Abstract

Varieties of the Fan Theorem have recently been developed in reverse constructive mathematics, corresponding to different continuity principles. They form a natural implicational hierarchy. Earlier work showed all of these implications to be strict. Here we re-prove one of the strictness results, using very different arguments. The technique used is a mixture of realizability, forcing in the guise of Heyting-valued models, and Kripke models.

Notes

  1. 1.

    If the reader is feeling any frustration at the length and detail of this proof, it might amuse them to know that in an earlier draft, the spot above contained an expletive.
