Abstract:

In this lecture we will give an introduction to the theory of computations and proofs. We will start with classical results such as decidable and undecidable problems and the Gödel incompleteness theorems. Then we will go into more advanced topics, discussing what information can be gained from the fact that a function is not only computable but verifiable in some formal system. Finally, we will focus on fast growing functions and examples of combinatorial statements unprovable in Peano arithmetic.
