Descrizione del libro

What are the appropriate axioms for mathematics? Through a series of case studies, this volume examines these axioms to prove particular theorems in core areas including algebra, analysis, and topology, focusing on the language of second-order arithmetic, the weakest language rich enough to express and develop the bulk of mathematics.
