Questions

Corrections and clarifications:

  • In the exercise 3.b it should be indicated as help the Diagonalization lemma, which states that for every $A$ you can build a sentence $S$ such that it is provable and true that $S$ is true iff we can deduce that $A$ is true from the existence of a proof of $S$.
  • In the exercise 9.a the matriz T is the matrix with all entries equal to $3$.

Solutions
