Pixelating Relations and Functions Without Adding Substructures
摘要
We investigate models of relations over a bounded continuous segment of real numbers, along with the natural linear order over the reals being provided as a “hard-coded” relation. This paper presents a generalization of a lemma from Ben-Eliezer et al. (Ordered graph limits and their applications. In: Lee, J.R.

Schloss Dagstuhl-Leibniz-Zentrum für Informatik (2021)), showing that with a small amount of modification (measured in terms of the Lebesgue measure) we can replace such a model with a “pixelated” one that has a finite description, in a way that preserves all universally quantified statements over the relations, or in other words, without adding any new substructures.
