Abstract

In this paper we define a model of randomly generated databases and show how one can compute the threshold functions for queries expressible in monotone non-recursive datalog≠. We also show that monotone non-recursive datalog≠ cannot express any property with a sharp threshold. Finally, we show that non-recursive datalog≠ has a 0–1 law for a large class of probability functions, defined in the paper.
