If every occurrence of p in X(p) lies under a box, Gödel-Löb logic has a formula F without p, using only the other letters of X, satisfying the displayed equivalence. Write X(p)=H(□C1​(p),…,□Cm​(p)) using the outermost boxes that contain p, so H has no p. Solve qi​↔□Ci​(H(q1​,…,qm​)) by simultaneous boxed fixed-point elimination in GL. If the solutions are Qi​, then F=H(Q1​,…,Qm​) works by replacement of provably equivalent formulas.
