Throughout the course of mathematical history, generalizations of previously understood concepts and structures have led to the fruitful development of the hierarchy of number systems, non-euclidean geometry, and many other epochal phases…
This paper outlines new paradigms for real analysis and computability theory in the recently proposed non-Aristotelian finitary logic (NAFL). Constructive real analysis in NAFL (NRA) is accomplished by a translation of diagrammatic concepts…
We calculate the possible Scott ranks of countable models of Peano arithmetic. We show that no non-standard model can have Scott rank less than $\omega$ and that non-standard models of true arithmetic must have Scott rank greater than…
We define topological orthoalgebras (TOAs) and study their properties. While every topological orthomodular lattice is a TOA, the lattice of projections of a Hilbert space is an example of a lattice-ordered TOA that is not a toplogical…
We prove that in Borel models of arithmetic on an uncountable Polish space, neither addition nor multiplication is continuous. This is an analogue of Tennenbaum's Theorem for topological models of arithmetic. This answers a question of…
We characterize models of Peano arithmetic (PA) with infinitely many infinite primes p such that p + 2 has no finite prime divisor.
It is well-known that the first order Peano axioms PA have a continuum of non-isomorphic countable models. The question, how close to being isomorphic such countable models can be, seems to be less investigated. A measure of closeness to…
We prove various extensions of the Tennenbaum phenomenon to the case of computable quotient presentations of models of arithmetic and set theory. Specifically, no nonstandard model of arithmetic has a computable quotient presentation by a…
We prove that if a linear equation, whose coefficients are continuous rational functions on a nonsingular real algebraic surface, has a continuous solution, then it also has a continuous rational solution. This is known to fail in higher…
Simpson showed that every countable model $\mathcal{M} \models \mathsf{PA}$ has an expansion $(\mathcal{M}, X) \models \mathsf{PA}^*$ that is pointwise definable. A natural question is whether, in general, one can obtain expansions of a…
Linear arithmetics are extensions of Presburger arithmetic (Pr) by one or more unary functions, each intended as multiplication by a fixed element (scalar), and containing the full induction schemes for their respective languages. In this…
Tennenbaum's theorem states that the only countable model of Peano arithmetic (PA) with computable arithmetical operations is the standard model of natural numbers. In this paper, we use constructive type theory as a framework to revisit,…
This is a survey of results on definability and undefinability in models of arithmetic. The goal is to present a stark difference between undefinability results in the standard model and much stronger versions about expansions of…
We deal with models of Peano arithmetic (specifically with a question of Ali Enayat). The methods are from creature forcing. We find an expansion of N such that its theory has models with no (elementary) end extensions. In fact there is a…
We consider implicit definability of the standard part {0,1,...} in nonstandard models of Peano arithmetic (PA), and we ask whether there is a model of PA in which the standard part is implicitly definable. In section 1, we define a certain…
The starting point of this paper is the existence of Peano curves, that is, continuous surjections mapping the unit interval onto the unit square. From this fact one can easily construct of a continuous surjection from the real line…
We investigate the theory PAI (Peano Arithmetic with Indiscernibles). Models of PAI are of the form (M, I), where M is a model of PA, I is an unbounded set of order indiscernibles over M, and (M, I) satisfies the extended induction scheme…
A subset of a model of ${\sf PA}$ is called neutral if it does not change the $\mathrm{dcl}$ relation. A model with undefinable neutral classes is called neutrally expandable. We study the existence and non-existence of neutral sets in…
Let X be a compact nonsingular real algebraic variety. We prove that if a continuous map from X into the unit p-sphere is homotopic to a continuous rational map, then, under certain assumptions, it can be approximated in the compact-open…
In this paper we study representations of real numbers in a numeral system with the base $a>1$ and alphabet (digits set) $A\equiv\{0,1,...,r\}$, $a-1<r\in N$ given by \[x=\sum\limits_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{\alpha_n}{a^n}\equiv…
