Nonstandard characterizations of recursive saturation and resplendency
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 March 2014
Abstract
We prove results about nonstandard formulas in models of Peano arithmetic which complement those of Kotlarski, Krajewski, and Lachlan in [KKL] and [L]. This enables us to characterize both recursive saturation and resplendency in terms of statements about nonstandard sentences. Specifically, a model of PA is recursively saturated iff is nonstandard and -logic is consistent. is resplendent iff is nonstandard, -logic is consistent, and every sentence φ which is consistent in -logic is contained in a full satisfaction class for . Thus, for models of PA, recursive saturation can be expressed by a (standard) -sentence and resplendency by a -sentence.
