Abstract: Motivated by problems that arise in computing degrees of belief, we consider the problem
of computing asymptotic conditional probabilities for first-order sentences. Given first-order
sentences ' and `, we consider the structures with domain f1; : : : ; Ng that satisfy `, and
compute the fraction of them in which ' is true. We then consider what happens to this
fraction as N gets large. This extends the work on 0-1 laws that considers the limiting
probability of first-order sentences, by... (Update)

...be impractical for computational reasons, we can still use it as guidance in a search for approximations and heuristics. As we show in [GHK93b] computing degrees of belief according to random worlds is, indeed, intractable in general. This is not surprising: our language...
.... Computing of conditional probabilities Pr( j ) is nothing new, either, and has been considered by several authors in depth, including [23, 15, 14], mostly for rst order logic or unordered structures. Finally, Markov chains have already been used for evaluation of probabilities...
