Extract

The aim of the paper is to prove the completeness theorem for biprobability models. This also solves Keisler's Problem 5.4 (see [4]).

Let be a countable admissible set and ω. The logic is similar to the standard probability logic . The only difference is that two types of probability quantifiers and are allowed.

A biprobability model is a structure (, μ1, μ2) where is a classical structure without operations and μ1, μ2 are two types of probability measures such that μ1 is absolutely continuous with respect to μ2, i.e. μ1μ2.

The quantifiers are interpreted in the natural way, i.e.

for i = 1, 2. (The measure is the restriction of the completion of to the σ-algebra generated by the measurable rectangles and the diagonal sets

Axioms and rules of inference are those of , as listed in [2] with the axiom B4 from [4], with the remark that both P1 and P2 can play the role of P, together with the following axioms:

Axioms of continuity.

  • 1) .

  • 2) .

Axiom of absolute continuity:

where and Φn = {φΦ: φ has n free variables}.
