Abstract

AbstractSambin [6] proved the normalization theorem (Hauptsatz) for GL, the modal logic of provability, in a sequent calculus version called by him GLS. His proof does not take into account the concept of reduction, commonly used in normalization proofs. Bellini [1], on the other hand, gave a normalization proof for GL using reductions. Indeed, Sambin's proof is a decision procedure which builds cut‐free proofs. In this work we formalize this procedure as a recursive function and prove its recursiveness in an arithmetically formalizable way, concluding that the normalization of GL can be formalized in PA.
