Ramsey Theorem [6] for pairs is intuitionistically but not classically provable: it is equivalent to a subclassical principle [2]. In this note we show that Ramsey may be restated in an intuitionistically provable form, which is informative…

We generalize the notion of saturated order to infinite partial orders and give both a set-theoretic and an algebraic characterization of such orders. We then study the proof theoretic strength of the equivalence of these characterizations…

We investigate the set of Pi-1-2 sentences which are Pi-1-1 conservative over the theories of reverse mathematics RCA0+ISigma_n and ACA0. We exhibit new elements of these sets and conclude that the sets are Pi_2 complete. Along the way, we…

The minimum classical extension S$^{+g}$ of a classically sound theory S based on intuitionistic logic, defined by adding to S the Gentzen negative interpretations of its mathematical axioms, contains a faithful translation S$^g$ of the…

Root Cause Analysis for Anomalies is challenging because of the trade-off between the accuracy and its explanatory friendliness, required for industrial applications. In this paper we propose a framework for simple and friendly RCA within…

The compactness lemma in programming language theory states that any recursive function can be simulated by a finite unrolling of the function. One important use case it has is in the logical relations proof technique for proving properties…

Intuitionistic grammar logics fuse constructive and multi-modal reasoning while permitting the use of converse modalities, serving as a generalization of standard intuitionistic modal logics. In this paper, we provide definitions of these…

A classical theorem of Lusin states that all analytic sets are Lebesgue-measurable. In this article we established the reverse mathematical strength of Lusin's theorem, which depends on how precisely it is formalized. By doing so, we answer…

This paper presents a theory of systemic undecidability, reframing incomputability as a structural property of systems rather than a localized feature of specific functions or problems. We define a notion of causal embedding and prove a…

Canonical inference rules and canonical systems are defined in the framework of non-strict single-conclusion sequent systems, in which the succeedents of sequents can be empty. Important properties of this framework are investigated, and a…

Predicate intuitionistic logic is a well established fragment of dependent types. According to the Curry-Howard isomorphism proof construction in the logic corresponds well to synthesis of a program the type of which is a given formula. We…

The uniform Kruskal theorem extends the original result for trees to general recursive data types. As shown by A. Freund, M. Rathjen and A. Weiermann, it is equivalent to $\Pi^1_1$-comprehension, over $\mathsf{RCA_0}$ with the chain…

We revisit the notion of intuitionistic equivalence and formal proof representations by adopting the view of formulas as exponential polynomials. After observing that most of the invertible proof rules of intuitionistic (minimal)…

One advantage of paraconsistent logic is that it can deal with inconsistencies without making the system trivial. However, unlike classical propositional calculus, its deductive system is limited, and the meaning of paraconsistent negation…
