We study structural limitations of purely algebraic reasoning in the analysis of arithmetic dynamical systems. Rather than addressing the truth of specific conjectures, we introduce a fragment - relative notion of algebraic refutability for…

We consider different classes of combinatory structures related to Krivine realizability. We show, in the precise sense that they give rise to the same class of triposes, that they are equivalent for the purpose of modeling higher-order…

In this note we give a simplified ordinal analysis of first-order reflection. An ordinal notation system $OT$ is introduced based on $\psi$-functions. Provable $\Sigma_{1}$-sentences on $L_{\omega_{1}^{CK}}$ are bounded through…

Presburger Arithmetic $\mathop{\mathbf{PrA}}\nolimits$ is the true theory of natural numbers with addition. We consider linear orderings interpretable in Presburger Arithmetic and establish various necessary and sufficient conditions for…

We prove Los conjecture = Morley theorem in ZF, with the same characterization (of first order countable theories categorical in aleph_alpha for some (equivalently for every) ordinal alpha>0. Another central result here is, in this context:…

Working in the context of reverse mathematics, we give a fine-grained characterization result on the strength of two possible definitions for Effective Transfinite Recursion used in literature. Moreover, we show that $\Pi^0_2$-induction…

S. Baker (2019), B. B\'ar\'any and A. K\"{a}enm\"{a}ki (2019) independently showed that there exist iterated function systems without exact overlaps and there are super-exponentially close cylinders at all small levels. We adapt the method…

We describe absolutely ordered $p$-normed spaces, for $1 \le p \le \infty$ which presents a model for "non-commutative" vector lattices and includes order theoretic orthogonality. To demonstrate its relevance, we introduce the notion of…

We introduce a new symbolic representation based on an original generalization of counter abstraction. Unlike classical counter abstraction (used in the analysis of parameterized systems with unordered or unstructured topologies) the new…

Predicate abstraction provides a powerful tool for verifying properties of infinite-state systems using a combination of a decision procedure for a subset of first-order logic and symbolic methods originally developed for finite-state model…

We introduce first order alternating automata, a generalization of boolean alternating automata, in which transition rules are described by multisorted first order formulae, with states and internal variables given by uninterpreted…

In this article, a sublinear expectation induced by $G$-expectation is introduced, which is called $G$-evaluation for convenience. As an application, we prove that any $\xi\in L^\beta_G(\Omega_T)$ with some $\beta>1$ the decomposition…

We prove that the theory of the extensional compositional truth predicate for the language of arithmetic with $\Delta_0$-induction scheme for the truth predicate and the full arithmetical induction scheme is not conservative over Peano…

Uniform metastable convergence is a weak form of uniform convergence for a family of sequences. In this paper we explore the way that metastable convergence stratifies into a family of notions indexed by countable ordinals. We give two…

We propose a framework for reasoning about programs that manipulate coinductive data as well as inductive data. Our approach is based on using equational programs, which support a seamless combination of computation and reasoning, and using…

Recursive saturation and resplendence are two important notions in models of arithmetic. Kaye, Kossak, and Kotlarski introduced the notion of arithmetic saturation and argued that recursive saturation might not be as rigid as first assumed.…

For each countable ordinal $\alpha$, we introduce an ideal $conv_\alpha$ and use it to characterize the class of all compact countable spaces which are homeomorphic to the space $\omega^{\alpha}\cdot n+1$ with the order topology. The…

An integer sequence that is defined by initial values and a linear recurrence with constant integer coefficients, can be represented by the difference of two arithmetic terms containing exponentiation. All constants occuring in the term are…

We exhibit a sound and complete implicit-complexity formalism for functions feasibly computable by structural recursions over inductively defined data structures. Feasibly computable here means that the structural-recursive definition runs…

Let's fix a reasonable subsystem $T$ of arithmetic; why are natural extensions of $T$ pre-well-ordered by consistency strength? In previous work, an approach to this question was proposed. The goal of this work was to classify the recursive…
