Abstract

We show that for each property of graphs G in NP there is a sequence Ø1, Ø2, . . . of formulas of the full hybrid logic which are satisfied exactly by the frames in G. Moreover, the size of Øn is bounded by a polynomial. We also show that the same holds for each graph property in the polynomial hierarchy.
