Abstract:
Let $\mathfrak{C}$ denote the structure of the natural numbers with the
coprimeness relation. We prove that for each non-zero natural number $n$,
if a $\Pi^1_n$-set of natural numbers is closed under automorphisms
of $\mathfrak{C}$, then it is definable in $\mathfrak{C}$ by a monadic
$\Pi^1_n$-formula of the signature of $\mathfrak{C}$ having exactly $n$ set
quantifiers.
On the other hand, we observe that even a much weaker version
of this property fails for certain expansions of $\mathfrak{C}$.
