- By the way, thanks to all for the suggestions. I was
- thinking erroneously that standard Presburger arithmetic had
- negative numbers, which it doesn't. That makes things easier,
- and in the restricted context in which I want to use it, I
- think it turns out that I can just use the Peano axioms plus
- those for addition and claim to be doing Presburger arithmetic.
