    Natural Language Statement

    Theorem

    The classes PTIME and coPTIME are equal: a problem is SO-Horn definable if and only if its complement is. The Horn fragment has no negation of its own; the closure comes from FO(LFP), where complementing is negating the output sentence, through the equivalence of the two logics.
