A Topological Tennenbaum Theorem

arXiv:2311.13699

Abstract

We prove that in Borel models of arithmetic on an uncountable Polish space, neither addition nor multiplication is continuous. This is an analogue of Tennenbaum's Theorem for topological models of arithmetic. This answers a question of Enayat, Hamkins, and Wcisło.
