In this work, we show that both logic programming and abstract argumentation frameworks can be interpreted in terms of Nelson's constructive logic N4. We do so by formalizing, in this logic, two principles that we call non-contradictory…
The existence of non-trivial IR and UV fixed points in gauge theories as a function of the number of fermion flavors and bare coupling is discussed in the light of recent work. It is pointed out that in fact only a small subset of potential…
For an interval finite quiver $Q$, we introduce a class of flat representations. We classify the indecomposable projective objects in the category $\mathrm{rep}(Q)$ of pointwise finite dimensional representations. We show that an object in…
For certain uncountable cardinals $\kappa$ we produce a group of cardinality $\kappa$ which is freely indecomposable, strongly $\kappa$-free, and whose abelianization is free abelian of rank $\kappa$. The construction takes place in…
In this paper, without the axiom of choice, we show that if a certain downward L\"owenheim-Skolem property holds then all grounds are uniformly definable. We also prove that the axiom of choice is forceable if and only if the universe is a…
It is shown the construction of a module structure [2] with universe over a set of a particular kind of mathematical proofs, the base ring of this module will be built on a maximal consistent extension of a set of propositions, this…
Our main result is the equivalence of two notions of reducibility between structures. One is a syntactical notion which is an effective version of interpretability as in model theory, and the other one is a computational notion which is a…
We construct a realizability model of linear dependent type theory from a linear combinatory algebra. Our model motivates a number of additions to the type theory. In particular, we add a universe with two decoding operations: one takes…
For modules over a finite-dimensional algebra, there is a canonical one-to-one correspondence between the projective indecomposable modules and the simple modules. In this purely expository note, we take a straight-line path from the…
The Weak Gravity Conjecture imposes stringent constraints on effective field theories to allow for an ultraviolet completion within quantum gravity. While substantial evidence supports the conjecture across broad classes of string…
We give an internal description of constructible objects in an $\infty$-topos. More precisely, $P$-consctructible objects are locally constant objects internal to Fun($P$,An), for any noetherian poset $P$.
We introduce infinite time computable model theory, the computable model theory arising with infinite time Turing machines, which provide infinitary notions of computability for structures built on the reals R. Much of the finite time…
We investigate the behavior of infinite-time admissibility under compact perturbations. We show, by means of two completely different examples, that infinite-time admissibility is not preserved under compact perturbations $Q$ of the…
The existence of dark matter is now well established by several indirect experiments. Several candidates for dark matter has also been proposed. However, the dark matter can just be like our ordinary matter in a parallel Universe with both…
I survey physics theories involving parallel universes, arguing that they form a natural four-level hierarchy of multiverses allowing progressively greater diversity. Level I: A generic prediction of inflation is an infinite ergodic…
We give a type system in which the universe of types is closed by reflection into it of the logical relation defined externally by induction on the structure of types. This contribution is placed in the context of the search for a natural,…
Interpretability is the study of explaining models in understandable terms to humans. At present, interpretability is divided into two paradigms: the intrinsic paradigm, which believes that only models designed to be explained can be…
Many cosmological models assume or imply that the total size of the universe is very large, perhaps even infinite. Here we argue instead that the universe might be comparatively small, in fact not much larger than the currently observed…
One of the algebraic structures that has emerged recently in the study of the operator product expansions of chiral fields in conformal field theory is that of a Lie conformal algebra [K]. A Lie pseudoalgebra is a generalization of the…
In this paper we continue with the algebraic study of Krivine's realizability, refining some of the authors' previous constructions by introducing two categories, with objects the abstract Krivine structures and the implicative algebras…
