Abstract.

In the present paper, we apply the methodology in Balbiani and Tinchev(2016) to show that for the modal language with universal modality image-20221014094749-1  , tense language image-20221014094825-2, hybrid languages image-20221014094916-3, image-20221014094947-4(@), Chagrova’s theorem holds that the modal/tense/hybrid definability of first­order sentences with respect to certain classes of frames is undecidable, by using similar techniques as stable classes of Kripke frames.
