Blatter-Specker Theorem
Blatter-Specker Theorem for ternary relations ★★
Author(s): Makowsky
Let be a class of finite relational structures. We denote by
the number of structures in
over the labeled set
. For any class
definable in monadic second-order logic with unary and binary relation symbols, Specker and Blatter showed that, for every
, the function
is ultimately periodic modulo
.
Question Does the Blatter-Specker Theorem hold for ternary relations.
