Abstract
The purpose of this section is to fix notations and terminology for the basic notions related to first-order logic. We assume that the reader has already some familiarity with these concepts, as it is obtained by an introductory course in mathematical logic. For more detailed information we refer to textbooks such as [24, 27]. Parts of our exposition in part B follow [7].
