprisingly, the complexity of the problem explodes whenwe add one binary symbol more: C2 with one linear order and in the presence ofother binary predicate symbols is equivalent, under elementary reductions, tothe emptiness problem for multicounter automata.
