The Birth of Model Theory Lowenheim's Theorem in the Frame of the Theory of Relatives

The Birth of Model Theory: Lowenheim's Theorem in the Frame of the Theory of Relatives by Calixto Badesa
English | 2004 | ISBN: 0691058539 | ISBN-13: 9780691058535 | 256 pages | PDF | 1,3 MB



Lowenheim's theorem reflects a critical point in the history of mathematical logic, for it marks the birth of model theory-that is, the part of logic that concerns the relationship between formal theories and their models. However, while the original proofs of other, comparably significant theorems are well understood, this is not the case with Lowenheim's theorem.

For example, the very result that scholars attribute to Lowenheim today is not the one that Skolem-a logician raised in the algebraic tradition, like Lowenheim-appears to have attributed to him. In The Birth of Model Theory, Calixto Badesa provides both the first sustained, book-length analysis of Lowenheim's proof and a detailed description of the theoretical framework-and, in particular, of the algebraic tradition-that made the theorem possible.

Badesa's three main conclusions amount to a completely new interpretation of the proof, one that sharply contradicts the core of modern scholarship on the topic. First, Lowenheim did not use an infinitary language to prove his theorem; second, the functional interpretation of Lowenheim's normal form is anachronistic, and inappropriate for reconstructing the proof; and third, Lowenheim did not aim to prove the theorem's weakest version but the stronger version Skolem attributed to him. This book will be of considerable interest to historians of logic, logicians, philosophers of logic, and philosophers of mathematics.
