 Self-verifying theories

Self-verifying theories are a concept in the philosophy of science and mathematics that refer to theories or systems that possess inherent mechanisms for confirming their own correctness or validity. This idea can be particularly relevant in the context of formal systems and mathematical logic. In a self-verifying theory, the axioms, rules of inference, and theorems are structured in such a way that the system can demonstrate its own consistency and truth without requiring external validation.
