Set recursion and Πhalf-logic

TL;DR: On construit par induction sur des dilateurs une hierarchie Φ F de fonctions ensemble recursives relatives a hΦ F (x)=I(F, x, h) and on demontre que si g est ensemble recursive dans h, alors g(x)≤ΦF (x) pour un certain dilateur F et pour tout x∈O n.

Monotone Proofs of the Pigeon Hole Principle

TL;DR: A size-depth trade-oo upper bound for monotone proofs of the standard encoding of the PHP as a monot one sequent is proved, and Resolution, Cutting Planes with polynomially bounded coeecients, and Bounded-Depth Frege are exponentially separated from the monotOne Gentzen Calculus.

On the compressibility of finite languages and formal proofs

TL;DR: The minimal number of productions needed for a grammar to cover a finite language L as the grammatical complexity of L is considered and it is shown that it is closely connected to well-known measures for the complexity of formal proofs in first-order predicate logic.

Improved bounds on the weak Pigeonhole principle and infinitely many primes from weaker axioms

TL;DR: A size-depth trade-off upper bound is given: there are proofs of size nO(d(log(n))2/d) and depth O(d), which implies a proof of the unboundedness of primes in Iδ0 with a provably weaker 'large number assumption' than previously needed.

Assignment of ordinals to patterns of resemblance

TL;DR: This paper establishes an effective order isomorphism between the classical and the new system of ordinal notations using the results from [6] and [7] and develops mutual (relatively) elementary recursive assignments which are uniform with respect to the underlying relativization.
