Apr 19, 2014 at 18:43 | comment | added | Peter LeFanu Lumsdaine | @ChristianRemling: “The truth of a conjecture can’t make a set $\Pi^0_1$ if it wasn't so to start with.” Sure, but the $\Pi^0_1$-ness of a set can be implied by (or even equivalent to) some conjecture. A proof of the conjecture can’t change whether the set is $\Pi^0_1$, but it can tell us whether or not it is. | |

Apr 11, 2014 at 20:48 | comment | added | Bjørn Kjos-Hanssen | Once it's proven, the sentence is proven to be equivalent to a $\Pi^0_1$ statement, namely $0=0$. When we speak of "a sentence" we probably mean "up to provable equivalence" since the Millennium Problems are only defined up to provable equivalence... | |
Apr 11, 2014 at 19:10 | comment | added | Monroe Eskew | I don't see how assuming a statement to be true makes it $\Pi^0_1$. | |
Apr 11, 2014 at 17:58 | comment | added | Alex Gavrilov | Yes, but I mean it is proven and assumed to be true. | |
Apr 11, 2014 at 17:54 | comment | added | Monroe Eskew | What do you mean by, "After all, once a conjecture is proven, it is in $\Pi^0_1$ by definition"? Logically speaking, a sentence $\sigma$ is not in general equivalent to "there is a proof of $\sigma$," as Goedel shows. | |
