Venn-type diagrams for arguments ofnterms
Authors: Anderson Daniel E. , Cleaver Frank L. 
Published: May 2006

The attempt to find usable diagrams fornterms of the sort devised by John Venn seems to have originated with Venn himself, who published diagrams for up to five classes (the fifth class, however, was shaped like a doughnut, and contained an area outside itself — like the hole in the doughnut). Venn then suggested that “if we wanted to use a diagram forsixterms (x, y, z, w, v, u) the best plan would probably be to taketwofive-term figures, one for theupart and one for the non-upart of all the other combinations …” Such a method would, as Venn admits, be somewhat confusing to the eye, and thus fail to fulfil one of the major purposes of the diagram; nevertheless, it is a method which could be extended to covernclasses.Venn also suggests (but without illustration) another method for drawing diagrams fornterms: “… the rule of formation would be very simple. We should merely have to begin by drawing any closed figure, and then proceed to draw others subject to the one condition that each intersect once, and once only, all the existing subdivisions produced by those which had gone before.” Then, in a rather surprising footnote, he adds: “It will be found that when we adhere to continuous figures, instead of the discontinuous five-term figure given above, there is a tendency for the resultant outlines thus successively drawn to assume a comb-like shape after the first four or five. If we begin by circles or other rounded figures the teeth are curved, if by parallelograms then they are straight.
Limit ultraproducts
Authors: Keisler H. Jerome 
Published: May 2006

This paper is a sequel to our earlier paper, “Limit Ultrapowers”, [6]. In that paper we introduced the limit ultrapower construction and proved that is isomorphic to a limit ultrapower of if and only if every PCΔ class which contains also contains . In Section 1 of this paper we introduce the more general limit ultraproduct construction, and in Section 2 we prove that, for any class K of relational systems, a relational system is isomorphic to a limit ultraproduct of members of K if and only if every PCΔ class which includes K also contains . As a consequence, the property of K being an intersection of PCΔ classes is characterized purely set-theoretically by the property of K being closed under isomorphisms and limit ultraproducts.In Section 3 we apply limit ultraproducts to obtain model-theoretic conditions equivalent to the set-theoretic condition that every α-complete ultrafilter is γ+-complete. The first result, Theorem 3.7, was announced in the abstract [8], and it is also closely related to a result which was stated without proof in [10], namely Theorem 2 of that paper.In Sections 4 and 5 we apply our results in order to improve a theorem of Craig in [2]. Craig considered the logic L(Q), where Q is a set of cardinals, obtained from ordinary first order logic by adding for each α ϵ Q the quantifier “there exist at least α”.
On theories categorical in their own power
Authors: Keisler H. Jerome 
Published: May 2006

A theory T is said to be categorical in power κ iff T has a model of power κ and any two models of power κ are isomorphic.It was conjectured by Morley [4] that if T is a theory in a language with κ > ω symbols and T is categorical in power κ, then T has a model of power < κ. The aim of this paper is to prove the following theorem.Theorem A. Let κ be a regular cardinal such that ω < κ < 2ω. Let T be a theory in a language with κ symbols such that T is categorical in power κ. Then:(a) T has a model of power < κ.(b) T is categorical in all powers μ ≥ κ.
Limiting recursion
Authors: Gold E. Mark 
Published: May 2006

A class of problems is called decidable if there is an algorithm which will give the answer to any problem of the class after a finite length of time. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the classes of problems that can be solved by infinitely long decision procedures in the following sense: An algorithm is given which, for any problem of the class, generates an infinitely long sequence of guesses. The problem will be said to be solved in the limit if, after some finite point in the sequence, all the guesses are correct and the same (in case there is more than one correct answer). Functions, sets, and functionals which are decidable by such infinite algorithms will be calledlimiting recursive. These, together with classes of objects which can beidentified in the limit, are the subjects of this report.Without qualification,setwill mean set of numbers;functionwill mean number-theoretic function of 1 variable, possibly partial;functionalswill take numerical values and have any number of numerical and/or function variables, the latter ranging solely over total functions of 1 variable. Thus a function is a special case of a functional,xwill invariably stand for a numerical variable;φfor a function variable;gfor a guess (a number);nfor the numerical variable which indexes the guesses, referred to as thetime.
Linear orderings under one-one reducibility
Authors: Young Paul R. 
Published: May 2006

In [2], Fischer has shown the existence of a bounded-truth-table degree of unsolvability which contains a collection of many-one degrees which has, under many-one reducibility, the order type, ω, of the positive integers. In [1; pg. 124], Dekker and Myhill give a construction which shows that the many-one degree of any simple set contains a collection of one-one degrees of simple sets which has, under one-one reducibility, the order type (ω + ω*) ·ω. A basic result of recursive function theory (due to Myhill) is that the creative sets form a many-one degree which consists of a single one-one degree (i.e. a single recursive isomorphism type).It is well known that the recursive sets form three many-one degrees. Two of these, the degrees of the empty set and of the set of all integers, consist of single one-one degrees.
Omitting types of prenex formulas
Authors: Chang C. C. 
Published: May 2006

In the literature, a type Γ is a set of formulas ϕ(ν0) in the one free variable ν0. A model M realizes Γ if there is an element a of M such thatM ╞ ϕ [a] for all ϕ ∈ Γ.A model M omits Γ if no element of M realizes Γ. Evidently, the two statements:(*) M realizes Γand(**) M omits Γ
A method of modelling the formalism of set theory in axiomatic set theory
Authors: Kruse A. H. 
Published: May 2006

As is well known, some paradoxes arise through inadequate analysis of the meanings of terms in a language, an adequate analysis showing that the paradoxes arise through a lack of separation of an object theory and a metatheory. Under such an adequate analysis in which parts of the metatheory are modelled in the object theory, the paradoxes give way to remarkable theorems establishing limitations of the object theory.Such a modelling is often accomplished by a Gödel numbering. Here we shall use a somewhat different technique in axiomatic set theory, from which we shall reap a few results having the effect of comparing the strength of various axiom schema of comprehension for sets and classes (cf. the numbered results of §§5–7). Similar results were obtained by A. Mostowski [7] using Gödel numbering (cf. 5.3 and 7.3 below).
An addendum
Authors: Kleene S. C. 
Published: May 2006

This addendum supplies details of the proof in 3.6 of our paper Disjunction and existence under implication in elementary intuition-istic formalisms in this Journal, vol. 27 (1962), pp. 11–18, as promised in Footnote 8 of that paper (p. 16 lines 11 and 16, for “├” read “|”).A congruence-substitution (or free substitution with change of bound variables) on a formula E with result F consists in, simultaneously, substituting for each of the free variables of E in all its free occurrences a respective term and replacing each bound occurrence of a variable in E by a respective variable, so that (a) each image in F of a free occurrence of a variable in E is free (IM p. 410) and (b) each image in F of a bound occurrence of a variable in E is bound by the corresponding quantifier (i.e. if the j-th quantifier in E binds the original occurrence, then the j-th quantifier in F binds the image).
Natural models and Ackermann-type set theories
Authors: Lake John 
Published: May 2006

Our results concern the natural models of Ackermann-type set theories, but they can also be viewed as results about the definability of ordinals in certain sets.Ackermann's set theory A was introduced in [1] and it is now formulated in the first order predicate calculus with identity, using ∈ for membership and an individual constant V for the class of all sets. We use the letters ϕ, χ, θ, and χ to stand for formulae which do not contain V and capital Greek letters to stand for any formulae. Then, the axioms of A* are the universal closures ofwhere all the free variables are shown in A4 and z does not occur in the Θ of A2. A is the theory A* − A5.Most of our notation is standard (for instance, α, β, γ, δ, κ, λ, ξ are variables ranging over ordinals) and, in general, we follow the notation of [7]. When x ⊆ Rα, we use Df(Rα, x) for the set of those elements of Rα which are definable in 〈Rα, ∈〉, using a first order ∈-formula and parameters from x.We refer the reader to [7] for an outline of the results which are known about A, but we shall summarise those facts which are frequently used in this paper.
Chang's conjecture and powers of singular cardinals
Authors: Magidor Menachem 
Published: May 2006

In [2] Galvin and Hajnal showed, as a corollary to a more general result, that if , is a strong limit cardinal, then . They established similar bounds for powers of singular cardinals of cofinality greater than ω. Jech and Prikry in [3] showed that the Galvin-Hajnal bound can be improved if we assume that ω1 carries an ω2 saturated ω1 complete, nontrivial ideal. (See [7] for definitions), namely: under the given assumption provided is a strong limit cardinal.In this paper we show that the same conclusion can be derived from Chang's Conjecture (see below) which is, at least consistencywise, a weaker assumption than the existence of an ω2 saturated ideal on ω1. We do not know if assumptions like these are necessary for obtaining the result.Our notations and terminology should be understood by any reader acquainted with set theory. Chang's Conjecture is the following model theoretic assumption introduced by C. C. Chang:which is deciphered as follows: Every structure 〈A, R,…〉 in a countable type where ∣A∣ = ω2, R ⊆ A, ∣R∣ = ω1 has an elementary substructure: 〈A′,R′,…〉 where ∣A′∣ = ω1 and ∣R′∣ = ω0. The consistency of Chang's Conjecture modulo the existence of Ramsey cardinals is claimed in [5].
An interpolation lemma for the pure implicational calculus
Authors: Edelstein Roy 
Published: May 2006

Although a variety of proofs are available for the Craig-Lyndon Interpolation Lemma, they all seem to make essential use of negation, with the result that they are inapplicable to deductive theories in which negation cannot be expressed. It is here shown that this use of negation can be avoided by extending the Interpolation Lemma to the pure implicational calculus PCI.Determinate Parameter Lemma. For each formula A, ⊨PA ⊃ A for some sentence parameter PA occurring in A.Proof. By induction on the construction of A.Interpolation Lemma For PCI. Let Γ be the set of sentence parameters common to A and C.If ⊨A ⊃ and C is not valid, then there is a formula B containing no sentence parameter not in Y such that ⊨A ⊃ B and ⊨B ⊃ C.Proof. Since ⊨PA ⊃ A by the Determinate Parameter Lemma and ⊨A ⊃ C, ⊨PA ⊃ C. But C is by hypothesis an invalid formula, so PA must occur in C as well as in A. Thus PA Є Γ.
Derived rules of inference related to the continuity of effective operations
Authors: Beeson Michael J. 
Published: May 2006

In [B1] and [B2] we have shown that the classical theorems on the continuity of effective operations are not derivable in various constructive formal systems. The purpose of this paper is to establish that these systems are closed under the corresponding rules of inference, which have the form: If e can be proved to be (the index of) an effective operation, then e can be proved to be continuous. In fact we establish closure under apparently stronger rules of the form, if e can be proved to be an effective operation, then e* can be proved to be (the index of) a modulus of continuity for e, where e* is canonically obtained from e.We again deal with two kinds of effective operations: (i) partial operations on partial arguments, and (ii) total operations on total arguments. The continuity theorem for operations of kind (i) is due to Myhill-Shepherdson [MS] and is called MS; for kind (ii) is due to Kreisel, Lacombe, and Shoenfield [KLS] and is called KLS. We also deal with effective operations on the (recursive) real numbers, which are of kind (ii). In [B1], [B2] it is shown that KLS and MS are derivable in in-tuitionistic arithmetic HA from Markov's principle MP (this follows from examination of the classical proofs); that they do not imply MP in HA; and that they are not derivable in HA. (These theorems remain true when HA is replaced by various stronger systems.) The derived rules to be established in this paper therefore represent nontrivial closure properties of the systems to which they apply.
Uniformly defined descending sequences of degrees
Authors: Friedman Harvey 
Published: May 2006

This paper answers some questions which naturally arise from the Spector-Gandy proof of their theorem that the π11 sets of natural numbers are precisely those which are defined by a Σ11 formula over the hyperarithmetic sets. Their proof used hierarchies on recursive linear orderings (H-sets) which are not well orderings. (In this respect they anticipated the study of nonstandard models of set theory.) The proof hinged on the following fact. Let e be a recursive linear ordering. Then e is a well ordering if and only if there is an H-set on e which is hyperarithmetic. It was implicit in their proof that there are recursive linear orderings which are not well orderings, on which there are H-sets. Further information on such nonstandard H-sets (often called pseudohierarchies) can be found in Harrison [4]. It is natural to ask: on which recursive linear orderings are there H-sets?In Friedman [1] it is shown that there exists a recursive linear ordering e that has no hyperarithmetic descending sequences such that no H-set can be placed on e. In [1] it is also shown that if e is a recursive linear ordering, every point of which has an immediate successor and either has finitely many predecessors or is finitely above a limit point (heretofore called adequate) such that an H-set can be placed on e, then e has no hyperarithmetic descending sequences. In a related paper, Friedman [2] shows that there is no infinite sequence xn of codes for ω-models of the arithmetic comprehension axiom scheme such that each xn+ 1 is a set in the ω-model coded by xn, and each xn+1 is the unique solution of P(xn, xn+1) for some fixed arithmetic P.
Large and small existentially closed structures
Authors: Simmons H. 
Published: May 2006

The generic structures introduced by Abraham Robinson are now well established in model theory. Anyone who works with these structures soon begins to feel that, in some sense, the infinite generic structures are large and the finite generic structures are small. Here ‘large’ and ‘small’ do not refer to the cardinality of the structures but are used in the way we describe saturated structures as large and atomic structures as small. In this paper I isolate what I consider to be the large and small existentially closed (e.c.) structures and attempt to determine their role in the class of all e.c. structures.In the usual context of model theory we are concerned with elementary embeddings and all formulas. E.c. structures are concerned with all embeddings and ∃1-formulas. Thus we need to look at ∃1-analogues of saturated and atomic structures. These ∃1-saturated structures have been around for some time; they are just the existentially universal structures. The corresponding ∃1-atomic structures are not new here (they appear in [8]) but I believe that this paper will add much to the understanding of them.The bulk of this paper is in §§2 and 4. §2 deals with ∃1-atomic structures, and §4 is concerned with the ∃1-analogues of several results in Vaught's paper [12].A similar program has been carried out by Pouzet in [6], [7], [8]; however, there the significance of e.c. and e.c. structures is not realized and consequently some of the simplicity of the situation is lost.
Projective planes of infinite but isolic order
Authors: Dekker J. C. E. 
Published: May 2006

The main purpose of this paper is to show how partial recursive functions and isols can be used to generalize the following three well-known theorems of combinatorial theory.(I) For every finite projective plane Π there is a unique number n such that Π has exactly n2 + n + 1 points and exactly n2 + n + 1 lines.(II) Every finite projective plane of order n can be coordinatized by a finite planar ternary ring of order n. Conversely, every finite planar ternary ring of order n coordinatizes a finite projective plane of order n.(III) There exists a finite projective plane of order n if and only if there exist n − 1 mutually orthogonal Latin squares of order n.
Copeland algebras
Authors: Demaree Daniel B. 
Published: May 2006

It is well known that the laws of logic governing the sentence connectives—“and”, “or”, “not”, etc.—can be expressed by means of equations in the theory of Boolean algebras. The task of providing a similar algebraic setting for the full first-order predicate logic is the primary concern of algebraic logicians. The best-known efforts in this direction are the polyadic algebras of Halmos (cf. [2]) and the cylindric algebras of Tarski (cf. [3]), both of which may be described as Boolean algebras with infinitely many additional operations. In particular, there is a primitive operator, cκ, corresponding to each quantification, ∃υκ. In this paper we explore a version of algebraic logic conceived by A. H. Copeland, Sr., and described in [1], which has this advantage: All operators are generated from a finite set of primitive operations.Following the theory of cylindric algebras, we introduce, in the natural way, the classes of Copeland set algebras (SCpA), representable Copeland algebras (RCpA), and Copeland algebras of formulas. Playing a central role in the discussion is the set, Γ, of all equations holding in every set algebra. The reason for this is that the operations in a set algebra reflect the notion of satisfaction of a formula in a model, and hence an equation expresses the fact that two formulas are satisfied by the same sequences of objects in the model. Thus to say that an equation holds in every set algebra is to assert that a certain pair of formulas are logically equivalent.
Recursively presentable prime models
Authors: Harrington Leo 
Published: May 2006

It is well known that a decidable theory possesses a recursively presentable model. If a decidable theory also possesses a prime model, it is natural to ask if the prime model has a recursive presentation. This has been answered affirmatively for algebraically closed fields [5], and for real closed fields, Hensel fields and other fields [3]. This paper gives a positive answer for the theory of differentially closed fields, and for any decidable ℵ1-categorical theory.The language of a theory T is denoted by L(T). All languages will be presumed countable. An x-type of T is a set of formulas with free variables x, which is consistent with T and which is maximal in this property. A formula with free variables x is complete if there is exactly one x-type containing it. A type is principal if it contains a complete formula. A countable model of T is prime if it realizes only principal types. Vaught has shown that a complete countable theory can have at most one prime model up to isomorphism.If T is a decidable theory, then the decision procedure for T equips L(T) with an effective counting. Thus the formulas of L(T) correspond to integers. The integer a formula φ(x) corresponds to is generally called the Gödel number of φ(x) and is denoted by ⌜φ(x)⌝. The usual recursion theoretic notions defined on the set of integers can be transferred to L(T). In particular a type Γ is recursive with index e if {⌜φ⌝.; φ ∈ Γ} is a recursive set of integers with index e.
Decidability of some intuitionistic predicate theories
Authors: Gabbay Dov M. 
Published: May 2006

Suppose T is a first order intuitionistic theory (more precisely, a theory of Heyting's predicate calculus, e.g., abelian groups, one unary function, dense linear order, etc.) presented to us by a set of axioms (denoted also by) T.Question. Is T decidable?One knows that if the classical counterpart of T (i.e., take the same axioms but with the classical predicate calculus as the underlying logic) is not decidable, then T cannot be decidable. The problem remains for theories whose classical counterpart is decidable. In [8], sufficient conditions for undecidability were given, and several intuitionistic theories such as abelian groups and unary functions (both with decidable equality) were shown to be undecidable. In this note we show decidability results (see Theorems 1 and 2 below), and compare these results with the undecidability results previously obtained. The method we use is the reduction-method, described fully in [12] and widely applied in [3], which is applied here roughly as follows:Let T be a given theory of Heyting's predicate calculus. We know that Heyting's predicate calculus is complete for the Kripke-model type of semantics. We choose a class M of Kripke models for which T is complete, i.e., all axioms of T are valid in any model of the class and whenever φ is not a theorem of T, φ is false in some model of M.
Imbedding of the quantum logic in the modal system of Brower
Authors: Dishkant Herman 
Published: May 2006

We lean upon the usual variant of the logic of quantum mechanics [1]. Here the propositions correspond to the results of the quantum experiments. A beautiful essay [2] may be connected with a conservation of semantics. But we try to broaden the semantics, admitting propositions about the possibility of results of experiments. Doing so, we fulfil the old wish of W. A. Fock, who attracts our attention to the importance of the modal categories for the interpretation of the quantum theory [3].We begin with the formal description of the modal system Br+. The alphabet contains the signs ~, ∨ and Ↄ (negation, alternative and the sign of necessity), the set V of the prepositional variables and parentheses. The rules of formation are: if A ∈ V, then A is a proposition; if X and Y are propositions, then ~ X, X ∨ Y and Ↄ X are propositions also; there are no other propositions. ℬ will design the set of all propositions.The rules of transformation are the following:.Here X, Y ∈ ℬ. The sign ⊨ denotes the derivability in Br+ (in one step here).
