Abstract

In this paper, we show how to construct for a given consistent theory UU a Σ10\Sigma^0_1-predicate that both satisfies the L\"ob Conditions and the Kreisel Condition ---even if UU is unsound. We do this in such a way that UU itself can verify satisfaction of an internal version of the Kreisel Condition.
