760:. A good way to understand these things is like moving boxes. If you have a map (or a checkerboard or whatever), and some rules you can move boxes to some places and not others. The places the rules allow you to move a box is a theorem. Perhaps more appropriate to the analogy, the box is a theorem in some places not others. So this is a totally new understanding of theorem. It doesn't involve "true" or "proved." Calling a box a theorem will certainly seem strange to a mathematician, however this is what is going on behind the scenes. It is not appropriate to say "Well but it isn't REALLY a theorem." That would be missing the point entirely. It is exactly this that is the essence of theorem. This is what it is like to talk about syntax without semantics. The same analogy goes for tautologies, although I found theorem easier to explain. 1369:
equivalent under mild assumptions that would tend to hold in logics unless they are specifically constructed to form a counterexample. Following the definitions of the article, maximal completeness implies syntactic completeness, but the converse implication does not necessarily hold. Take the logic whose sentences consist of a finite sequence of ¬ symbols followed by the symbol ⊥. The theorems are those sentences that have an odd number of ¬ symbols: {¬⊥, ¬¬¬⊥, ¬¬¬¬¬⊥, ...}. This logic is clearly syntactically complete. But ⊥ is not a theorem, and this sentence is also not a negation and therefore not the negation of any theorem. So the logic is not maximally complete. In general, a necessary condition for maximal completeness is that all unprovable sentences have the form of a negation; you can't have

We are able to move symbols around on paper according to rules, and get other symbols that happen to preserve deductive qualities. This is the level of analysis we seek, because we want to make sure we have a legitimate deductive system, with no presuppositions (as you have made about the so-called "equal numbers" you speak of.) We can see today that Euclid fudged somewhat on the rigor of some of his proofs. I'm sure he thought it was okay at the time. Mathematics is orders of magnitude more complex today, so BE CAREFUL! ...and be well.
2043:. I think the definition should be changed to agree with usual practice: a theory or formal system is inconsistent iff some formula and its negation are both theorems. Also, on the stricter logical meaning of "sentence" (a formula with no free variables), the equivalence as stated above is not as strong as it could be because it holds for all formulas. I will gladly change the definition if no one has objections. Cheers, 22: 2012:
Theorem, S is a complete subset of V. However, an infinite linear combination of monomials is a power series. And a power series which converges always gives you a differentiable function (even a real analytic function). But there are functions in C which are not differentiable. So, the statement must be false. Unless I dont understant the statement correctly. I hope, someone can explain this.--

fine. However, it should not be looked upon as foreign or hostile at all. Please look at it as filling in the philosophical perspective. It seems to me that in philosophy classes we are told that mathematicians study this area too, but the mathematicians are not told that we study this area too (or they are told and promptly shrug them off as pretenders --silly).

calculus. Formally, implies . Especially, all tautologies of the logic can be proven. Even when working with classical logic, this is not equivalent to the notion of completeness introduced above (both a statement and its negation might not be tautologies with respect to the logic). The reverse implication is called soundness.
1071:, interpreting the entries in the tables as strings of digits, it is syntactic equality. Well, the two notions will never give an observable difference, not for these equalities and not for tautologies. The statement that the two always give rise to the same verdict is itself a tautology. We may as well distinguish between 723:

This actually is the more fundamental understanding, not trivial at all, perhaps you have been mathematically prejudiced.

certain symbols as constants. Otherwise, suppose we have a logic with 0-ary symbols ⊥ and ⊤. We can interpret ⊥ and ⊤ as, respectively, "false" and "true" in some models, but as "true" and "false" in other models. That means that basically no sentence holds in all models. If the logic is semantically
1094:
You understand that this kind of supports my whole "mathematical prejudice" theory do you not? You are going to interpret a number as a number, huh? Yeah that seems pretty silly. Only that is not what is going on here. It's not a number until it is interpreted as such, until then it is just a symbol.

There are no deadlines on wp, so I don't really have a good answer. The next time I get to the university library perhaps?

In proof theory and related fields of mathematical logic, a formal calculus is said to be complete with respect to a certain logic (i.e. with respect to its semantics), if every statement P that follows semantically from a set of premises G can be derived syntactically from these premisses within the

If by FS you mean the system with theorems of the form †∗†∗ then I must confess I haven't the foggiest idea what it means for a string of daggers and asterisks to be a tautology, and so your statement that this system may qualify as not being complete in your sense of the term carries no content for

Well Lambiam, let me first say that I appreciate your care and attention to these matters. Our discussion has been a pleasure on my part. As you may know, I am not always very diplomatic, so please forgive my forthright conjecture. I can tell you have studied this subject well. It is clear that you

The formulation is inappropriate anyway. Every sentence being a theorem is a standard definition of an inconsistent deductive system going back at least to Tarski. It has nothing to do with expressing truth or falsehood, and it is a mainstream usage. Even if Gregbard manages to dig a reference for

A semantic tautology is a wff of truth-functional propositional logic whose truth table column contains nothing but T's when these are interpreted as the truth-value Truth. A syntactic tautology is a wff of truth-functional logic whose truth table column contains nothing but T's when these T's are

I doubt that the statement is correct. Take for example the prominent separable Banach space V:=C, the space of continuous real valued functions on the unit interval with the topology of uniform convergence and take S:={1,X,X^2, ...} to be set of all monomials. Then, by Weierstrass Approximation

I think your statement "...do you just mean that "A = A" is not true because "A" is a variable?" is another way of looking at the idea I am trying to explain. These are syntactic qualities. I will look further into these matters and try to get a good example. In lieu of that good example, I will

right? I'm going to get back to you at some point for your example. It is the formation of the symbols, "→", "p", etc, that determine whether it is a tautology or not, not any interpretation of, for instance, p being true. So for instance, if your example is a tautology, then it is a token or the

This won't work, (I'm thinking this out, even as I type.), since the differences between the elements in a Cauchy sequence need not be rational. It would work if instead of the subfield isomorphic to the rationals, we used the largest subfield isomorphic to a subfield of the reals. But it's not

Michael, you said "Not all ordered fields are metric spaces; this is not merely a special case of the metric space case." You are correct, of course, but the concept of a Cauchy sequence is still meaningful in nonmetric ordered fields. Every ordered field has a unique subfield isomorphic to the

If the logic is sound and syntactically complete, then it is also semantically complete: every true sentence is a theorem. The argument is as follows. Let P be an arbitrary true sentence. Then ¬P cannot be a theorem, since the system is sound. But then instead P is a theorem, since the system is

I hope at some point this results in an "aha moment" rather than impatience with myself. I am only a cab driver, so I am learning a lot more from others than I am contributing. However, these appear to be concepts that mathematicians in general do not care about or, pay attention to, and that is

the sentences ⊥ and ⊤, and nothing else. The logic has a single axiom, ⊤, and no derivation rules. This logic cannot be syntactically complete, since neither ⊥ nor ¬⊥ is a theorem – the latter is not even a sentence of the language! But the system is semantically sound and

number of ¬ symbols: {⊥, ¬¬⊥, ¬¬¬¬⊥, ...}. This logic is clearly syntactically complete. The true sentences are those with an odd number of ¬ symbols, but none of these is a theorem, so this logic is semantically incomplete. It is also very unsound.

I agree that if non-mathematical usages are to be included, that should be a separate page. But perhaps in that case, this page should be moved to "Completeness (mathematics)", or, if that's a bit too narrow, "Completeness (mathematical sciences)".
631:
question I have is how long are you willing to wait for (1) and (2)? I think the fact that this type of formula can be a non-tautologous theorem should really inform and enhance your notion of tautology. That's is what I would like for the readers.
1260:; it is zany that the latter use of the term, which is not even mentioned in any dictionary I have access to and does not occur (except for the Knowledge article) in the first 100 Google hits for "completion", should have primacy. Funny fact: 2139: 338:
This is the primary, fundamental, canonical definition of completeness. What you say is true (of semantic completeness), however, that formulation of completeness is a little further down the road from syntactic completeness, so to speak.

The appropriate thing to do in cases like this is place a citation tag, not delete. That is what those tags are for. It would be nice if people looking for certain terms could find them -- even if certain special people don't use them.

I'm not even sure a definition of inconsistency is needed here since a) an article about completeness and b) where consistency it is used in the definitions of completeness, it is linked to the page on consistency. I'll remove it.

I removed "and only if" from the three main logical definitions of completeness since this implies soundness is required. If it was indeed "iff", then the correct symbolic version of, say semantic completeness, would actually be:

Linear combinations are by definition finite, so we would have to say a bit more to make this statement precise. Even then, I'm not sure that it is true in general (it surely works in Hilbert spaces though).

The symbolic translation of “A formal system S is semantically complete if and only if every tautology of S is a theorem of S” is 1911:
