Due Tuesday February 5 at the beginning of lecture.
116- Lecture 7
January 29, 2008We showed that recursive functions and recursive sets are -representable in
. We also defined Gödel numberings and exhibited an example of one. This allowed us to define when a theory is recursive. Finally, we proved Gödel’s diagonal lemma.
116b- Lecture 6
January 24, 2008We proved that a set is recursive iff it is -definable.
We showed some elementary properties of the theory , defined end-extensions, and verified that
is
-complete.
We also defined what it means for a function, or a set, to be represented in a theory.
116b- Homework 2
January 22, 2008Due Tuesday January 29 at the beginning of lecture.
Update: There is a typo in problem 2, it must be .
116b- Lecture 5
January 22, 2008We showed that a function is in iff it has a
-graph. It follows that a set is r.e. iff it is
-definable.
116b- Lecture 4
January 18, 2008We defined the notion of r.e. sets and proved Gödel’s lemma stating that there is a coding of finite sequences by numbers.
116b- Lecture 3
January 15, 2008We defined Ackermann’s function and showed it is not primitive recursive. We showed that -formulas have a primitive recursive characteristic function, and defined the class
of recursive functions.
116b- Lecture 2
January 15, 2008We defined the class of Primitive Recursive functions and showed several examples of functions that belong to this class.
116b- Lecture 1
January 15, 2008We introduced the course, stated the incompleteness theorems, defined (Robinson Arithmetic),
(Peano or first-order Arithmetic), and
(the subsystem of second-order Arithmetic given by the arithmetic comprehension axiom).
