Computational structuralism

open access: yes, 2005
According to structuralism in philosophy of mathematics, arithmetic is about a single structure. First-order theories are satisfied by (nonstandard) models that do not instantiate this structure.

Truth, collection and deflationism in models of peano arithmetic

open access: yes, 2015
This thesis focuses on adding collection axioms to satisfaction classes and exploring the suitability of a formal deflationary truth predicate. Chapter 2 proves that every nonstandard, recursively saturated model of PA has a satisfaction class in which ...

Ultrafilters maximal for finite embeddability

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper we study a notion of preorder that arises in combinatorial number theory, namely the finite embeddability between sets of natural numbers, and its generalization to ultrafilters, which is related to the algebraical and topological structure

Polynomial Time Computations in Models of ET

open access: yes, 1982
We investigate formal notions of computations in nonstandard models of the weak arithmetic theory ET - the theory of exponential time.

Indiscernibles and satisfaction classes in arithmetic

open access: yes
We investigate the theory PAI (Peano Arithmetic with Indiscernibles). Models of PAI are of the form (M, I), where M is a model of PA, I is an unbounded set of order indiscernibles over M, and (M, I) satisfies the extended induction scheme for formulae ...

Preservation theorems and restricted consistency statements in bounded arithmetic

open access: yes, 2004
In this article we prove preservation theorems for theories of bounded arithmetic. The following one is well-known: The ∀Π b 1 - separation of bounded arithmetic theories S i 2 from T j 2 (1 ≤ i ≤ j) is equivalent to the existence of a model of S i 2 ...

On the Construction and Comparison of an Explicit Iterative Algorithm with Nonstandard Finite Difference Schemes

open access: yes, 2013
An explicit iterative algorithm to solve both linear and nonlinear problems of ordinary differential equations with initial conditions is formulated with main focus given on its comparison with some non-standard finite difference schemes. Two first order

THE MINIMAL E-DEGREE PROBLEM IN FRAGMENTS OF PEANO ARITHMETIC

open access: yes, 2008
. We study the minimal enumeration degree (e-degree) problem in models of fragments of Peano arithmetic (PA) and prove the following results: In any model M of Σ2 induction, there is a minimal enumeration degree if and only if M is a nonstandard model ...

On counting problems in nonstandard models of Peano arithmetic with applications to groups

open access: yes, 2014
Coding devices in Peano arithmetic (PA) allow complicated finite objects such as groups to be encoded in a model \(M\) ╞ PA. We call such coded objects \(M\) -finite.

Real closed fields and models of Peano Arithmetic

open access: yes, 2010
Shepherdson [14] showed that for a discrete ordered ring I , I is a model of IOpen iff I is an integer part of a real closed ordered field. In this paper, we consider integer parts satisfying PA.
