On reflection principles

نویسنده

چکیده

Gödel initiated the program of finding and justifying axioms that effect a significant reduction in incompleteness and he drew a fundamental distinction between intrinsic and extrinsic justifications. Reflection principles are the most promising candidates for new axioms that are intrinsically justified. Taking as our starting point Tait’s work on general reflection principles, we prove a series of limitative results concerning this approach. These results collectively show that general reflection principles are either weak (in that they are consistent relative to the Erdös cardinal κ(ω)) or inconsistent. The philosophical significance of these results is discussed.

Such principles justify the kind of cardinals needed for, inter alia , Woodin’s Ω-Logic.1 To say that the un...
