Abstract

We study the strength of weak forms of the Regularity Principle in the presence of IE 1 (induction on bounded existential formulas) relative to other subsystems of PA. In particular, the Bounded Weak Regularity Principle is formulated, and it is shown that when applied to E 1 formulas, this principle is equivalent over \(IE_1^-\) to 0 + exp.
