Abstract
The first-order logical theory of dense linear order has long been known to admit quantifier elimination. This paper develops an explicit algorithm that yields an equivalent quantifier free form of its input formula. This algorithm performs existential quantifier elimination via constraint propagation. The result is computed incrementally using functional programming techniques. This approach may be of interest in implementing query languages for constraint databases.
