Abstract
In this paper, we investigate arithmetical completeness with respect to finite Kripke models of quantified modal logic. We adapt the finite-model embedding techniques of Artemov and Japaridze to two settings involving finite Kripke models. First, for conversely well-founded finite Kripke models of quantified modal logic, we construct a Fefermanian provability predicate together with an arithmetical interpretation that embeds the model into arithmetic. Second, for finite constant domain Kripke models of quantified modal logic, we construct a provability predicate satisfying and an arithmetical interpretation yielding such an embedding.
