| | NB: I've opted to just get straight to the point with this post rather than attempting to introduce the subject first, so it may be of little interest to readers who aren't already interested in proving the completeness theorem for propositional logic. A PDF version of this document is available here. The key thing I...

He contrasts this with the idea that models must be interpreted in a way that reflects a metaphysical structure of reality. The conversation also touches on the nature of provability operators and their relationship to logical frameworks, highlighting the distinction between formal languages and their interpretations in different contexts.

| | The famous mathematician Kurt Gödel proved two "incompleteness" theorems. This is their story. By the 1930s logicians, especially Tarski, had figured out the semantics of predicate logic. Tarski described what exactly was an 'interpretation' and what it meant for a formula to be true in an interpretation. Briefly, an interpretation is a nonempty set (the...
