The purpose of this article is to study the role of G\"odel's functional interpretation in the extraction of programs from proofs in well quasi-order theory. The main focus is on the interpretation of Nash-Williams' famous minimal bad…
G\"odel's Dialectica interpretation was designed to obtain a relative consistency proof for Heyting arithmetic, to be used in conjunction with the double negation interpretation to obtain the consistency of Peano arithmetic. In recent…
Goedel's functional "Dialectica" interpretation can be used to extract functional programs from non-constructive proofs in arithmetic by employing two sorts of higher-order witnessing terms: positive realisers and negative counterexamples.…
This paper studies logical aspects of the notion of better quasi order, which has been introduced by C. Nash-Williams (Mathematical Proceedings of the Cambridge Philosophical Society 1965 & 1968). A central tool in the theory of better…
We reprove the countable splitting lemma by adapting Nawrotzki's algorithm which produces a sequence that converges to a solution. Our algorithm combines Nawrotzki's approach with taking finite cuts. It is constructive in the sense that…
G\"odel's Dialectica interpretation is a fundamental tool for the extraction of computational content from proofs, and plays a central role in today's proof mining program. In the past decades, it has also been studied from the perspective…
The minimal bad sequence argument due to Nash-Williams is a powerful tool in combinatorics with important implications for theoretical computer science. In particular, it yields a very elegant proof of Kruskal's theorem. At the same time,…
We show that it is possible to define a realizability interpretation for the $\Sigma_2$-fragment of classical Analysis using G\"odel's System T only. This supplements a previous result of Schwichtenberg regarding bar recursion at types 0…
We present two Dialectica-like constructions for models of intensional Martin-L\"of type theory based on G\"odel's original Dialectica interpretation and the Diller-Nahm variant, bringing dependent types to categorical proof theory. We set…
We show that Nash-Williams' theorem asserting that the countable transfinite sequences of elements of a better-quasi-ordering ordered by embeddability form a better-quasi-ordering is provable in the subsystem of second order arithmetic…
We develop a new analysis for the length of controlled bad sequences in well-quasi-orderings based on Higman's Lemma. This leads to tight multiply-recursive upper bounds that readily apply to several verification algorithms for…
G\"odel's Dialectica has been introduced and developed in the tradition of the so-called functional interpretations. Only recently has it been related with the a priori unrelated notion of differentiation, by taking a program-theoretic…
G\"odel's Dialectica interpretation was conceived as a tool to obtain the consistency of Peano arithmetic via a proof of consistency of Heyting arithmetic in the 40s. In recent years, several proof-theoretic transformations, based on…
In the paper we introduce a weak set theory $\mathsf{H}_{<\omega}$ . A formalization of arithmetic on finite von Neumann ordinals gives an embedding of arithmetical language into this theory. We show that $\mathsf{H}_{<\omega}$ proves a…
We present a locale that abstracts over the necessary ingredients for constructing a minimal bad sequence, as required in classical proofs of Higman's lemma and Kruskal's tree theorem.
Let $D$ be a dictionary in a Hilbert space $H$, that is, a set of unit elements whose linear combinations are dense in $H$. We consider the least $m$-term deviation $\sigma_m(x)$ of an element $x\in H$: this is the distance of $x$ from the…
We derive an intuitionistic version of G\"odel-L\"ob modal logic ($\sf{GL}$) in the style of Simpson, via proof theoretic techniques. We recover a labelled system, $\sf{\ell IGL}$, by restricting a non-wellfounded labelled system for…
The usage of elementary submodels is a simple but powerful method to prove theorems, or to simplify proofs in infinite combinatorics. First we introduce all the necessary concepts of logic, then we prove classical theorems using elementary…
We focus on the persistence principle over weak interpretability logic. Our object of study is the logic obtained by adding the persistence principle to weak interpretability logic from several perspectives. Firstly, we prove that this…
We use G\"{o}del's Dialectica interpretation to produce a computational version of the well known proof of Ramsey's theorem by Erd\H{o}s and Rado. Our proof makes use of the product of selection functions, which forms an intuitive…
