    • containsQuantifier

      public boolean containsQuantifier()
      Description copied from interface: QuantifiedFormula
      Checks whether this formula contains any quantification.
      Returns:
      "true" if this formula contains a quantification.

    • isClosed

      public boolean isClosed()
      Description copied from interface: QuantifiedFormula
      Checks whether this formula is closed, i.e. whether every variables occurring in the formula is bound by a quantifier.
      Returns:
      "true" if this formula is closed, "false" otherwise.

    • substitute

      public Negation substitute(Term<?> v, Term<?> t) throws IllegalArgumentException
      Description copied from class: RelationalFormula
      Substitutes all occurrences of term "v" in this formula by term "t" and returns the new formula. NOTE: if "v" is a variable and bound to a quantifier then "v" is not substituted in that quantifiers inner formula.
      Specified by:
      substitute in interface ComplexLogicalFormula
      Specified by:
      substitute in class FolFormula
      Parameters:
      v - the term to be substituted.
      t - the term to substitute.
      Returns:
      a formula where every occurrence of "v" is replaced by "t".
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if "v" and "t" are of different sorts (NOTE: this exception is only thrown when "v" actually appears in this formula).

    • isClosed

      public boolean isClosed(Set<Variable> boundVariables)
      Description copied from interface: QuantifiedFormula
      Checks whether this formula is closed, i.e. whether every variables occurring in the formula is bound by a quantifier. Every variable in "boundVariables" is already assumed to be bound.
      Parameters:
      boundVariables - the variables assumed to be bound.
      Returns:
      "true" if this formula is closed wrt. "boundVariables", "false" otherwise.

    • getUnboundVariables

      public Set<Variable> getUnboundVariables()
      Returns:
      a set of of unbound variables

    • isWellBound

      public boolean isWellBound()
      Description copied from interface: QuantifiedFormula
      Checks whether this formula is well-bound, i.e. whether no variable bound by a quantifier is again bound by another quantifier within the first quantifier's range.
      Returns:
      "true" if this formula is well-bound, "false" otherwise.

    • isWellBound

      public boolean isWellBound(Set<Variable> boundVariables)
      Description copied from interface: QuantifiedFormula
      Checks whether this formula is well-bound, i.e. whether no variable bound by a quantifier is again bound by another quantifier within the first quantifier range. Every variable in "boundVariables" is assumed to be bound already.
      Parameters:
      boundVariables - the variables assumed to be bound.
      Returns:
      "true" if this formula is well-bound, "false" otherwise.

    • isLiteral

      public boolean isLiteral()
      Returns:
      true if the formula represents a literal in the language or false otherwise

    • collapseAssociativeFormulas

      public FolFormula collapseAssociativeFormulas()
      Description copied from class: FolFormula
      This method collapses all associative operations appearing in this term, e.g. every a||(b||c) becomes a||b||c.
      Specified by:
      collapseAssociativeFormulas in class FolFormula
