A formal system for reasoning about assertibility, truth, and meaningfulness

Nik Weaver

TL;DR

This work proposes axioms governing the interaction of constructive assertibility and meaningfulness predicates with a self-applicative truth predicate characterized by the T-scheme, and proves the consistency of the resulting formal system.

Abstract

We propose axioms governing the interaction of constructive assertibility and meaningfulness predicates with a self-applicative truth predicate characterized by the T-scheme, and we prove the consistency of the resulting formal system.
