Presburger arithmetic
Presburger arithmetic is a weakened form of arithmetic which includes the structure $\mathbb{N}$ , the constant $0$ , the unary function $S$ , the binary function $+$ , and the binary relation $<$ . Essentially, it is Peano arithmetic without multiplication.
The axioms are:
- $0\not= Sx$
- $Sx=Sy\rightarrow x=y$
- $x+0=x$
- $x+Sy=S(x+y)$
- For each first order formula $P(x)$ , $P(0)\wedge\forall x[P(x)\rightarrow P(x+1)]\rightarrow\forall x P(x)$
Presburger arithmetic is decidable, but is consequently very limited in what it can express.
