One of the previous articles in the column was devoted to the zero-one laws for a number of logics playing prominent role in finite model theory: first-order logic FO, the extension FO+LFP of first-order logic with the least fixed-point operator, and the infinitary logic where every formula uses finitely many variables [<a href=\"https:\/\/new-cm-edgedigital.pages.dev\/en-us\/research\/publication\/95-zero-one-laws\/\">Zero-One Laws<\/a>]. Recently Shelah proved a new, powerful, and surprising zero-one law. His proof uses so-called strong extension axioms. Here we formulate Shelah&#8217;s zero-one law and prove a few facts about these axioms. In the process we give a simple proof for a &#8220;large deviation&#8221; inequality a la Chernoff.<\/p>\n<p>This publication was also reprinted in 2004 World Scientific book, <i>Current Trends in Theoretical Computer Science<\/i>,\u00a0pages 99-118.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This article is a part of the continuing column on Logic in Computer Science.
