Automorphisms of models of bounded arithmetic

Ali Enayat (2006)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We establish the following model-theoretic characterization of the fragment IΔ₀ + Exp + BΣ₁ of Peano arithmetic in terms of fixed points of automorphisms of models of bounded arithmetic (the fragment IΔ₀ of Peano arithmetic with induction limited to Δ₀-formulae). Theorem A. The following two conditions are equivalent for a countable model of the language of arithmetic: (a) satisfies IΔ₀ + BΣ₁ + Exp; (b) = I f i x ( j ) for some nontrivial automorphism j of an end extension of that satisfies IΔ₀. Here I f i x ( j ) is the...

Axiomatizing omega and omega-op powers of words

Stephen L. Bloom, Zoltán Ésik (2004)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

In 1978, Courcelle asked for a complete set of axioms and rules for the equational theory of (discrete regular) words equipped with the operations of product, omega power and omega-op power. In this paper we find a simple set of equations and prove they are complete. Moreover, we show that the equational theory is decidable in polynomial time.

Axioms which imply GCH

Jan Mycielski (2003)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We propose some new set-theoretic axioms which imply the generalized continuum hypothesis, and we discuss some of their consequences.
