NOTE. In the previous #3, the table of contents did not correspond
exactly to the contents. Below see a fixed TOC, with the section 2.1.2
title modified.

Here we add material to 2.1.2 and add sections 2.1.4 and 2.2.3.  The
new material concerns the use of other N shifts - other than our N
tail shift.

NOTE: The plan is to fully incorporate the previous

into the present development here. This 8/18 paper is based on a very
weak notion of stability. As indicated previously, we now prefer to
use the strongest notions of stability. We postpone working out the
technical details in the very weak notions of stability in favor of
working out the details with the strongest ones. The strongest ones
have the advantage in that they make it rather promising to show that
incompleteness from ZFC occurs at very low dimension, say 3 or 4.

This 8/18 paper does not touch Logical Classes which we are about to
take up here planned not for the present #4 but for #5.

This 8/18 paper is very detailed and keeps track of a lot of
parameters in the statements that we are not dealing with here. In the
combined paper we will continue to operate at that level of detail.
However, we will work hard to make things very readable. For example,
we will tart off by presenting and discussing versions where we do not
keep track of any parameters (like we are doing here). We did some of
that already in 8/18 but we can do better along these lines.

2.1.2. N (SUB)TAIL, N (SUB)TAIL SHIFT, N TAIL-RELATED

Continued from #3. It is better to write N tail shift-related on Q^k
rather than N tail shift related on Q^k, for that important binary
relation on Q^k, to avoid confusion.

DEFINITION 2.1.2.4. An N subtail of x in Q^k is a set A of coordinates
of x such that if x_j >= x_i in A then x_j in A intersect N. Subtails
are held in place. An N subtail shift on Q^k is an h:Q^k into Q^k such
that each h(x) results in adding 1 to some N subtail of x.

The following relates the equivalence relation N tail shift-related to shifting.

THEOREM 2.1.2.1. N tail shift-related on Q^k is the least equivalence
relation on Q^k that contains the graph of all N subtail shifts on
Q^k.

2.1.4. EMULATION USABILITY OF SHIFTS

DEFINITION 2.1.4.1. A shift on Q^k is an h:Q^k into Q^k such that each
f(x) is obtained by adding 1 from zero to all coordinates of x. x,y in
Q^k are N order equivalent if and only if x,y are order equivalent and
for all i <= k, x_i in N iff y_i in N. A containedin Q^k is N order
invariant if and only if for all N order equivalent x,y in Q^k, x in A
iff y in A. h:Q^k into Q^k is a uniform shift if and only if h is a
shift on Q^k such that for all N order equivalent x,y in Q^k, h(x)-x =
h(y)-y.

DEFINITION 2.1.4.2. A shift h:Q^k into Q^k is emulation usable if and
only if the following holds. Every finite E containedin Q[-n,n]^k has
a completely h invariant maximal emulator.

PROPOSITION 2.1.4.1. Let h be a uniform shift on Q^k. The following
are equivalent.
i. h is emulation usable.
ii. h is an N subtail shift.
iii. h is contained in N tail-related on Q^k.
Furthermore, N tail-related on Q^k is the union of all emulation
usable uniform shifts on N^k.

THEOREM 2.1.4.2. Proposition 2.1.4.1 (both parts) is provably
equivalent to Con(SRP) over WKL_0.

2..2.3. CLIQUE USABILITY OF SHIFTS

DEFINITION 2.2.3.1. h:Q^k into Q^k is clique usable if and only if the
following holds. Every order invariant graph on Q[-n,n]^k has a
completely  h invariant maximal clique.

PROPOSITION 2.2.3.1. Let h be a uniform shift on Q^k. The following
are equivalent.
i. h is clique usable.
ii. h is an N subtail shift.
iii. h is contained in N tail-related on Q^k.
Furthermore, N tail-related on Q^k is the union of all clique usable
uniform shifts on N^k.

THEOREM 2.2.3.2. Proposition 2.2.3.1 (both parts) is provably
equivalent to Con(SRP) over WKL_0.
