    (a) The halting problem proofs,
    (b) Gödel's 1931 incompleteness theorem,
    (c) The Tarski Undefinability theorem and
    (d) The liar paradox
    all suffer from the same foundational error.

    I will point out that the liar's paradox is a completely
    DIFFERENT sort of issue,


    When analytical truth is understood to be connected sets of >>>>>>>>>> true statements that necessarily derive true conclusions then >>>>>>>>>> all four of the above examples lose their basis and cease to >>>>>>>>>> exist.

    Except that it doesn't. Formal Logic IS built on the concept >>>>>>>>> that you can only prove a conclusion from True Premises.

    What is isn't built on that Truth has to be proven. Something >>>>>>>>> can be True even if not proven, but if you can't prove it to be >>>>>>>>> true, you can't use it for the basis of a further proof.


    Within the body of analytic knowledge an expression of language >>>>>>>> is only true when a connected set of true expressions prove that >>>>>>>> it is true, thus true and unprovable cannot possibly co-exist.

    Then the body of analytic knowledge (or at least your
    interpreation of it) can't deal with the body of knowledge of
    Mathematics, (and related logic families) as they allow for a
    statement to be True without needing to be connected to a proof. >>>>>>> PERIOD.
    Lets proceed from here. How do we know that a mathematical
    expression is true aside from its proof that it is true?


    We don't. But we might know that it is True or False, and can
    bifurcate on that knowledge.

    Yet the Gödel sentence proposed to be true and unprovable.
    That cannot possibly be. If it is true then it is provably true
    otherwise it is untrue (not the same as false).


    The Godel sentence is more complicated then that. In essence the
    Godel sentence says the Godel sentence is can not be proven to be
    true (without directly referencing th Godel sentence).

    Either the sentence is True, then it can not be actually PROVEN true
    in the system, since the sentence states, indirectly, that it is
    unprovable. (The connection of the statement to itself is outside the
    reach of the algerbra in question).

    Thus, if it IS true, it must be unprovable.

    That is exactly the same as the liar paradox:

    No, it isn't.

    This sentence is not true. (Is indeed not true).
    This sentence cannot be proven. (Is indeed unprovable).

    The key is that the liar paradox directly refers to the sentence in
    question.

    The Godel sentence doesn't, it refers to the sentence by reference to properties that can't be directly mapped within the algerbra, but can
    with some meta-analysis. You don't seem to understand the difference.

    This is just like the fact that H^ does NOT have any self-reference in
    it, the machine H^ does absolutely nothing to refer to itself, (and
    thus, the algorithm in H/H^ can't base anything on there being a self-reference)

    THe key is that H^ can take any machines description as its input, so we
    can just happen to give it the representation of itself. This is also
    NOT a self-reference, the input doesn't somehow encode the statement
    'look at yourself', it just happens to match the machine it is being
    given to.



    Gödel expressly said that the liar paradox can be used to derive his
    same result, directly quoted on page 7:

    Right, he started with the basis of the liar's paradox, but by changing
    how it refers to itself, it removes the issue. Note also, Not Provable
    is not the same as If False (except by your faulty logic).


    LP := ~True(LP)
    is isomorphic to
    G := ~Provable(G)
    Both specify an infinite a cycle that Prolog would reject.


    https://www.researchgate.net/publication/333907915_Proof_that_Wittgenstein_is_correct_about_Godel


    The liar paradox and Gödel's G are simply not truth bearers in the
    same way that the sentence: "What time is it?" is not a truth bearer.
    No self-contradictory expression of language is ever a truth bearer.
