We propose a modular method for proving termination of general logic programs (i.e., logic programs with negation). It is based on the notion of acceptable programs, but it allows us to prove termination in a truly modular way. We consider…
We present an extension to the $\mathtt{mathlib}$ library of the Lean theorem prover formalizing the foundations of computability theory. We use primitive recursive functions and partial recursive functions as the main objects of study, and…
We offer a mathematical proof of consistency for Peano Arithmetic PA formalizable in PA. This result is compatible with Goedel's Second Incompleteness Theorem since our consistency proof does not rely on the representation of consistency as…
It has been shown that a functional interpretation of proofs in mathematical analysis can be given by the product of selection functions, a mode of recursion that has an intuitive reading in terms of the computation of optimal strategies in…
In this paper we formulate and prove a general theorem of stability of exactness properties under the pro-completion, which unifies several such theorems in the literature and gives many more. The theorem depends on a formal approach to…
We give a new proof of the fundamental theorem of algebra. It is entirely elementary, focused on using long division to its fullest extent. Further, the method quickly recovers a more general version of the theorem recently obtained by…
We prove two theorems on cohomologically complete complexes. These theorems are inspired by, and yield an alternative proof of, a recent theorem of P. Schenzel on complete modules.
Here we present a Bayesian formalism for the goodness-of-fit that is the evidence for a fixed functional form over the evidence for all functions that are a general perturbation about this form. This is done under the assumption that the…
Many proofs of the fundamental theorem of algebra rely on the fact that the minimum of the modulus of a complex polynomial over the complex plane is attained at some complex number. The proof then follows by arguing the minimum value is…
Most of the engineering and physical systems are generally characterized by differential and difference equations based on their continuous-time and discrete-time dynamics, respectively. Moreover, these dynamical models are analyzed using…
We discuss and illustrate the behaviour of the continued fraction expansion of a formal power series under specialisation of parameters or their reduction modulo $p$ and sketch some applications of the reduction theorem here proved.
We introduce a direct image formalism for constructible motivic functions. One deduces a very general version of motivic integration for which a change of variables theorem is proved. These constructions are generalized to the relative…
We show that including degrees of a particular kind of provability in the search target for any theorem-prover in sufficiently powerful formal systems over finite-sized statements preserves well-definition and a sufficient consistency while…
A detailed and rigorous analysis of G\"odel's proof of his first incompleteness theorem is presented. The purpose of this analysis is two-fold. The first is to reveal what G\"odel actually proved to provide a clear and solid foundation upon…
This is the first paper in a series that studies smooth relative Lie algebra homologies and cohomologies based on the theory of formal manifolds and formal Lie groups. In this paper, we lay the foundations for this study by introducing the…
We prove a formality theorem for algebraic objects internal to smooth complex varieties that are not compact but whose mixed Hodge structure has a certain purity property.
In this work, we present a logical formalism for reasoning about quantum systems in finite dimension. Contrary to the usual approach in quantum logic, our formalism is based classical first-order logic, which allows us to use the tools of…
We present a simple short proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, without complex analysis and with a minimal use of topology. It can be taught in a first year calculus class.
We discuss a formal system of mathematics. We use it to construct the natural numbers.
We extend the formality theorem of M. Kontsevich from deformations of the structure sheaf on a manifold to deformations of gerbes.
