A Stronger Foundation for Computer Science and P=NP

Abstract

This article describes a Turing machine which can solve for β' which is RE-complete. RE-complete problems are proven to be undecidable by Turing's accepted proof on the Entscheidungsproblem. Thus, constructing a machine which decides over β' implies inconsistency in ZFC. We then discover that unrestricted use of the axiom of substitution can lead to hidden assumptions in a certain class of proofs by contradiction. These hidden assumptions create an implied axiom of incompleteness for ZFC. Later, we offer a restriction on the axiom of substitution by introducing a new axiom which prevents impredicative tautologies from producing theorems. Our discovery in regards to these foundational arguments, disproves the SPACE hierarchy theorem which allows us to solve the P vs NP problem using a TIME-SPACE equivalence oracle.
