Aggregate convergence laws for uniform distributions on restricted graph classes

Establish whether the first-order convergence results known for uniform distributions over restricted sparse graph classes extend to real-valued aggregate logics with averaging operators.

Background

The paper’s results concern Erdős–Rényi distributions, while related first-order convergence laws are known for uniform distributions over several restricted graph classes, including sparse graph classes. The authors do not analyze whether those distribution-specific convergence phenomena persist when first-order logic is extended with aggregation, and explicitly leave this possibility unresolved.

References

Our work leaves open the possibility that these extend to aggregate logics, but we do not investigate this here.
