Abstract

Metalogical properties that have traditionally been studied in the deductive system context (see, e.g., [21]) and transferred later to the institution context [33], are here formulated in the π-institution context. Preservation under deductive equivalence of π-institutions is investigated. If a property is known to hold in all algebraic π-institutions and is preserved under deductive equivalence, then it follows that it holds in all algebraizable π-institutions in the sense of [36].
