Hyperarithmetical Complexity of Infinitary Action Logic with Multiplexing
Abstract
In 2023, Kuznetsov and Speranski introduced infinitary action logic with multiplexing !m∇ ACTω and proved that the derivability problem for it lies between the ω and ωω levels of the hyperarithmetical hierarchy. We prove that this problem is 0ωω-complete under Turing reductions. Namely, we show that it is recursively isomorphic to the satisfaction predicate for computable infinitary formulas of rank less than ωω in the language of arithmetic. As a consequence we prove that the closure ordinal for !m∇ ACTω equals ωω. We also prove that the fragment of !m∇ ACTω where Kleene star is not allowed to be in the scope of the subexponential is 0ωω-complete. Finally, we present a family of logics, which are fragments of !m∇ ACTω, such that the complexity of the k-th logic lies between 0ωk and 0ωk+1.
