Proof: The result is trivial if \( \mathcal{T} \) is inconsistent, so we suppose \( \mathcal{T} \) consistent. Suppose that \( \mathcal{T} \) is complete, and that \( p \in \mathcal{L}\left( \mathcal{T}\right) \) is true in the model \( M \) . Since \( \sim p \) is false for \( M \), it is not a theorem of \( \mathcal{...

Proof: Let \( p \in \mathcal{L}\left( \mathcal{T}\right) \), and suppose that neither \( p \) nor \( \sim p \) is a theorem of \( \mathcal{T} = \left( {\mathcal{R}, A, C}\right) \) . Since \( \sim p \) is not a theorem, \( \mathcal{T} \) has a model (infinite) in which \( p \) is true, and so the theory \( {\mathcal{T}...

Proof: The cardinal \( \alpha \) is an ordinal, \( \alpha = \{ \beta \mid \beta \) ordinal, \( \beta < \alpha \} \) . Since \( \mathcal{F} \) is \( \alpha \) -incomplete, there exists \( \mathcal{G} \subseteq \mathcal{F} \) such that \( \left| \mathcal{G}\right| = \alpha \) and \( \cap \mathcal{G} \notin \mathcal{F} \)...

For each \( m \in M \), put \( {J}_{m} = \{ i \in I \mid f\left( i\right) = m\} \) . Then \( \left\{ {{J}_{m} \mid m \in M}\right\} \) is a partition of \( I \) ...

Proof: If \( S/\mathcal{F} \) is a model of \( \mathcal{T} \), then it is clearly a limit in \( \operatorname{Mod}\left( \mathcal{T}\right) \) of the given family. If \( L \) is a limit in \( \operatorname{Mod}\left( \mathcal{T}\right) \) of the family, then \( L \) is also a limit in \( \operatorname{Mod}\left( {\math...

If \( a \) is a finite real number, then \( \mu \left( a\right) \) contains exactly one standard real number. If \( {R}_{0} \) is the set of finite real numbers and \( {R}_{1} \) the set of infinitesimal real numbers, then \( {R}_{0} \) is a ring, \( {R}_{1} \) is an ideal of \( {R}_{0} \) and \( {R}_{0}/{R}_{1} \) is ...
Proof. If \( r, s \in \mu \left( a\right) \) and \( r, s \) are standard, then \( \left| {r - s}\right| \) is an infinitesimal standard real number.

Proof. Take any \( x \in * U.x \) is a finite real number, hence there is a unique \( r \in \mathbf{R} \) such that \( r \bumpeq x \) . If \( r < p \), then \( x = r + \left( {x - r}\right) < r + \left( {p - r}\right) = p \) , since \( x - r \) is infinitesimal and \( p - r \) is a standard positive real number. As \( ...

Theorem 6.18. Suppose the functions \( {s}_{n}\left( x\right) \) are continuous on \( U \), and converge uniformly on \( U \) to \( r\left( x\right) \) . Then \( r\left( x\right) \) is continuous on \( U \) .
Proof. Let \( a \in U \) . If \( x \in * U \) and \( x \bumpeq a \), and if \( n \) is infinite, then by Corollary 6.11 and Theorem 6.14,\n\n\[ * r\left( s\right) \bumpeq * {s}_{n}\left( x\right) \bumpeq * {s}_{n}\left( a\right) \bumpeq * r\left( a\right) ,\]\n\nshowing that \( r \) is continuous at \( a \) .

The problem is to determine for all integers \( n, r \), whether or not there is a computation of \( {M}_{n} \) beginning with the state \( {q}_{0}\operatorname{code}\left( r\right) \) . I.e., the problem is to determine whether or not an arbitrary Turing machine \( {M}_{n} \), fed with an arbitrary integer \( r \) , s...
We show that this stopping problem is recursively insoluble. Put \( {f}_{n} = {\Psi }_{{M}_{n}}^{\left( 1,1\right) } \) . The problem is to determine those \( \left( {n, r}\right) \) for which \( {f}_{n}\left( r\right) \) exists, and we show that there is no Turing machine which computes for each \( n \) whether or not...

Lemma 6.8. Let \( f \) be an initial state function (i.e., \( f\left( 0\right) = G\left( {q}_{0}\right) \) ) and let \( g\left( {n, r}\right) \) be the value at \( r \) of the state function after \( n \) steps of the computation by \( M \) starting at \( \left\lbrack f\right\rbrack \) . Then \( g \) is strongly defina...
Proof. \( f \) is strongly definable, and so we give a definition of \( g \) in terms of the definition of \( f \) . Put\n\n\[ \varphi \left( {x, y, z}\right) = \left( {\exists u}\right) \lbrack \left( {\forall v}\right) \left( {v \leq y + {2x} \Rightarrow \operatorname{seq}\left( {\operatorname{seq}\left( {u,0}\right)...

Theorem 6.9. Let \( \mathcal{T} \supseteq {\mathcal{N}}_{0} \) be a theory with \( \mathbf{N} \) as model. Then every partial recursive function is strongly definable in \( \mathcal{T} \) .
Proof. The formulae given above, together with a description of the input function in terms of the arguments of \( {\Psi }_{M}^{\left( k,\ell \right) } \), can be adapted to give a definition of \( {\Psi }_{M}^{\left( k,\ell \right) } \) . The reader is asked to supply the details.

Theorem 6.10. Let \( \mathcal{T} \supseteq {\mathcal{N}}_{0} \) be a theory which has \( \mathrm{N} \) as model. Then \( \mathcal{T} \) is undecidable. In particular, \( \mathcal{N} \) is undecidable.
Proof. A decision process for \( \mathcal{T} \) would provide a decision process for the family \( \{ \left( {\exists x}\right) \operatorname{comp}\left( {n, n, x}\right) \mid n \in \mathbb{N}\} \) .
Yes
Theorem 6.11. Let \( \mathcal{T} \supseteq {\mathcal{N}}_{0} \) be an effectively axiomatised theory with \( \mathbf{N} \) as model. Then \( \mathcal{T} \) is incomplete.
Proof. By Exercise 5.4 and Theorem 6.10. However, it is of interest to construct an element \( q \in \mathcal{L}\left( \mathcal{T}\right) \) such that neither \( q \) nor \( \sim q \) is a theorem of \( \mathcal{T} \) .

Theorem 7.5. Let \( r \) be a binary predicate symbol. Then \( \operatorname{Pred}\left( {V,\{ r\} }\right) \) is undecidable.
Before giving the formal proof, we note that the result implies that if \( \mathcal{R} \) contains at least one \( n \) -ary relation symbol with \( n \geq 2 \), then \( \operatorname{Pred}\left( {V,\mathcal{R}}\right) \) is undecidable. The theorem will be proved by constructing a function \( f : P\left( {V,\{ \rho \}...

Proof. By Theorem A.3, every unitary matrix has an orthonormal basis of eigenvectors, with eigenvalues having absolute value 1 . Thus, each \( U \in \mathrm{U}\left( n\right) \) can be written as \( {U}_{1}D{U}_{1}^{-1} \), where \( {U}_{1} \in \mathrm{U}\left( n\right) \) and \( D \) is diagonal with diagonal entries ...

Proof. If \( X \) is strictly upper triangular, it is easy to verify that \( {X}^{m} \) will be strictly upper triangular for all positive integers \( m \) .

Proof. The proof is similar to the proof of Theorem 3.20. Since \( \Phi \) is a continuous group homomorphism, \( \Phi \left( {e}^{tX}\right) \) will be a one-parameter subgroup of \( H \), for each \( X \in \mathfrak{g} \) .
