Zero one laws for graphs with edge probabilities decaying with distance



Author: Saharon Shelah

ABSTRACT

Let G(n) be the random graph on [n]={1,...,n} with the possible edge {i,j} having probability being p(|i-j|)=1/(|i-j|^a), 0 is less than a is less than 1 irrational. We prove that the zero one law (for first order logic) holds.
