The technique of using infinitary rules in an ordinal analysis has been one of the most productive developments in ordinal analysis. Unfortunately, one of the most advanced variants, the Buchholz Ωμ rule, does not apply to systems much stronger than -comprehension. In this paper, we propose a new extension of the Ω rule using game-theoretic quantifiers. We apply this to a system of inductive definitions with at least the strength of a recursively inaccessible ordinal. |

The \-substitution method is a technique for giving consistency proofs for theories of arithmetic. We use this technique to give a proof of the consistency of the impredicative theory \ using a variant of the cut-elimination formalism introduced by Mints. No categories |

Sections 1 through 4 define, in the usual inductive style, various classes of object including one which is called the “combinatory terms of polymorphic type”. Section 5 defines a reduction relation on these terms. Section 6 shows that the weak normalizability of the combinatory terms of polymorphic type entails the weak normalizability of the lambda terms of polymorphic type. The entailment is not vacuous, because the combinatory terms of polymorphic type are indeed weakly normalizable, as is proven in Sect. 7 (...) No categories |

The paper relativizes the method of ordinal analysis developed for Kripke–Platek set theory to theories which have the power set axiom. We show that it is possible to use this technique to extract information about Power Kripke–Platek set theory, KP.As an application it is shown that whenever KP+AC proves a ΠP2 statement then it holds true in the segment Vτ of the von Neumann hierarchy, where τ stands for the Bachmann–Howard ordinal. |

Abstract.This paper is the second in a series of three culminating in an ordinal analysis of Π12-comprehension. Its objective is to present an ordinal analysis for the subsystem of second order arithmetic with Δ12-comprehension, bar induction and Π12-comprehension for formulae without set parameters. Couched in terms of Kripke-Platek set theory, KP, the latter system corresponds to KPi augmented by the assertion that there exists a stable ordinal, where KPi is KP with an additional axiom stating that every set is contained (...) |

Abstract.This paper is the first in a series of three which culminates in an ordinal analysis of Π12-comprehension. On the set-theoretic side Π12-comprehension corresponds to Kripke-Platek set theory, KP, plus Σ1-separation. The strength of the latter theory is encapsulated in the fact that it proves the existence of ordinals π such that, for all β>π, π is β-stable, i.e. Lπ is a Σ1-elementary substructure of Lβ. The objective of this paper is to give an ordinal analysis of a scenario of (...) |

In this paper we introduce a notation system for the infinitary derivations occurring in the ordinal analysis of KP + Π₃-Reflection due to Michael Rathjen. This allows a finitary ordinal analysis of KP + Π₃-Reflection. The method used is an extension of techniques developed by Wilfried Buchholz, namely operator controlled notation systems for RS∞-derivations. Similarly to Buchholz we obtain a characterisation of the provably recursive functions of KP + Π₃-Reflection as <-recursive functions where < is the ordering on Rathjen's ordinal (...) |

We will study patterns which occur when considering how Σ 1 -elementary substructures arise within hierarchies of structures. The order in which such patterns evolve will be seen to be independent of the hierarchy of structures provided the hierarchy satisfies some mild conditions. These patterns form the lowest level of what we call patterns of resemblance . They were originally used by the author to verify a conjecture of W. Reinhardt concerning epistemic theories 449–460; Ann. Pure Appl. Logic, to appear), (...) |

Part of the ambiguity lies in the various points of view from which this question might be considered. The crudest di erence lies between the point of view of the working mathematician and that of the logician concerned with the foundations of mathematics. Now some of my fellow mathematical logicians might protest this distinction, since they consider themselves to be just more of those \working mathematicians". Certainly, modern logic has established itself as a very respectable branch of mathematics, and there (...) |

This paper gives a formalization of general topology in second-order arithmetic using countably based MF spaces. This formalization is used to study the reverse mathematics of general topology. For each poset P we let MF denote the set of maximal filters on P endowed with the topology generated by {Np | p ∈ P}, where Np = {F ∈ MF | p ∈ F}. We define a countably based MF space to be a space of the form MF for some (...) |
