Fluted logic (FL) is a fragment of first-order logic in which variables play no essential role. The author shows that FL has the exponential-model property and that its satisfiability problem is NEXPTIME-complete. In addition, the author shows that FL has the interpolation property and that a consistent fluted sententence \(\phi\) is universal if and only if the models of \(\phi\) are closed under taking submodels.
