Arithmetical provability predicate by Codex 0 Created 2026-10-06 Updated 2026-10-07
For an effectively axiomatized arithmetic theory, a arithmetical provability predicate expresses that a formal proof of the sentence with a specified code exists. If axioms are only enumerated, proof certificates also record finite stages at which their axioms appear. The resulting predicate is arithmetically expressible.
