AbstractSimpson [6] showed that every countable model ${\cal M} \models PA$ has an expansion $\left( {{\cal M},X} \right) \models P{A^{\rm{*}}}$ that is pointwise definable. A natural question is whether, in general, one can obtain expansions of a nonprime model in which the definable elements coincide with those of the underlying model. Enayat [1] showed that this is impossible by proving that there is ${\cal M} \models PA$ such that for each undefinable class X of ${\cal M}$, the expansion $\left( {{\cal M},X} \right)$ is pointwise definable. We call models with this property Enayat models. In this article, we study Enayat models and show that a model of $PA$ is Enayat if it is countable, has no proper cofinal submodels and is a conservative extension of all of its elementary cuts. We then show that, for any countable linear order γ, if there is a model ${\cal M}$ such that $Lt\left( {\cal M} \right) \cong \gamma$, then there is an Enayat model ${\cal M}$ such that $Lt\left( {\cal M} \right) \cong \gamma$.

A hundred years ago, Frege proposed a logical definition of the natural numbers based on the following idea:He replaced this circular definition by the following one:He tried afterwards to found his theory over a notion of class satisfying a general comprehension principle:Russell quickly derived a contradiction from this principle (the famous Russell's paradox) but saved Frege's arithmetic with his theory of types based on the following comprehension principle:In 1979, talking at the Claude Bernard University in Lyon, I remarked that 3 types suffice to provide Frege's arithmetic, showing in fact that PA2 (second order Peano arithmetic) holds in TT3 + AI (theory of types 0, 1, 2 plus a suitable axiom of infinity). I asked whether TT3 + AI was a conservative extension of PA2. Pabion [3] gave a positive answer by a subtle use of the Fraenkel-Moskowski method. This result will be improved in the present paper, with a view to getting models of NF3 + AI in which Frege's arithmetic forms a model isomorphic to a given countable model of PA2.

Let L be a countable first-order language and L(Q) be obtained by adjoining an additional quantifier Q. Q is a generalization of the quantifier “there exists uncountably many x such that…” which was introduced by Mostowski in [4]. The logic of this latter quantifier was formalized by Keisler in [2]. Krivine and McAloon [3] considered quantifiers satisfying some but not all of Keisler's axioms. They called a formula φ(x) countable-like iffor every ψ. In Keisler's logic, φ(x) being countable-like is the same as ℳ⊨┐Qxφ(x). The main theorem of [3] states that any countable model ℳ of L[Q] has an elementary extension N, which preserves countable-like formulas but no others, such that the only sets definable in both N and M are those defined by formulas countable-like in M. Suppose C(x) in M is linearly ordered and noncountable-like but with countable-like proper segments. Then in N, C will have new elements greater than all “old” elements but no least new element — otherwise it will be definable in both models. The natural question is whether it is possible to use generalized quantifiers to extend models elementarily in such a way that a noncountable-like formula C will have a minimal new element. There are models and formulas for which it is not possible. For example let M be obtained from a minimal transitive model of ZFC by letting Qxφ(x) mean “there are arbitrarily large ordinals satisfying φ”.

AbstractLet $\left\langle {{W_n}:n \in \omega } \right\rangle$ be a canonical enumeration of recursively enumerable sets, and suppose T is a recursively enumerable extension of PA (Peano Arithmetic) in the same language. Woodin (2011) showed that there exists an index $e \in \omega$ (that depends on T) with the property that if${\cal M}$ is a countable model of T and for some${\cal M}$-finite set s, ${\cal M}$ satisfies ${W_e} \subseteq s$, then${\cal M}$ has an end extension${\cal N}$ that satisfies T + We = s.Here we generalize Woodin’s theorem to all recursively enumerable extensions T of the fragment ${{\rm{I}\rm{\Sigma }}_1}$ of PA, and remove the countability restriction on ${\cal M}$ when T extends PA. We also derive model-theoretic consequences of a classic fixed-point construction of Kripke (1962) and compare them with Woodin’s theorem.

In this paper we study the automorphism groups of countable arithmetically saturated models of Peano Arithmetic. The automorphism groups of such structures form a rich class of permutation groups. When studying the automorphism group of a model, one is interested to what extent a model is recoverable from its automorphism group. Kossak-Schmerl [12] show that if M is a countable, arithmetically saturated model of Peano Arithmetic, then Aut(M) codes SSy(M). Using that result they prove:Let M1. M2 be countable arithmetically saturated models of Peano Arithmetic such that Aut(M1) ≅ Aut(M2). Then SSy(M1) = SSy(M2).We show that if M is a countable arithmetically saturated of Peano Arithmetic, then Aut(M) can recognize if some maximal open subgroup is a stabilizer of a nonstandard element, which is smaller than any nonstandard definable element. That fact is used to show the main theorem:Let M1, M2be countable arithmetically saturated models of Peano Arithmetic such that Aut(M1) ≅ Aut(M2). Then for every n < ωHere RT2n is Infinite Ramsey's Theorem stating that every 2-coloring of [ω]n has an infinite homogeneous set. Theorem 0.2 shows that for models of a false arithmetic the converse of Kossak-Schmerl Theorem 0.1 is not true. Using the results of Reverse Mathematics we obtain the following corollary:There exist four countable arithmetically saturated models of Peano Arithmetic such that they have the same standard system but their automorphism groups are pairwise non-isomorphic.

AbstractWe continue the study of the theories of Baldwin–Shi hypergraphs from [5]. Restricting our attention to when the rank δ is rational valued, we show that each countable model of the theory of a given Baldwin–Shi hypergraph is isomorphic to a generic structure built from some suitable subclass of the original class used in the construction. We introduce a notion of dimension for a model and show that there is a an elementary chain $\left\{ {\mathfrak{M}_\beta :\beta \leqslant \omega } \right\}$ of countable models of the theory of a fixed Baldwin–Shi hypergraph with $\mathfrak{M}_\beta \preccurlyeq \mathfrak{M}_\gamma $ if and only if the dimension of $\mathfrak{M}_\beta $ is at most the dimension of $\mathfrak{M}_\gamma $ and that each countable model is isomorphic to some $\mathfrak{M}_\beta $. We also study the regular types that appear in these theories and show that the dimension of a model is determined by a particular regular type. Further, drawing on a large body of work, we use these structures to give an example of a pseudofinite, ω-stable theory with a nonlocally modular regular type, answering a question of Pillay in [11].

AbstractLet T and U be any consistent theories of arithmetic. If T is computably enumerable, then the provability predicate $P{r_\tau }\left( x \right)$ of T is naturally obtained from each ${{\rm{\Sigma }}_1}$ definition $\tau \left( v \right)$ of T. The provability logic $P{L_\tau }\left( U \right)$ of τ relative to U is the set of all modal formulas which are provable in U under all arithmetical interpretations where □ is interpreted by $P{r_\tau }\left( x \right)$. It was proved by Beklemishev based on the previous studies by Artemov, Visser, and Japaridze that every $P{L_\tau }\left( U \right)$ coincides with one of the logics $G{L_\alpha }$, ${D_\beta }$, ${S_\beta }$, and $GL_\beta ^ -$, where α and β are subsets of ω and β is cofinite.We prove that if U is a computably enumerable consistent extension of Peano Arithmetic and L is one of $G{L_\alpha }$, ${D_\beta }$, ${S_\beta }$, and $GL_\beta ^ -$, where α is computably enumerable and β is cofinite, then there exists a ${{\rm{\Sigma }}_1}$ definition $\tau \left( v \right)$ of some extension of $I{{\rm{\Sigma }}_1}$ such that $P{L_\tau }\left( U \right)$ is exactly L.

In 1951, Horn obtained a sufficient condition for an arithmetical class to be closed under direct product. A natural question which arose was whether Horn's condition is also necessary. We obtain a negative answer to that question.We shall discuss relational systems of the formwhere A and R are non-empty sets; each element of R is an ordered triple 〈a, b, c〉, with a, b, c ∈ A.1 If the triple 〈a, b, c〉 belongs to the relation R, we write R(a, b, c); if 〈a, b, c〉 ∉ R, we write (a, b, c). If x0, x1 and x2 are variables, then R(x0, x1, x2) and x0 = x1 are predicates. The expressions (x0, x1, x2) and x0 ≠ x1 will be referred to as negations of predicates.We speak of α1, …, αn as terms of the disjunction α1 ∨ … ∨ αn and as factors of the conjunction α1 ∧ … ∧ αn. A sentence (open, closed or neither) of the formwhere each Qi (if there be any) is either the universal or the existential quantifier and each αi, l is either a predicate or a negation of a predicate, is said to be in prenex disjunctive normal form.

This note is written in reply to López-Escobar's paper [L-E] where a “sequence” of intermediate propositional systems NLCn (n ≥ 1) and corresponding implicative propositional systems NLICn (n ≥ 1) is given. We will show that the “sequence” NLCn contains three different systems only. These are the classical propositional calculus NLC1, Dummett's system NLC2 and the system NLC3. Accordingly (see [C], [Hs2], [Hs3], [B 1], [B2], [Hs4], [L-E]), the problem posed in the paper [L-E] can be formulated as follows: is NLC3a conservative extension of NLIC3? Having in mind investigations of intermediate propositional calculi that give more general results of this type (see V. I. Homič [H1], [H2], C. G. McKay [Mc], T. Hosoi [Hs 1]), in this note, using a result of Homič (Theorem 2, [H1]), we will give a positive solution to this problem.NLICnand NLCn. If X and Y are propositional logical systems, by X ⊆ Y we mean that the set of all provable formulas of X is included in that of Y. And X = Y means that X ⊆ Y and Y ⊆ X. A(P1/B1, …, Pn/Bn) is the formula (or the sequent) obtained from the formula (or the sequent) A by substituting simultaneously B1, …, Bn for the distinct propositional variables P1, …, Pn in A.Let Cn(n ≥ 1) be the string of the following sequents:Having in mind that the calculi of sequents can be understood as meta-calculi for the deducibility relation in the corresponding systems of natural deduction (see [P]), the systems of natural deductions NLCn and NLICn (n ≥ 1), introduced in [L-E], can be identified with the calculi of sequents obtained by adding the sequents Cn as axioms to a sequential formulation of the Heyting propositional calculus and to a system of positive implication, respectively (see [C], [Ch], [K], [P]).

This paper contains an example of a decidable theory which has1) only a countable number of countable models (up to isomorphism);2) a decidable saturated model; and3) a countable homogeneous model that is not decidable.By the results in [1] and [2], this can happen if and only if the set of types realized by the homogeneous model (the type spectrum of the model) is not .If Γ and Σ are types of a theory T, define Γ ◁ Σ to mean that any model of T realizing Γ must realize Σ. In [3] a decidable theory is constructed that has only countably many countable models, only recursive types, but whose countable saturated model is not decidable. This is easy to do if the restriction on the number of countable models is lifted; the difficulty arises because the set of types must be recursively complex, and yet sufficiently related to control the number of countable models. In [3] the desired theory T is such thatis a linear order with order type ω*. Also, the set of complete types of T is not . The last feature ensures that the countable saturated model is not decidable; the first feature allows the number of countable models to be controlled.
