In this note, we present a characterization of sets definable in Skolem arithmetic, i.e., the first-order theory of natural numbers with multiplication. This characterization allows us to prove the decidability of the theory. The idea is…
Supervaluational fixed-point semantics for truth cannot be axiomatized because of its recursion-theoretic complexity. Johannes Stern (\emph{Supervaluation-Style Truth Without Supervaluations}, Journal of Philosophical Logic, 2018) proposed…
Given infinite cardinals $\theta\leq \kappa$, we ask for the minimal VC-dimension of a cofinal family $\mathcal{F}\subseteq[\kappa]^{<\theta}$. We show that for $\theta=\omega$ and $\kappa=\aleph_n$ it is consistent with ZFC that there…
In a previous paper, we recast Morgado hyperlattices and Sette implicative hyperlattices in lattice-theoretic terms. By utilizing swap structures induced by implicative lattices, we obtained a direct proof of soundness and completeness for…
In this paper, we present a typed lambda calculus ${\bf SILL}(\lambda)_{\Sigma}$, a type-theoretic version of intuitionistic linear logic with subexponentials, that is, we have many resource comonadic modalities with some interconnections…
It is a long-standing open problem whether modal logics of the form $\mathbf{K} \oplus \Box^n p \to \Box^m p$ for $n>m>1$ have the finite model property (FMP). We solve this by showing that any modal logic axiomatized by formulas of the…
We show that the theory $\mathsf{WKL}^*_0+\mathsf{CAC}$ is polynomially simulated by $\mathsf{RCA}_0^*$ with respect to $\forall\Pi^0_3$ formulas. For the proof, we use the method of forcing interpretations and syntactically simulate a…
The present paper is concerned with the relation between recurrence axioms and Laver-generic large cardinal axioms in light of principles of generic absoluteness and the Ground Axiom. M. Viale proved that Martin's Maximum$^{++}$ together…
Rosser theories play an important role in the study of the incompleteness phenomenon and meta-mathematics of arithmetic. In this paper, we first define the notions of $n$-Rosser theories, exact $n$-Rosser theories, effectively $n$-Rosser…
In this paper, we deal with the notions of naturality from category theory and definablity from model theory and their interactions. In this regard, we present three results. First, we show, under some mild conditions, that naturality…
In this work, we aim at understanding incompleteness in an abstract way via metamathematical properties of formal theories. We systematically examine the relationships between the following twelve important metamathematical properties of…
This is a paper for a special issue of the journal "Studia Semiotyczne" devoted to Stanislaw Krajewski's paper [30]. This paper gives some supplementary notes to Krajewski's [30] on the Anti-Mechanist Arguments based on G\"{o}del's…
In this paper, we prove that: if $\kappa$ is supercompact and the $\mathsf{HOD}$ Hypothesis holds, then there is a proper class of regular cardinals in $V_{\kappa}$ which are measurable in $\mathsf{HOD}$. Woodin also proved this result. As…
In this paper we characterize the strong reflecting property for $L$-cardinals for all $\omega_n$, characterize Harrington's Principle $HP(L)$ and its generalization and discuss the relationship between the strong reflecting property for…
Let $Z_3$ denote $3^{rd}$ order arithmetic. Let Harrington's Principle, HP, denote the statement that there is a real $x$ such that every $x$--admissible ordinal is a cardinal in $L$. In this paper, assuming there exists a remarkable…
Throughout mathematics there are constructions where an object is obtained as a limit of an infinite sequence. Typically, the objects in the sequence improve as the sequence progresses, and the ideal is reached at the limit. I introduce a…
We provide a general abstract statement of the Massicot-Wagner method: our main result is an assymetric version (i.e. a version for group actions) of the recursive Massicot-Wagner argument.
Given a first-order theory $T$ formulated in the usual language of first-order arithmetic, we say that $T$ is of *restricted complexity* if there is some natural number $n$ and some set $\mathcal A$ of $\Sigma_n$-sentences such that $T$ can…
We show that the vanishing of higher derived limits of the system $\mathbf{A}_\kappa$ implies the additivity of strong homology on the class of locally compact metric spaces of weight at most $\kappa$, thereby establishing a converse to a…
We provides some new equivalent forms of collection principle over some very weak set theories after reviewing the existing ones.
