Abstract

For a classical theory T, ℋ(T) denotes the intuitionistic theory of T-normal (i.e. locally T) Kripke structures. S. Buss has asked for a characterization of the theories in the range of ℋ and raised the particular question of whether HA is an ℋ-theory. We show that T i ∈ range(ℋ) iff T i = ℋ(T). As a corollary, no fragment of HA extending iΠ 1 belongs to the range of ℋ. A. Visser has already proved that HA is not in the range of H by different methods. We provide more examples of theories not in the range of ℋ. We show PA-normality of once-branching Kripke models of HA + MP, where it is not known whether the same holds if MP is dropped.
