This paper has been withdrawn. Theorem 2.1 of the paper is false, as it contradicts a result of Srinvas (Crelle's J. v.381, 1987). The error in our proof is in the construction of a functor in Claim 2. What we construct does not preserve…
We present an analogue of G\"{o}del's second incompleteness theorem for systems of second-order arithmetic. Whereas G\"{o}del showed that sufficiently strong theories that are $\Pi^0_1$-sound and $\Sigma^0_1$-definable do not prove their…
We investigate relationships between versions of derivability conditions for provability predicates. We show several implications and non-implications between the conditions, and we discuss unprovability of consistency statements induced by…
This paper has been withdrawn by the author due to an error in the proof of Theorem 6.
In this paper, we provide a complete classification for the first-order Goedel logics concerning the property that the formulas admit logically equivalent prenex normal forms. We show that the only first-order Goedel logics that admit such…
This paper revisits the foundations of mathematical proof through the lens of Aristotle's threefold conception of truth: sensory evidence, axiomatic definition, and syllogistic deduction. I argue that modern mathematics has too often…
We show that it is consistent, relative to the consistency of a strongly inaccessible cardinal, that an instance of the generalized Borel Conjecture introduced in [8] holds while the classical Borel Conjecture fails.
In this paper, we axiomatize the negatable consequences in dependence and independence logic by extending the systems of natural deduction of the logics given in (Kontinen and Vaananen 2013) and (Hannula 2015). We prove a characterization…
One way of proving theorems in modal logics is translating them into the predicate calculus and then using conventional resolution-style theorem provers. This approach has been regarded as inappropriate in practice, because the resulting…
In 1964, Paul Erd\H{o}s published a paper settling a question about function spaces that he had seen in a problem book. Erd\H{o}s proved that the answer was yes if and only if the continuum hypothesis was false: an innocent-looking question…
This paper has been withdrawn by the author. The statement of the Main Theorem but is wrong in general, there have been provided counterexamples. The main theorem only holds conditionally, under the finiteness statement of theorem 2.8.
Non-compact proofs are a class of reasoning that is used in mathematics but overlooked in the analysis of (un)provability of consistency. We focus on proofs of arithmetical statements (*) "for any natural number n, F(n)." A proof of (*) is…
A proof of G\"odel's incompleteness theorem is given. With this new proof a transfinite extension of G\"odel's theorem is considered. It is shown that if one assumes the set theory ZFC on the meta level as well as on the object level, a…
In the paper it is demonstrated that Bells theorem is an unprovable theorem.
The statement of Lemma 3.1 in the published paper is not correct. Lemma 3.1 is needed for the proof of Theorem 3.2. Theorem 3.2 as originally stated is true but its "proof" is not correct. Here we change the statements and proofs of Lemma…
In this short paper, I present a few theorems on sentences of arithmetic which are related to Yablo's Paradox as G\"odel's first undecidable sentence was related to the Liar paradox. In particular, I consider two different arithemetizations…
It is argued that Goedel's incompleteness theorem should be seen as self-evident, rather than unexpected or surprising.
This paper has been withdrawn by the author since the proof of Lemma 8 is not correct.
This is a companion to a paper by the authors entitled "G\"odel on deduction", which examined the links between some philosophical views ascribed to G\"odel and general proof theory. When writing that other paper, the authors were not…
We give a survey of current research on G\"{o}del's incompleteness theorems from the following three aspects: classifications of different proofs of G\"{o}del's incompleteness theorems, the limit of the applicability of G\"{o}del's first…
