II. Difference between true and provable a) Definition

Mathematics are not complete

Or the first Gödel theorem

Introduction

Historically mathematics were usually studied with philosophy to find the truth. Mathematics in contrast to philosophy seem irrefutable.

What is the truth in maths and every truth is it provable?

David Hilbert 1862-1943

b) Parallel with justice

Mr Theorem is accused to be false. The judge (=a mathematician) look at the fact.

In this case:

False

=

Refutable True

=

Provable

True False

Provable Refutable

Complete Incomplete

No evidence to discharge him (=say he’s true)

I. How maths are built?

Proved theorem

Logic rules Axioms

IV. First theorem III. Incoherence

Incoherent axioms system=

it exists a theorem provable and refutable

I want to find a complete axiomatic

system

Complete -> every window is attainable

Incomplete -> there is a window unattainable

An axioms

system allowing arithmetic, is incomplete or incoherent.

Simplified idea of proof:

Create a theorem called G

G is provable if and only if G is false

It is not possible to

find a complete axiomatic

system

Kurt Gödel 1906-1978

David Hilbert 1862-1943 No evidence to

charge him

(=say he’s false)

Complete -> every window is attainable

Incomplete -> there is a window unattainable
