Abstract

In reasoning tasks involving logical formulas, high expressiveness is desirable, although it often leads to high computational complexity. We study a simple measure of expressiveness: the number of formulas expressible by a language, up to semantic equivalence. In the context of constraints, we prove a dichotomy theorem on constraint languages regarding this measure.
