Abstract

Our previous research has studied the semantic tableaux deductive methodology, of Fitting and Smullyan, and observed that it permits boundary-case exceptions to the Second Incompleteness Theorem, when multiplication is viewed as a 3-way relation (rather than as a total function). It is known that tableaux methodologies do prove a schema of theorems, verifying all instances of the Law of the Excluded Middle. But yet we show that if one promotes this schema of theorems into formalized logical axioms, then the meaning of the pronoun “I” in our self-referencing engine changes, and our partial evasions of the Second Incompleteness Theorem come to a complete halt.

Some quotes from Sacks’s YouTube talk [38] are that Gödel “did not think” the objectives of Hilbert’s Consistency Program “were erased” by the Incompleteness Theorem, and Gödel believed (according to Sacks) it left Hilbert’s program “very much alive and even more interesting than it initially was”.
 
2
This is because all the common apparatuses satisfy the requirement of Gödel’s Completeness Theorem.
 
3
The Example 1 had provided three examples of Hilbert-Frege style deduction operators, called \(D_E\), \(D_H\) and \(D_M\). It explained how these deductive operators differ from a tableaux-style deductive apparatus by containing a modus ponens rule.
 
4
The exact meaning of this implication is subtle. This is because Peano Arithmetic (PA) cannot know whether \(\beta \) is consistent when \( \beta = PA\). Thus, unlike the quite different formalism of \(\text {IS}_{ Tab-1}(PA)~\), the system of PA shall linger in a state of self-doubt, about whether both PA and \(\text {IS}_{ Tab-1}(PA)~\) are consistent.
 
5
\(\text {IS}_{Xtab}(\beta )\) actually satisfies a requirement stronger than Item I because it recognizes addition as total.
 
6
The point is that proofs are compressed when theorems are transformed into logical axioms, and such compressions can produce diagonalizing contradictions under some Type-A logics using “I am consistent” axioms.
 
7
Actually, we will only need the “Locally 1-Closure” property to prove that \(\text {IS}_{Xtab}(\beta )\). cannot possibly be self-justifying.
