We have discovered a MAGNIFICENT version of our Lead Propositions
which we prove using Con(SRP).

I have previously only claimed PERFECTLY MATHEMATICALLY NATURAL
statements which are provably equivalent to Con(SRP).

HOWEVER, we have come to no opinion as to whether this MAGNIFICENCE
can be proved in ZFC, or whether it is provably equivalent to
Con(SRP).

So this new magnificent version is going to be our new Lead
Proposition - as the lead into the versions that are merely perfectly
mathematical natural, and for which we KNOW are provably equivalent to
Con(SRP).

Thus the choice of this new magnificent Proposition drives the
narrative for all of the previous Lead Propositions. This is why we
have slightly modified them below. See Theorem 2.3.

In fact, the proof that we give of the MAGNIFICENT ONE actually
provides some specific natural information that we KNOW is independent
of ZFC.

1. MAXIMAL EMBEDDED SQUARES, CUBES, CLIQUES IN Q,Q|<=n

In this section we use everywhere defined embeddings (referred to embeddings).

MAXIMALEMBEDDED SQUARES (Q). Every order invariant subset of Q^k has a
maximal square with an embedding fixing exactly the negative
rationals.

MAXIMAL EMBEDDED CUBES (Q). Every order invariant subset of Q^k has a
maximal r-cube with an embedding fixing exactly the negative
rationals.

MAXIMAL EMBEDDED CLIQUES (Q). Every order invariant graph on Q^k has a
maximal clique with an embedding fixing exactly the negative
rationals.

Note that these Propositions do not use right endpoints, partial
embeddings, or special maps. Here the embeddings are everywhere
defined.

It is also natural to use the Q^k||<=n. Since our statements are
purely order theoretic, the choice of positive integer n is of no
consequence.

Here Q^k|<=n = (Q intersect (-infinity,n])^k. Order invariant subsets
of Q^k|<=n are subsets V of Q^k|<=n where for order equivalent x,y in
Q^k|<=n, x in V iff y in V.

MAXIMALEMBEDDED SQUARES (Q|<=n). Every order invariant subset of
Q^k|<=n has a maximal square with an embedding fixing exactly the
negative rationals.

MAXIMAL EMBEDDED CUBES (Q|<=n). Every order invariant subset of
Q^k|<=n has a maximal r-cube with an embedding fixing exactly the
negative rationals.

MAXIMAL EMBEDDED CLIQUES (Q|<=n). Every order invariant graph on
Q^k|<=n has a maximal clique with an embedding fixing exactly the
negative rationals.

THEOREM 1.1. All six are implicitly Pi01 via the Goedel Completeness Theorem.

THEROEM 1.2. RCA_0 proves
i. Maximal Embedded Squares (Q) if and only if Maximal Embedded Cliques (Q).
ii. Maximal Embedded Squares (Q|<=n) if and only if Maximal Embedded
Cliques (Q|<=n).
iii. Maximal Embedded Squares (Q|<=n) if and only if Maximal Embedded
Cliques (Q|<=n).
iv. Maximal Embedded Cubes (Q|<=n) implies Maximal Embedded Cubes (Q).
v. Maximal Embedded Squares (Q|<=n) implies Maximal Embedded Squares (Q).

THEOREM  1.3. All six are provable in SRP+. In fact, they are provable
in WKL_0 + Con(SRP). The same holds if we additionally require that
the embedding is +1 on N.

We do not know whether any or all of these six are provable in ZFC.

2. MAXIMAL NATURALLY EMBEDDED SQUARES, CUBES, CLIQUES IN Q,Q|<=n

In the proof of the six Propositions of section 1, we did not
construct a natural maximal object or a natural embedding. We do not
know if that can be done.

However, our proof of Maximal Embedded Cubes (Q) does construct a very
natural embedding that is partially defined. We refer to this as a
partial embedding. Specially, that proof establishes all of the nine
Propositions presented in this section. We know that the fourth,
fifth, and sixth are independent of ZFC; see Theorem 2.3.

MAXIMAL NATURALLY EMBEDDED SQUARES (Q). Every order invariant subset
of Q^k has a maximal square partially embedded by p if p < 0; p+1 if p
in N.

MAXIMAL NATURALLY EMBEDDED CUBES (Q). Every order invariant subset of
Q^k has a maximal r-cube partially embedded by p if p < 0; p+1 if p in
N.

MAXIMAL NATURALLY EMBEDDED CLIQUES (Q). Every order invariant graph on
Q^k has a maximal clique partially embedded by p if p < 0; p+1 if p in
N.

MAXIMAL NATURALLY EMBEDDED SQUARES (Q|<=n). Every order invariant
subset of Q^k|<=n has a maximal square partially embedded by p if p <
0; p+1 if p = 0,...,n-1.

MAXIMAL NATURALLY EMBEDDED CUBES (Q|<=n). Every order invariant subset
of Q^k|<=n has a maximal r-cube partially embedded by p if p < 0; p+1
if p = 0,...,n-1.

MAXIMAL NATURALLY EMBEDDED CLIQUES (Q|<=n). Every order invariant
graph on Q^k|<=n has a maximal clique partially embedded by p if p <
0; p+1 if p = 0,...,n-1.

THEOREM 2.1. The last three are implicitly Pi01 via the Goedel
Completeness Theorem.

THEOREM  2.2. All six are provable in SRP+. In fact, they are provable
in WKL_0 + Con(SRP).

THEOREM 2.3. the last three are provably equivalent to Con(SRP) over WKL_0.

We do not know if any or all of the first three are provable in ZFC.

We now consider the following weakened forms of the first three.

MAXIMAL NATURALLY EMBEDDED SQUARES (Q,limited). Every order invariant
subset of Q^k has a maximal square partially embedded by p if p < 0;
p+1 if p = 0,...,n-1.

MAXIMAL NATURALLY EMBEDDED CUBES (Q,limited). Every order invariant
subset of Q^k has a maximal r-cube partially embedded by p if p < 0;
p+1 if p = 0,...,n-1.

MAXIMAL NATURALLY EMBEDDED CLIQUES (Q,limited). Every order invariant
graph on Q^k has a maximal clique partially embedded by p if p < 0;
p+1 if p = 0,...,n-1.

THEOREM 2.4. These three are provable in Z = Zermelo set theory. In
fact, in WKL_0 + Con(RTT).

Here RTT is Russell's theory of types in modern form.

There is a straightforward adaption of Theorem 1.2 for this section.
