The field of the Reals and the Random Graph are not Finite-Word Ordinal-Automatic

Recently, Schlicht and Stephan lifted the notion of automatic-structures to the notion of (finite-word) ordinal-automatic structures. These are structures whose domain and relations can be represented by automata reading finite words whose shape is some fixed ordinal $\alpha$. We lift Delhomm'e’s relative-growth-technique from the automatic and tree-automatic setting to the ordinal-automatic setting. This result implies that the random graph is not ordinal-automatic and infinite integral domains are not ordinal-automatic with respect to ordinals below ${\omega }_1+{\omega }^{\omega }$ where ${\omega }_1$ is the first uncountable ordinal.
