The Natural Order-Generic Collapse for ω

A structure can be viewed as a database whose database schema may contain not only relation symbols but also constant symbols. This allows us to restrict ourselves to boolean queries (which are formulated ...

This interpretation of negation may be confusing at first. The intuitive idea is that ¬P = (P ⇒⊥) is true if and only if P is not true becau ...
