PROVABILITY LOGIC IN THE GENTZEN FORMULATION OF ARITHMETIC
View through CrossRef
AbstractIn this paper are studied the properties of the proofs in PRA of provability logic sentences, i.e. of formulas which are Boolean combinations of formulas of the form PIPRA(h), where h is the Gödel‐number of a sentence in PRA. The main result is a Normal Form Theorem on the proof‐trees of provability logic sequents, which states that it is possible to split the proof into an arithmetical part, which contains only atomic formulas and has an essentially intuitionistic character, and into a logical part, which is merely instrumental. Moreover, the induction rules which occur in the arithmetical part are implicit. Some applications of the Normal Form Theorem are shown in order to obtain some syntactical results on the PRA‐completeness of modal logic. In particular a completeness theorem for Boolean combinations of modalities is given.

AbstractIn this paper are studied the properties of the proofs in PRA of provability logic sentences, i.
e.
of formulas which are Boolean combinations of formulas of the form PIPRA(h), where h is the Gödel‐number of a sentence in PRA.
The main result is a Normal Form Theorem on the proof‐trees of provability logic sequents, which states that it is possible to split the proof into an arithmetical part, which contains only atomic formulas and has an essentially intuitionistic character, and into a logical part, which is merely instrumental.
Moreover, the induction rules which occur in the arithmetical part are implicit.
Some applications of the Normal Form Theorem are shown in order to obtain some syntactical results on the PRA‐completeness of modal logic.
In particular a completeness theorem for Boolean combinations of modalities is given.
