Abstract: We study the structure of first-order and secondorder
queries over constraint databases. Constraint
databases are formally modeled as finite
relational structures embedded in some fixed infinite
structure. We concentrate on problems of
elimination of constraints, reducing quantification
range to the active domain of the database and
obtaining new complexity bounds. We show that
for a large class of signatures, including real arithmetic
constraints, unbounded quantification can
be eliminated.... (Update)
