Paris-Harrington principles parametrized by functions $f:\mathbb N \to \mathbb N$
Recall that the Paris-Harrington Principle, $\mathsf{PH}$, is the statement that for each $e, r, k < \omega$ there is an $N < \omega$ so that given any coloring $c:[N]^e \to r$ there is an $H \...

Are all generalized Scott sets realized as generalized standard systems?
Below, I've focused on PA when lots of other theories would do. If replacing PA with a different theory leads to a more answerable question, feel free to do so.

If one adds an inductive subset to a model of $ACA_0$, do we always get a new model of $ACA_0$?
Suppose $(M, \mathcal X) \models ACA_0$. Recall that a subset $A \subseteq M$ is $inductive$ over $M$ if $M$ satisfies all instances of induction in the expanded language with a predicate for $A$. ...

Weakest subsystems of second order arithmetic for mathematical logic
It is known that to prove completeness of first-order logic for countable languages WKL0 is enough. But, is it the weakest subsystem where one can prove it?
What about the incompleteness theorems? Is ...
