    Provability Logic and the Completeness Principle

    Full text link
    In this paper, we study the provability logic of intuitionistic theories of arithmetic that prove their own completeness. We prove a completeness theorem for theories equipped with two provability predicates □\Box and △\triangle that prove the schemes A→△AA\to\triangle A and □△S→□S\Box\triangle S\to\Box S for S∈Σ1S\in\Sigma_1. Using this theorem, we determine the logic of fast provability for a number of intuitionistic theories. Furthermore, we reprove a theorem previously obtained by M. Ardeshir and S. Mojtaba Mojtahedi determining the Σ1\Sigma_1-provability logic of Heyting Arithmetic

    We give a general overview of ordinal notation systems arising from reflection calculi, and extend the to represent impredicative ordinals up to those representable using Buchholz-style collapsing functions
