Abstract:
In this work, we introduce general specifications for the concepts of finitary and infinitary first-order combinatorics as well as give preliminary definitions of semantic layers of model-theoretic properties connected with these combinatorics. We use only the simplest notions of first-order logic and algorithm theory together with elementary properties of signature reduction procedures and constructions of finitely axiomatizable theories known in common practice. The work represents an ideological basis and starting point for investigations on expressive power of first-order predicate logic.
