Abstract: appeared in STACS `98) Joel H. Spencer 1 and Katherine St. John 2 1 Courant Institute, New York University, New York, NY 10012 2 Department of Mathematics, Santa Clara University, Santa Clara, CA 95053-0290 1 Abstract We give a complete characterization for the limit probabilities of first order sentences over sparse random bit strings at the threshold of adjacency. For strings of length n, we let the probability that a bit is "on" be c p n , for a real positive number c. For every... (Update)
