An Outline of Gödel's Incompleteness Theorem and its Proof. (From Rucker, Infinity and the Mind
  • Someone introduces Gödel to a UTM, a machine that is supposed to be a Universal Truth Machine, capable of correctly answering any question at all. Gödel asks for the program and the circuit design of the UTM. The program may be complicated, but it can only be finitely long. Call the program P(UTM) for Program of the Universal Truth Machine. Smiling a little, Gödel writes out the following sentence: "The machine constructed on the basis of the program P(UTM) will never say that this sentence is true." Call this sentence G for Gödel. Note that G is equivalent to: "UTM will never say G is true." Now Gödel laughs his high laugh and asks UTM whether G is true or not. If UTM says G is true, then "UTM will never say G is true" is false. If "UTM will never say G is true" is false, then G is false (since G = "UTM will never say G is true"). So if UTM says G is true, then G is in fact false, and UTM has made a false statement. So UTM will never say that G is true, since UTM makes only true statements. We have established that UTM will never say G is true. So "UTM will never say G is true" is in fact a true statement. So G is true (since G = "UTM will never say G is true").

    anyhow, godel does not say which are the things that can be prooven or wich are those that cannot. so, i have a hard time understanding how can you get from godels theorem to a conclusion that this or that falls into the category of things that cannot be prooved, or can be.
    all i'm sayn is that untill you don't have a complete understanding of the things that cannot be proven, or untill you have a proof of them being unproven under math laws, you cannot use godel theorem. (this is just my momentery understanding of godels theorem, love to get a new perspective).

    The Undecidability of Arithmetic, Goedel's Incompleteness Theorem, and the class of Arithmetical Languages
    Arithmetic is the first order logic with constants and 1, binary operators + and x and a binary predicate =. One normally writes (t+u) instead of +(t,u) and tu instead x(t,u). Thus the multiplication symbol x is oppressed, and brackets are left out when no confusion arises, assuming that x binds stronger than +. An arithmetical term is known as a (positive) polynomial . Arithmetic is interpreted in terms of the natural numbers, and the meaning of 0, 1, +, x and = is well known. Every formula is either true or false (if there are free variables a formula is considered equivalent to its universal closure). Theorem: It is undecidable whether an arithmetical formula is true. Proof: Given a Turing machine M, a configuration of M is given by
  • a state of M,
  • the string on M's tape to the left of the position of the head of M (call it the left-string),
  • and the string on M's tape including the square where the head is, and extending to the right of it (the right-string).
  • These 3 ingredients will be represented as natural numbers:
  • The states of M will be numbered by an initial segment of the natural numbers. The initial state will get number and the accepting state number 1.

    Mathematician
    He turned the lens of mathematics on itself and hit upon his famous "incompleteness theorem"driving a stake through the heart of formalism BY DOUGLAS HOFSTADTER The beauty of this mechanistic vision of mathematics was that it eliminated all need for thought or judgment. As long as the axioms were true statements and as long as the rules of inference were truth preserving, mathematics could not be derailed; falsehoods simply could never creep in. Truth was an automatic hereditary property of theoremhood. The set of symbols in which statements in formal systems were written generally included, for the sake of clarity, standard numerals, plus signs, parentheses and so forth, but they were not a necessary feature; statements could equally well be built out of icons representing plums, bananas, apples and oranges, or any utterly arbitrary set of chicken scratches, as long as a given chicken scratch always turned up in the proper places and only in such proper places. Mathematical statements in such systems were, it then became apparent, merely precisely structured patterns made up of arbitrary symbols. Page 2 Page 3

We argue that there is no such formula. Introduction G del’s First Incompleteness Theorem Theorem VI of G del’s seminal 1931 paper ( ), commonly referred to as “G del’s First Incompleteness Theorem”, essentially asserts: Meta-theorem 1 : Every omega-consistent formal system P of Arithmetic contains a proposition "[( A x R x p )]” such that both "[( A x R x p )]” and "[~( A x R x p )]” are not P -provable. In an earlier paper ( ) we argue, however, that a constructive interpretation of G del’s reasoning establishes that any formal system of Arithmetic is omega-inconsistent. It follows from this that G del’s Theorem VI holds vacuously. G del’s Second Incompleteness Theorem In this paper, we now argue that Theorem XI of G del’s paper ( ), commonly referred to as “G

    Goal of the course
    This course is intended for students who already had an introductory courses of logic and of recursion theory. The following knowledge is assumed: syntax and semantics of classical propositional and predicate logic (with equality), Hilbert-style logical calculus, the deduction theorem. Completeness and compactness theorems. Recursive and recursively enumerable sets. Post's theorem, m-reducibility, m-completeness.

    Theories, Models, Compactness, Completeness
    This part roughly follows J. Barwise's introduction to the Handbook of Mathematical Logic (chapter A1, pp. 5-46). Examples requiring deeper knowledge of algebra (fields, ideals) are omitted. Other examples are added: natural numbers with zero and the successor function allow the quantifier elimination. The theory of dense linear ordering without end elements is another example of a complete theory. The following topics are discussed: language (as a list of non-logical symbols), axioms, semantical consequence, formal proof, contradictory and consistent theories, complete and incomplete theories, decidable and undecidable theories, theory of a structure. Some consequences of the compactness theorem: impossibility of finite axiomatization of some theories, non-axiomatizability of some classes of structures.

    Godel's First incompleteness theorem. So Godel's First IncompletenessTheorem reveals a gap between the notions of proof and truth.
    http://dubinserver.colorado.edu/prj/cca/godel.html
    Explanation of Godel's Theorems : by Harry Deutsch at Illinois State University
    Godel's First Incompleteness Theorem Godel's First Incompleteness Theorem states that in any "formal system" F
    sufficient to formalize a modest portion of the arithmetic of the integers and
    which is assumed to be sound there is an arithmetical sentence that is true but
    not provable in the system F. For present purposes "formalize" may be taken to mean just "make completely
    precise." The word "true" means "holds in the domain of integers when the
    arithmetical operations (addition, multiplication, etc) behave as usual." To say
    that a statement S of F is provable, may, for present purposes, be taken to mean
    that there is a step by step procedure leading from definitions and first principles
    (axioms) via the rules of logic to the statement S. A formal system F is sound if
    whatever is provable in F is true in the intended domain. So Godel's First Incompleteness Theorem reveals a gap between the notions of proof and truth. But the highest standard of truth in mathematics is proof! Hence, Godel's First Incompleteness Theorem shows that there are mathematical truths that cannot attain this highest standard of truth!

This experiment demonstrates that abstraction can make proofs easier to comprehend and to verify mechanically. To support such proof checking, we have developed a formal theory of abstraction and added facilities for using abstraction to the GETFOL proof checking system. Download: POSTSCRIPT COPY

    The incompleteness theorems
    Shankar, 1986 ] has demonstrated this using the Boyer-Moore prover. Among the unprovable true sentences is the statement of the theory's own consistency. We can interpret this as saying that the theory lacks self-confidence. Turing, in his PhD thesis, studied what happens if we add to a theory T the statement consis T ) asserting that T is consistent, getting a stronger theory T '. While the new theory has consis T ) as a theorem, it doesn't have consis T ') as a theoremprovided it is consistent. The process can be iterated, and the union of all these theories is . Indeed the process can again be iterated, as Turing showed, to any constructive ordinal number.
