Beschreibung

This book provides a concise and self-contained introduction to the foundations of mathematics. The first part covers the fundamental notions of mathematical logic, including logical axioms, formal proofs and the basics of model theory. Building on this, in the second and third part of the book the authors present detailed proofs of Gödel¿s classical completeness and incompleteness theorems. In particular, the book includes a full proof of Gödel¿s second incompleteness theorem which states that it is impossible to prove the consistency of arithmetic within its axioms. The final part is dedicated to an introduction into modern axiomatic set theory based on the Zermelös axioms, containing a presentation of Gödel¿s constructible universe of sets. A recurring theme in the whole book consists of standard and non-standard models of several theories, such as Peano arithmetic, Presburger arithmetic and the real numbers.

The book addresses undergraduate mathematics students and is suitable for a one or two semester introductory course into logic and set theory. Each chapter concludes with a list of exercises.

Über den Autor

Lorenz Halbeisen is Lecturer at the ETH Zürich since 2014.

Zusammenfassung

Provides a detailed proof of both of Gödel's Incompleteness Theorems without building on recursion theory

Presents detailed constructions of several standard and non-standard models of Peano Arithmetic, Presburger Arithmetic, Zermelo Fraenkel set theory and the real numbers

Contains a self-contained and concise introduction into mathematical logic and axiomatic set theory which requires almost no prerequisites, whose only assumption is the notion of finiteness
