The axiomatizable theory in L* to which logicians have devoted the most attention<br />

is P, which consists of the sentences deducible from the following axioms:<br />

(0) The finitely many axioms of Q<br />

(1) For each formula F(x)ofL*, the sentence<br />

(F(0)&∀x(F(x) → F(x ′ ))) →∀xF(x).<br />

It is to be understood that in (1) there may be other free variables u,v,...present,<br />

<strong>and</strong> that what is really meant by the displayed expression is the universal closure<br />

∀u∀v ···(F(0, u,v,...)&∀x(F(x, u,v,...) → F(x ′ , u,v,...))<br />

→∀xF(x, u,v,...)).<br />

The sentence in (1) is called the induction axiom for F(x).<br />

The axiomatizable theory in L** to which logicians have devoted the most attention<br />

is the theory P** consisting of the sentences deducible from the following axioms:<br />

(0) The finitely many axioms of Q<br />

(1*) ∀X(0 ∈ X & ∀x(x ∈ X → x ′ ∈ X) →∀xx∈ X)<br />

(2) ∀X∀Y (∀x(x ∈ X ↔ x ∈ Y ) → X = Y )<br />

(3) For each formula F(x)ofL*, the sentence<br />

∃X∀x(x∈X ↔ F(x)).<br />

It is to be understood that in (3) there may be other free variables u,v,... <strong>and</strong>/or<br />

U, V,... present, <strong>and</strong> that what is really meant by the displayed expression is the<br />

universal closure<br />

∀u∀v ···∀U∀V ···∃X∀x(x ∈ X ↔ F(x, u,v,...,U, V,...)).<br />

The sentence (1*) is called the induction axiom of P**, the extensionality axiom<br />

(2) has already been encountered, <strong>and</strong> the sentence (3) is called the comprehension<br />

axiom for F(x). We call P** axiomatic analysis.<br />

Since the set of theorems of (true) arithmetic is not arithmetical, the set of theorems<br />

of (true) analysis is not arithmetical, <strong>and</strong> a fortiori is not semirecursive. By contrast,<br />

the set of theorems of axiomatic analysis P** is, like the set of theorems of any<br />

axiomatizable theory, semirecursive. There must be many theorems of (true) analysis<br />

that are not theorems of axiomatic analysis, <strong>and</strong> indeed (since the Gödel theorems<br />

apply to P**), among these are the Gödel <strong>and</strong> Rosser sentences of P**, <strong>and</strong> the<br />

consistency sentence for P**.<br />

Note that the induction axiom (1) of P for F(x) follows immediately from the<br />

induction axiom (1) of P** together with the comprehension axiom (3) for F(x).<br />

Thus every theorem of P is a theorem of P**, <strong>and</strong> the lower part of any model of<br />

P** is a model of P. We say a model of P is exp<strong>and</strong>able to a model of P** if it is the<br />

lower part of a model of P**. Our second result is to establish the nonexistence of<br />

certain kinds of nonst<strong>and</strong>ard models of P**.<br />

25.10 Proposition<br />

Not every model of P can be exp<strong>and</strong>ed to a model of P**.
