Proof as a Σ₁ approximation to truth: what about higher degrees?
Let us posit that the goal of mathematics is to study mathematical truths, and let us stick to arithmetic for simplicity: so let $\mathscr{T} \subseteq \mathbb{N}$ be the set of (Gödel codes of) true …

Does this "mixable" property have a standard name in constructive mathematics?
While thinking about constructive mathematics, I stumbled on the following notion, and I would like to know if it has a standard name, a simpler equivalent, or has appeared in the literature:
Say tha …

Does second-order Heyting arithmetic have the disjunction and existence properties?
Consider full second-order Heyting arithmetic, axiomatized in two-sorted first-order intuitionistic logic (with “number” and “class” variables) by the usual Peano axioms (with induction being stated q …

Are finitely enumerated and subfinite sets Dedekind-finite?
The context of this question is constructive mathematics, such as in the internal logic of a topos with natural numbers object, or in IZF.
Let us say that a set $X$ is:
finite when there exists a nat …

Does the Rieger-Nishimura lattice over a subset of $\mathbb{R}^k$ stabilize?
Notation: If $U,V$ are open subsets of a topological space $X$, let us write $U\Rrightarrow V$ for the Heyting operation: the largest open subset $W$ of $X$ such that $U\cap W \subseteq V$ (i.e., the …

Examples of Kreisel-Putnam topological spaces
Let us say that a topological space $X$ is a Kreisel-Putnam space when it satisfies the following property:
For all open sets $V_1, V_2$ and regular open set $W$ of $X$, if a point $x\in X$ has a …

Fibers of the morphism from the free Heyting algebra to the free Boolean algebra
For $k\in\mathbb{N}$, let $H_k$ be the free Heyting algebra on $k$ variables $p_1,\ldots,p_k$ and $B_k$ be the free Boolean algebra on the same $k$ variables. Thus, $B_k$ has $2^{2^k}$ elements (corr …

Is there a correspondence between principles of omniscience and computability classes?
My question will be speculative and therefore a little vague.
I wonder if attempts have been made to define a correspondence between, on the one hand, limited principles of omniscience that can be add …

Is there a modern account of Veblen functions of *several* variables?
Veblen $\phi$ functions extend the $\xi \mapsto \phi(\xi) := \omega^\xi$ and the $\xi \mapsto \phi(1,\xi) := \varepsilon_\xi$ functions on the ordinals by repeatedly taking fixed points (I won't repea …

What is the strength of “if $c≥0$ then $[0,c] = c·[0,1]$” in constructive math (w.r.t., LPO,...
Context: This question is about constructive mathematics, such as in the internal logic of a topos with natural numbers object, or in IZF. (I wish to avoid the axiom of countable choice if possible, …

Various notions of Turing reduction for partial functions
If $f$ and $g$ are partial functions $\mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{N}$, define six preorder relations $f \preceq g$ as follows:
$f \mathop{\preceq_{\mathrm{S}}} g$ ("$f$ is strict/Sasso reducible to $g$") …

Variable elimination for propositional formulas in Heyting algebras
By an (intuitionistic) propositional formula $\varphi(x_1,\ldots,x_n)$ I mean a formula built up from a (finite) number of variables $x_1,\ldots,x_n$ using connectors $\top, \bot, \land, \lor, \Righta …

What is the power of the “anti-halting” oracle?
Let me first ask the question, and then, as it may seem a bit cryptic, explain how it comes up (and whence the “anti-halting oracle” in the title):
Notations: we write $\langle m,n\rangle$ for a stand …

Understanding the definition of a (computably / continuously) “transparent” function
The following definitions of a “transparent function” are essentially taken from references [1] (where it is called a “jump operator”), [2] and [3], except that the variation “primitively recursively …
