Supporting results for pointwise provable equality.
A zero-output probe separates external pointwise equality from equality of range partial identities. Every standard input may have its own PA proof of divergence, while the range at input zero tests an internal existential over all possible probe inputs. No passage from these individual proofs to a universal proof is assumed.
The zero-output probe for a Sigma-one predicate on possible witnesses.
Equations
- One or more equations did not get rendered due to their size.
Instances For
A probe has at most one output, whether or not its predicate holds.
A concrete program index supplied by the proved Sigma-one realization theorem.
Equations
Instances For
The equation holds for all inputs of every PA model, including nonstandard ones.
The internal assertion that the probe predicate has no witness.
Equations
Instances For
Separate numeralwise refutations suffice for external pointwise equality.
The range at zero records the internal existential over all probe inputs.
Equality of the probe's range with the empty graph at the one input zero already implies the internally quantified absence sentence.
A concrete pair of equivalent program indices whose range indices differ.
The selected range assignment has no operation on the pointwise quotient.
Equations
- One or more equations did not get rendered due to their size.
Instances For
A pair of equivalent indices with distinct range classes prevents descent.
No operation on the pointwise quotient induces the chosen range assignment.
Non-descent persists for every choice of PA-correct range indices.
