The Arithmetic is interpreted in all the groups of Richard Thompson and Graham Higman, as well as in other groups of piecewise affine permutations of an interval which generalize the groups of Thompson and Higman. In particular, the…

We prove that the elementary theory of Thompson's group $F$ is hereditarily undecidable.

Richard Thompson's group F is the group of piecewise linear homeomorphisms of the unit interval with a finite number of break points, all at dyadic rational numbers (their denominators are powers of 2) and with slopes which are powers of 2.…

By affine arithmetic is meant the set of affine consequences of Peano arithmetic. This is a continuous theory which is studied in the framework of affine logic, a sublogic of continuous logic. Affine arithmetic is undecidable. Also, its…

We prove new results about the remarkable infinite simple groups introduced by Richard Thompson in the 1960s. We define the groups as partial transformation groups and we give a faithful representation in the Cuntz C*-algebra. For the…

In this paper we will give a scheme-theoretic discussion on the unramified extensions of an arithmetic function field in several variables. The notion of unramified discussed here is parallel to that in algebraic number theory and for the…

We prove that arithmetic is interpretable in any indecomposable polynomial ring (in any set of variables), and in addition we provide an alternative uniform proof of undecidability for all members in this class of rings.

In this paper we will give a computation of the \'{e}tale fundamental group of an integral arithmetic scheme. For such a scheme, we will prove that the \'{e}tale fundamental group is naturally isomorphic to the Galois group of the maximal…

Kristiansen and Murwanashyaka recently proved that Robinson arithmetic Q is interpretable in an elementary theory of full binary trees, T. We prove that, conversely, T is interpretable in Q by producing a formal interpretation of T in an…

We introduce the Pythagorean dimension: a natural number (or infinity) for all representations of the Cuntz algebra and certain unitary representations of the Richard Thompson groups called Pythagorean. For each natural number d we…

An elementary rheory of concatenation is introduced and used to establish mutual interpretability of Robinson arithmetic, Minimal Predicative Set Theory, the quantifier-free part of Kirby's finitary set theory, and Adjunctive Set Theory,…

We consider the foundational relation between arithmetic and set theory. Our goal is to criticize the construction of standard arithmetic models as providing grounds for arithmetic truth (even in a relative sense). Our method is to…

Group theory is a particularly fertile field for the design of practical algorithms. Algorithms have been developed across the various branches of the subject and they find wide application. Because of its relative maturity, computational…

This work introduces a novel framework of uniform realizability that unifies and generalizes various realizability interpretations of logic, particularly focussing on the treatment of atomic formulas and quantifiers. Traditional…

We describe a generalization of the concept of a pc presentation that applies to groups with a nontrivial solvable radical. Such a representation can be much more efficient in terms of memory use and even of arithmetic, than permuattion and…

In this paper, we provide a comprehensive classification of Stein's groups, which generalize the well-known Higman-Thompson groups. Stein's groups are defined as groups of piecewise linear bijections of an interval with finitely many…

We consider the permutation group algebra defined by Cameron and show that if the permutation group has no finite orbits, then no homogeneous element of degree one is a zero-divisor of the algebra. We proceed to make a conjecture which…

Let $I=[0,1)$ and $\mathcal{PC}(I)$ [resp. $\mathcal{PC}^+(I)$] be the quotient group of the group of all piecewise continuous [resp. piecewise continuous and orientation preserving] bijections of $I$ by its normal subgroup consisting in…

Arithmetic groups are groups of matrices with integral entries. We shall first discuss their origin in number theory (Gauss, Minkowski) and their role in the "reduction theory of quadratic forms". Then we shall describe these groups by…

There are two possible computational interpretations of second-order arithmetic: Girard's system F or Spector's bar recursion and its variants. While the logic is the same, the programs obtained from these two interpretations have a…
