Thoralf Skolem

View through CrossRef
Abstract This item is a handwritten letter, dated 1 November 1931, addressed to a “Sehr geehrter Herr Professor.” From the contents of the letter, in particular from the reference to “Hirer Arbeit ‘Uber einige Satzfunkti- onen in der Arithmetik’ ”, it is clear that the “Herr Professor” is Thoralf Skolem and that the paper is Skolem 1931. The actual missive comes from a private source, and it is not known whether it was ever received by Skolem. The letter is a second and private response to Skolem 1931. The public response was Gödel 1932d, which is a very careful and strictly “mathematical” review of that article. In this private response, Gödel offers hints and suggestions related to Skolem’s views on the issue of set- theoretic relativism. These suggestions are based on the results of his incompleteness paper 1931, which had appeared the previous January.
