Let α be a limit ordinal with the property that any “recursive” function whose domain is a proper initial segment of α has its range bounded by α. α is then called admissible (in a sense to be made precise later) and a recursion theory can be developed on it (α-recursion theory) by providing the generalized notions of α-recursively enumerable, α-recursive and α-finite. Takeuti [12] was the first to study recursive functions of ordinals, the subject owing its further development to Kripke [7], Platek [8], Kreisel [6], and Sacks [9].Infinitary logic on the other hand (i.e., the study of languages which allow expressions of infinite length) was quite extensively studied by Scott [11], Tarski, Kreisel, Karp [5] and others. Kreisel suggested in the late '50's that these languages (even which allows countable expressions but only finite quantification) were too large and that one should only allow expressions which are, in some generalized sense, finite. This made the application of generalized recursion theory to the logic of infinitary languages appear natural. In 1967 Barwise [1] was the first to present a complete formalization of the restriction of to an admissible fragment (A a countable admissible set) and to prove that completeness and compactness hold for it. [2] is an excellent reference for a detailed exposition of admissible languages.

Let A be a countable admissible set (as defined in [1], [3]). The language LA consists of all infinitary finite-quantifier formulas (identified with sets, as in [1]) that are elements of A. Notationally, LA = A ∩ Lω1ω. Then LA is a countable subset of Lω1ω, the language of all infinitary finite-quantifier formulas with all conjunctions countable. The set is the set of Lω1ω sentences defined in 2.2 below. The following theorem characterizes those A-Σ1 sets Φ of LA sentences that have uncountable models.Main Theorem (3.1.). If Φ is an A-Σ1set of LA sentences, then the following are equivalent:(a) Φ has an uncountable model,(b) Φ has a model with a proper LA-elementary extension,(c) for every , ⋀Φ → C is not valid.This theorem was announced in [2] and is proved in §§3, 4, 5. Makkai's earlier [4, Theorem 1] implies that, if Φ determines countable structure up to Lω1ω-elementary equivalence, then (a) is equivalent to (c′) for all , ⋀Φ → C is not valid.The requirement in 3.1 that Φ is A-Σ1 is essential when the set ω of all natural numbers is an element of A. For by the example of [2], then there is a set Φ LA sentences such that (b) holds and (a) fails; it is easier to show that, if ω ϵ A, there is a set Φ of LA sentences such that (c) holds and (b) fails.

AbstractLet be an admissible set. A sentence of the form is a sentence if φ ∈ (φ is ∨ Φ where Φ is an -r.e. set of sentences from ). A sentence of the form is an , sentence if φ is a sentence. A class of structures is, for example, a ∀1 class if it is the class of models of a ∀1() sentence. Thus ∀1() is a class of classes of structures, and so forth.Let i, be the structure 〈i, <〉, for i > 0. Let Γ be a class of classes of structures. We say that a sequence J1, …, Ji,…, i < ω, of classes of structures is a Γ sequence if Ji ∈ Γ, i < ω, and there is I ∈ Γ such that ∈ Ji, if and only if [],i, where [,] is the disjoint sum. A class Γ of classes of structures has the easy uniformization property if for every Γ sequence J1,…, Ji,…, i < ω, there is a Γ sequence J′t, …, J′i, …, i < ω, such that J′i ⊆ Ji, i < ω, ⋃J′i = ⋃Ji, and the J′i are pairwise disjoint. The easy uniformization property is an effective version of Kuratowski's generalized reduction property that is closely related to Moschovakis's (topological) easy uniformization property.We show over countable structures that ∀1() and ∃2() have the easy uniformization property if is a countable admissible set with an infinite member, that and have the easy uniformization property if α is countable, admissible, and not weakly stable, and that and have the easy uniformization properly. The results proved are more general. The result for answers a question of Vaught(1980).

Abstract Control Barrier Functions (CBFs) have become popular for enforcing — via barrier constraints — the safe operation of nonlinear systems within an admissible set. For systems with input delay(s) of the same length, constrained control has been achieved by combining a CBF for the delay free system with a state predictor that compensates the single input delay. Recently, this approach was extended to multi input systems with input delays of different lengths. One limitation of this extension is that barrier constraint adherence can only be guaranteed after the longest input delay has been compensated and all input channels become available for control. In this paper, we consider the problem of enforcing constraint adherence when only a subset of input delays have been compensated. In particular, we propose a new barrier constraint formulation that ensures that when possible, a subset of input channels with shorter delays will be utilized for keeping the system in the admissible set even before longer input delays have been compensated. We include a numerical example to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Abstract Motivated by an application to resource sharing network modelling, we consider a problem of greedy maximization (i.e., maximization of the consecutive minima) of a vector in $${\mathbb {R}}^n$$ R n , with the admissible set indexed by the time parameter. The structure of the constraints depends on the underlying network topology. We investigate continuity and monotonicity of the resulting maximizers with respect to time. Our results have important consequences for fluid models of the corresponding networks which are optimal, in the appropriate sense, with respect to handling real-time transmission requests.

AbstractLet A be a standard transitive admissible set. Σ1-separation is the principle that whenever X and Y are disjoint Σ1A subsets of A then there is a ⊿1A subset S of A such that X ⊆ S and Y ∩ S = ∅.Theorem. If satisfies Σ-separation, then(1) If 〈Tn∣n < ω) ϵ A is a sequence of trees on ω each of which has at most finitely many infinite paths in A then the function n ↦ (set of infinite paths in A through Tn) is in A.(2) If A is not closed under hyperjump and α = OnA then A has in it a nonstandard model of V = L whose ordinal standard part is α.Theorem. Let α be any countable admissible ordinal greater than ω. Then there is a model of Σ1-separation whose height is α.

AbstractLet ℳ be a structure for a language ℒ on a set M of urelements. HYP(ℳ) is the least admissible set above ℳ. In §1 we show that pp(HYP(ℳ)) [= the collection of pure sets in HYP(ℳ)] is determined in a simple way by the ordinal α = ° (HYP(ℳ)) and the ℒxω theory of ℳ up to quantifier rank α. In §2 we consider the question of which pure countable admissible sets are of the form pp(HYP(ℳ)) for some ℳ and show that all sets Lα (α admissible) are of this form. Other positive and negative results on this question are obtained.
