Abstract
Godel’s paper on formally undecidable propositions in first order Peano arithmetic (Godel 1931) showed that any recursive axiomatic system containing Peano arithmetic still admits propositions which are not decidable. Godel’s original example of such a proposition was not that illuminating. It was merely a kind of formalization of the well known antinomy of the liar. This raised the problem to look for intuitively meaningful propositions which are independent of Peano arithmetic.
