Forcing in bounded arithmetic and set theory: analogies and differences
Radek Honzik, Ondrej Ježil, Mykyta Narusevych
We provide a modern overview of several forcing methods in bounded arithmetic and compare them with forcing in set theory. We specifically discuss the countable forcing framework o…
Minimization Principle for Polynomial-Time Predicates and Forcing in Bounded Arithmetic
Mykyta Narusevych
We formulate a factorization hypothesis for linear orders definable by oracle polynomial-time machines. Assuming this hypothesis, we provide an approach to constructing a nonstanda…
An independence of the MIN principle from the PHP principle
Mykyta Narusevych
The minimization principle studied in bounded arithmetic says that a strict linear ordering on any finite interval has t…
Ajtai's theorem for and pebble games with backtracking
Eitetsu Ken, Mykyta Narusevych
We introduce a pebble game extended by backtracking options for one of the two players (called Prover) and reduce the provability of the pigeonhole principle for a generic predicat…
Models of Bounded Arithmetic and variants of Pigeonhole Principle
Mykyta Narusevych
We give elementary proof that theory augmented by the weak pigeonhole principle for all -definable relations does not prove the bijective pigeonhole principle…
