Kripke's Reduction of Löb's Theorem to the Second Incompleteness Theorem

open access: yesTheoria, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we discuss Kripke's reduction of Löb's Principle to the Second Incompleteness Theorem. We have a closer look at the non‐constructive character of the reduction. We reflect on what the argument has to tell us. In the Appendix, We give a strengthening of Löb's Principle suggested by Kripke's reduction.

Towards a Thoroughly Kripkean Theory of Proper Name Reference

open access: yesTheoria, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the late 1960s and early 1970s, both Saul Kripke and Keith Donnellan challenged descriptivist theories of proper names, arguing that reference—at least in their case—is basically a historical relation. However, as has become increasingly recognised over the past decade, their pictures differ substantially: when confronted with a token of a ...

Resilience and Sorites in the Normative Domain and Beyond

open access: yesTheoria, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The sorites paradox is central to theories on vagueness, which aim to explain apparent contradictions. Some theories, however, imply sharp cut‐offs where we would, intuitively, not expect them. This paper invokes the notion of normative resilience to address this issue.

Superlative Objoid Constructions in British and American English

open access: yesWorld Englishes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates regional variation in Superlative Objoid constructions (SOCs) and their prepositional variant (at‐SOCs). SOCs combine a possessive pronoun with a superlative adjective. These function as manner‐degree modifiers in a context where the possessive is in postverbal position and correlative with the subject, as in they tried

Lifts of continuous and Hölder alpha curves in the configuration space MN/SN$M^N/S_N$

open access: yesTransactions of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 13, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract In this paper, we study the quotient space X=MN/SN$X = M^N / S_N$ of equivalence classes of N$N$‐tuples in a metric space (M,dM)$(M, d_M)$, equipped with the metric induced by the minimal total pairing distance. Given a continuous path F:(0,1)→X$F: (0,1) \rightarrow X$, we prove that there exist continuous functions f1,⋯,fN:(0,1)→M$f_1, \dots,
