A Note on Bootstrapping Intuitionistic Bounded Arithmetic

They also gave an improved treatment of polynomial time functionals, introduced new powerful theories using lambda calculus, strengthened the feasibility results for IS21 , and reproved the ‘main theorem’ for S21 as a corollary of their results for IS21 .

The Axiom of Choice

Interestingly, there are several statements that turn out to be logically equivalent to the axiom of choice, although they do not appear to be the same at all. I think this is partly why the axiom of choice shows up so often. Le ...

Semantics of intuitionistic propositional logic
... Note that if S has a smallest element p0 then validity under V is equivalent to p0 A, due to this property. Remark 3.2 An intuitive reading of the above is to think of S as the set of possible worlds and the relation p A as A is true in world p. The judgement p ≤ q indicates that q is accessible ...

Remarks on Second-Order Consequence

A large amount of set-theoretical propositions which are known to be independent of the usual set theory ZFC (Zermelo-Fraenkel with the axiom of choice) are precisely about the contents of the power set operation. The most discussed among these is Cantor's Continuum Hypothesis (CH) according to whic ...

Definability in Boolean bunched logic
... A property P of BBI-models is said to be definable if there exists a formula A such that for all BBI-models M , A is valid in M ⇐⇒ M ∈ P. We’ll consider properties that feature in various models of separation logic. To show a property is definable, just exhibit the defining ...

Chapter 5 Predicate Logic
... We can use this latter interpretation of H to treat another predicate logic formula: (∀x)H(x, x). Here there is still only one quantifier and no connectives, but there is more than one quantified variable. The interpretation is that both arguments must be the same. This expression is true if H can p ...

Axiomatic Systems

In order to prove that a system is consistent, all we need to do is come up with a model: a definition of the undefined terms where the axioms are all true. In order to prove tha ...
