On the consistency and independence of some set-theoretical axioms
1978
Notre Dame Journal of Formal Logic
In this paper by means of simple models it is shown that the five set-theoretical axioms of Extensionality, Replacement, Power-Set, Sum-Set, and Choice are consistent and that each of the axioms of Extensionality ...

Remarks on Second-Order Consequence
2010
THEORIA : an International Journal for Theory, History and Fundations of Science
We discuss the dependence of canonical second-order consequence on set theory and raise doubts on the assumption that canonical consequence is a definite relation. ...
In the canonical, or standard, version, a model is just an ordinary structure and the (monadic) second-order variables are meant to range over all subsets of its domain. ...
A large amount of set-theoretical propositions which are known to be independent of the usual set theory ZFC (Zermelo-Fraenkel with the axiom of choice) are precisely about the contents of the power set ...

Remarks on Intended Models of Mathematical Theories
2011
Lingua Posnaniensis
Some emphasis is put on the role of extremal axioms in the characterization of such models. the notion of the intended model seems to be of some interest for linguists, too. this is one of the reasons ...

Furthermore, for set theorist, any advantage that V = L has in terms of power can be obtained with more powerful axioms of the same rough type that accommodate measurable cardinals and the like - e.g., ...

Believing the axioms. I
1988
Journal of Symbolic Logic (JSL)
Conversely, the axiomatization of set theory has led to the consideration of axiom candidates that no one finds obvious, not even their staunchest supporters. ...
Again, the more sophisticated might prefer to say that the axioms are "laws of logic" or "implicit definitions" or "conceptual truths" or some such thing.Unfortunately, heartwarming answers along these ...
Thus some mathematicians will stand by the truth of any consequence of ZFC, but dismiss additional axioms and their consequences as metaphysical rot. ...

Second-Order Logic and Set Theory
2015
Philosophy Compass
We argue that we should think of first order set theory as a very high order logic. ...
We take it upon ourselves in this paper to compare the two approaches, second order logic on one hand and set theory on the other hand, evaluating their merits and weaknesses. ...
Often in set theory one applies the Axiom of Choice to an auxiliary larger set obtained by means of the Power Set Axiom, or even a combination of the Power Set Axiom and the Replacement Axiom. ...

The set-theoretic axioms, added to the elementary logic of truth functions and quantification, are three: the usual extensionality axiom, the axiom that {x, y} exists for all x and y, and the axiom that ...
Thus the possibility. is preserved, even if some infinite classes are eventually added for purposes beyond number theory, of maintaining something like the old distinction between sets and other classes ...
