... Proof. We prove this statement by induction. The number is 2, so the statement is true for n = 2. If we assume that the statement is true for all n ≤ k, i.e. that all integers 2 ≤ n ≤ k have a prime factor, we will now prove the same for k + 1. If k + 1 is prime, then it itself provides a factorizat ...

Furthermore s and s[x/τ ] agree on all free variables in (∀y)ψ. By Theorem ??, we have A, s |= (∀y)ψ[x/τ ] iff A, s |= (∀y)ψ iff A, ...
