846: Brand New Tangible Incompleteness/4

Wed Apr 1 00:32:02 EDT 2020

IS THIS FINALLY THE PINNACLE OF THE 53-YEAR OLD TANGIBLE
INCOMPLETENESS PROJECT IN TERMS OF RAW COMBINATORIAL SIMPLICITY?
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

I just put up a revised version of #110 in my Downloadable Manuscripts
page https://u.osu.edu/friedman.8/foundational-adventures/downloadable-manuscripts/

This is considerably more polished than 843, 844, 845 here.

The lead statement is

INVARIANT MAXIMAL SQUARES. Every order invariant subset of every
Q[-n,n]^k has a complete USH/N invariant maximal square.

We use the weak form of maximality called N maximality discussed here,
but defined better in #110
https://u.osu.edu/friedman.8/foundational-adventures/downloadable-manuscripts/

INVARIANT N MAXIMAL SQUARES. Every order invariant subset of every
Q[-n,n]^k has a complete USH/N invariant finite N maximal square.

This is explicitly finite, in fact explicitly Pi02. It becomes
explicitly Pi01 via an a priori exponential upper bound on the size of
the finite N maximal square.

Then this is naturally taken into the integers using >>.

INTEGER INVARIANT MAXIMAL SQUARES/>>. Let t >> k. Every order
invariant subset of every [-kt,kt]^k has a completely USH/tN invariant
tN maximal square.

This is explicitly Pi03 because of the >>. This is trivially fixed to:

INTEGER INVARIANT MAXIMAL SQUARES. Let t > (8k)!. Every order
invariant subset of every [-kt,kt]^k has a completely USH/tN invariant
tN maximal square.

And the above is explicitly Pi01.

All of these statements are provably equivalent to Con(SRP) over WKL0.

AGENDA:

1. Write exactly #110 up with complete proofs of everything. Show
Q[-3,3]^3 is enuf.
2. Revise and put on website my version for Gifted High School.
3. Higher Cardinals going to n-Huge. Greatly improve on earlier work.
4. Incorporate more mathematical structure. The present is incredibly
elemental.
