Peano Arithmetic may not be interpretable in the monadic theory of orders

preprint1993arXivOpen access

Abstract

Gurevich and Shelah have shown that Peano Arithmetic cannot be interpreted in the monadic second-order theory of short chains (hence, in the monadic second-order theory of the real line). We show here that it is consistent that there is no interpretation even in the monadic second-order theory of all chains.
