A note on the monotonicity of reducible quantifiers
Journal of Logic, Language and Information 19 (1):123-128 (2010)
| Abstract |
We provide necessary and sufficient conditions determining how monotonicity of some classes of reducible quantifiers depends on the monotonicity of simpler quantifiers of iterations to which they are equivalent.
