We slightly modify this notion by requiring the arithmetical realizations to come from a specified set $\\Gamma$. We make an analogous modification for interpretability logics. This is a paper from 2012. We first studied provability logics with restricted realizations, and show that for various natural candidates of theory T and restriction set $\\Gamma$, where each sentence in $\\Gamma$ has a well understood (meta)-mathematical content in T, the result is the logic of linear frames. However, for the theory Primitive Recursive Arithmetic (PRA), we define a fragment that gives rise to a more interesting provability logic, by capitalizing on the well-studied relationship between PRA and I$\\Sigma_1$. We then study interpretability logics, obtaining some upper bounds for IL(PRA), whose characterization remains a major open question in interpretability logic. Again this upper bound is closely relatively to linear frames. The technique is also applied to yield the non-trivial result that IL(PRA) $\\subset$ ILM.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-06-18T13:56:20.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "restricted realizations", "upper bound", "linear frames", "arithmetical realization", "major open question" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
