Epsilon Substitution for $ID_1$ via Cut-Elimination

Logic 2015-09-02 v1

Abstract

The ϵ\epsilon-substitution method is a technique for giving consistency proofs for theories of arithmetic. We use this technique to give a proof of the consistency of the impredicative theory ID1ID_1 using a variant of the cut-elimination formalism introduced by Mints.
