Closed access Metadata (CSL-JSON)
DOI 10.1134/s1995080222150215
Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The concept of a pseudofinite formula is introduced. Links of pseudofinite formulae and their spectra are studied. Boolean algebras, lattices and semilattices related to pseudofinite formulae are found. Relations between pseudofinite formulae and positive, negative, $$\forall$$ -formulae, $$\exists$$ -formulae, $$\exists\forall$$ -formulae, $$\forall\exists$$ -formulae are considered. The family of all consistent formulae in a given language is considered and the existence of non-pseudofinite consistent formulae in that language is characterized.
