Predicative Arithmetic. (MN-32) Paperback / softback
by Edward Nelson
Part of the Princeton Legacy Library series
Paperback / softback
Description
This book develops arithmetic without the induction principle, working in theories that are interpretable in Raphael Robinson's theory Q.
Certain inductive formulas, the bounded ones, are interpretable in Q.
A mathematically strong, but logically very weak, predicative arithmetic is constructed. Originally published in 1986. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions.
The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
