Paradox and Potential Infinity
Journal of Philosophical Logic 42 (1):195-219 (2013)
| Abstract | We describe a variety of sets internal to models of intuitionistic set theory that (1) manifest some of the crucial behaviors of potentially infinite sets as described in the foundational literature going back to Aristotle, and (2) provide models for systems of predicative arithmetic. We close with a brief discussion of Church’s Thesis for predicative arithmetic. | |||||||||
