We provided in \cite{BaldwinBrincusI} extensions of first order logic by modified inferential definitions of the classical $\omega$-rule in $1$ or $2$ sorts. These logics are categorical in the inferential sense. Arithmetic has a unique…
We generalise Delhomm\'e's result that each tree-automatic ordinal is strictly below \omega^\omega^\omega{} by showing that any tree-automatic linear ordering has FC-rank strictly below \omega^\omega. We further investigate a restricted…
We deal with the monadic (second-order) theory of order. We prove all known results in a unified way, show a general way of reduction, prove more results and show the limitation on extending them. We prove (CH) that the monadic theory of…
In this note we show through infinitary derivations that each provably well-founded strict partial order in ${\rm ACA}_{0}$ admits an embedding to an ordinal$<\varepsilon_{0}$.
We define a game semantics for second order classical arithmetic PA2 (with quantifiers over predicates on integers and full comprehension axiom). Our semantics is effective: moves are described by a finite amount of information and whenever…
Following the paper~[3] by V\"{a}\"{a}n\"{a}nen and the author, we continue to investigate on the difference between Boolean-valued second-order logic and full second-order logic. We show that the compactness number of Boolean-valued…
We define a new inner model C2(omega) based on the fragment of second order logic in which second order variables range over countable subsets of the domain. We compare C2(omega) to the previously studied inner model C(aa). We argue that…
We study the existence of positional strategies for the protagonist in infinite duration games over arbitrary game graphs. We prove that prefix-independent objectives in $\Sigma_0^2$ which are positional and admit a (strongly) neutral…
First order formulas in a relational signature can be considered as operations on the relations of an underlying set, giving rise to multisorted algebras we call first order algebras. We present universal axioms so that an algebra satisfies…
We describe a proof-theoretic bound on $Sigma_{2}$-definable countable ordinals in Kripke-Platek set theory with $Pi_{1}$-Collection and the existence of $omega_{1}$.
This paper deals more generally with @-numbers defined as follows: Call `\textit{alpha number}' of order $(\underline{\alpha},\bar{\alpha})\in\mathbb{H}^2$, (denote its family by @$_{(\underline{\alpha},\bar{\alpha})\in\mathbb{H}^2;…
Let $R$ be a unital $*$-ring. For any $a,w,b\in R$, we apply the defined $w$-core inverse to define a new class of partial orders in $R$, called the $w$-core partial order. Suppose $a,b\in R$ are $w$-core invertible. We say that $a$ is…
This paper is devoted to the analysis of a second order method for recovering the \emph{a priori} unknown shape of an inclusion $\omega$ inside a body $\Omega$ from boundary measurement. This inverse problem - known as electrical impedance…
We prove that every many-sorted $\omega$-categorical theory is completely interpretable in a one-sorted $\omega$-categorical theory. As an application, we give a short proof of the existence of non $G$--compact $\omega$-categorical…
We study the reverse mathematics of the theory of countable second-countable topological spaces, with a focus on compactness. We show that the general theory of such spaces works as expected in the subsystem $\mathsf{ACA}_0$ of second-order…
We consider bivariate polynomials orthogonal on the bicircle with respect to a positive linear functional. The lexicographical and reverse lexicographical orderings are used to order the monomials. Recurrence formulas are derived between…
Caucal hierarchy is a well-known class of graphs with decidable monadic theories. It were proved by L. Braud and A. Carayol that well-orderings in the hierarchy are the well-orderings with order types less than $\varepsilon_0$. Naturally,…
Ito's Lemma implies that if $W$ is a Wiener process and $f$ is a twice continuously differentiable function, then the process $f(W)$ is the sum of a time integral and an Ito integral. The Ito integrand is not necessarily locally square…
We are able to derive the equations of motion for forced mechanical systems in a purely variational setting, both in the context of Lagrangian or Hamiltonian mechanics, by duplicating the variables of the system as introduced by Galley…
We show that the word problem for an amalgam $[S_1,S_2;U,\omega_1,\omega_2]$ of inverse semigroups may be undecidable even if we assume $S_1$ and $S_2$ (and therefore $U$) to have finite $\mathcal{R}$-classes and $\omega_1,\omega_2$ to be…
