Since this fact entails the existence of polynomial time algorithms, it is relevant for computer science. On a technical level, our axiom scheme is a variant of an independence result due to Harvey Friedman. At the same time, the meta-mathematical properties of our axiom scheme distinguish it from most known independence results: Due to its logical complexity, our axiom scheme does not add computational strength. The only known method to establish its independence relies on G\u00f6del\u2019s second incompleteness theorem. In contrast, G\u00f6del\u2019s theorem is not needed for typical examples of <jats:inline-formula><jats:alternatives><jats:inline-graphic xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" mime-subtype=\"png\" xlink:href=\"S1755020321000265_inline4.png\" \/><jats:tex-math>\n$\\Pi ^0_2$\n<\/jats:tex-math><\/jats:alternatives><\/jats:inline-formula>-independence (such as the Paris\u2013Harrington principle), since computational strength provides an extensional invariant on the level of <jats:inline-formula><jats:alternatives><jats:inline-graphic xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" mime-subtype=\"png\" xlink:href=\"S1755020321000265_inline5.png\" \/><jats:tex-math>\n$\\Pi ^0_2$\n<\/jats:tex-math><\/jats:alternatives><\/jats:inline-formula>-sentences.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s1755020321000265","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,2]],"date-time":"2021-07-02T09:18:57Z","timestamp":1625217537000},"page":"880-906","update-policy":"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1017\/policypage","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["A MATHEMATICAL COMMITMENT WITHOUT COMPUTATIONAL STRENGTH"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"ANTON","family":"FREUND","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"S1755020321000265_r45","first-page":"410","volume-title":"Reflections on the Foundations of Mathematics.
