Jan 7, 2013 at 19:00 comment added Emil Jeřábek Ali, the totality of $2^{2|x|}$ is not an equivalent formulation of $\Omega_1$, it is simply wrong. I think you are confused by the fact that the subscripts of $\omega_i$ in Hájek and Pudlák are off by one from both the usual convention and from the subscripts in $\Omega_i$.

fix the definition

Jan 7, 2013 at 18:34 comment added Ali Enayat @Emil: thanks for your comments. I will add a note on the answer.
Jan 7, 2013 at 14:26 comment added Emil Jeřábek And of course, the incompleteness theorem is provable in much weaker fragments than $I\Delta_0+\Omega_1$, such as $\mathit{PV}_1$.
Jan 7, 2013 at 14:22 comment added Emil Jeřábek @Ali: Goldstern is right. Your definition is an inessential variant of $x^2$, and is provably total in $I\Delta_0$.
Jan 6, 2013 at 16:23 comment added Ali Enayat @Martin: Thanks, I fixed the def. of $\Omega_1$. The right one is between what I had written and what you suggested; see p.272 of the Hájek-Pudlák text mentioned in my comment to Andrew (it is in Ch. V of the book).

Jan 6, 2013 at 16:15 comment added Ali Enayat @Andrew: The second paragraph is not a quotation; the highlighting was used for journalistic reasons. The standard reference on the subject is the book "Metamathematics of First-Order Arithmetic" by Petr Hájek, and Pavel Pudlák (1998) [see the first chapter for $I\Delta_0 + exp$, and the last chapter for $I\Delta_0 + \Omega_1$]. This book is available on Project Euclid at projecteuclid.org/….
Jan 6, 2013 at 15:11 comment added Andrew Critch Thanks for this! Is that grey box a quotation? If so, where from? Where would you recommend I get started reading about this?

Jan 6, 2013 at 12:54 comment added Goldstern Really $2^{|x|}$, not $2^{|x|^2}$?
