    On questions whether Gödel said something or not the sumpreme authority
    is not Mendelson but Gödel.


    When some authors affirm that undecidability and incompleteness
    are the exact same thing then whenever Gödel uses the term
    incompleteness then he is also referring to the term undecidability.

    That does not follow. Besides, a reference to the term "undecidability"
    is not a reference to the concept 'undecidability'.

    In other words you deny the identity principle thus X=X is false.

    It is not a good idea to lie where the truth can be seen.


    "undecidability" is not a reference to the concept 'undecidability'.
    That is the best that I could make about the above quote. There is no standard practice of using different kind of quotes that I am aware of.

    Dishonest partial quoting is not a good idea, either.

    So you were paying attention?
    He said that undecidability is not the same thing as undecidability.
    Somehow he felt that two different kinds of quotes mean something.

    That is a lie. Your deceptive partial quote might seem to say so
    but the original sentnece does not.

    It is not a good idea to say gibberish nonsense and
    expect it to be understood.
    a reference to the term "undecidability"
    is not a reference to the concept 'undecidability'.

    That is how a sentence must be quoted. The proof that the quoted
    sentence can be understood is that Richard Damon undesstood it.

    An undecidable sentence of a theory K is a closed wf ℬ of K such that
    neither ℬ nor ¬ℬ is a theorem of K, that is, such that not-⊢K ℬ and
    not-⊢K ¬ℬ. (Mendelson: 2015:208)

    So that is what "undecideble" means in Mendelson: 2015. Elsewhere it may
    mean something else.

    It usually means one cannot make up one's mind.
    In math it means an epistemological antinomy expression
    is not a proposition thus a type mismatch error for every
    bivalent system of logic.

    No, it doesn't. There is no reference to an epistemological
    anitnomy in "undecidable".

    not-⊢K ℬ and not-⊢K ¬ℬ. (Mendelson: 2015:208)
    K ⊬ ℬ and K ⊬ ¬ℬ. // switching notational conventions

    Incomplete(F) ≡ ∃x ∈ L ((L ⊬  x) ∧ (L ⊬ ¬x))

    So not the same.

    When an expression cannot be proved or refuted is a formal system
    this is exactly the same as an expression cannot be proved or refuted
    in a formal system.

    To say about an expression that neither it nor its negation cannot be
    proven is not the same as to say about a formal system that it contains expressions that can neither be proven or disproven.

    When an expression of language cannot be proved in a formal system only because it is contradictory in this formal system then the inability to
    prove this expression does not place any actual limit on what can be
    proven because formal system are not supposed to prove contradictions.

    The first order theories of Peano arithmetic, ZFC set theory, and
    group theroy are said to be incomplete but you have not shown any
    fromula of any of them that could be called an epistemoloigcal

    In ordinary logic a contradiction is false and its negation is

    An epistemological antinomy can only be an undecidable sentence
    if it can be a sentence. What epistemological antinomies you
    can find that can be expressed in, say, first order goup theory
    or first order arithmetic or first order set tehory?


    It only matters that they can be expressed in some formal system.
    If they cannot be expressed in any formal system then Gödel is
    wrong for a different reason.

    How is it relevant to the incompleteness of a theory whether an
    epistemological antińomy can be expressed in some other formal
    system?

    When an expression of language cannot be proved in a formal system only
    because it is contradictory in this formal system then the inability to
    prove this expression does not place any actual limit on what can be
    proven because formal system are not supposed to prove contradictions.

    The first order theories of Peano arithmetic, ZFC set theory, and
    group theroy are said to be incomplete but you have not shown any
    fromula of any of them that could be called an epistemoloigcal
    antinomy.


    The details of the semantics of the inference steps are hidden behind arithmetization and diagonalization in Gödel's actual proof.

    The correctness of a proof can be checked without any consideration of semantics. If the proof is fully formal there is an algorithm to check
    the correctness.

    ($) ⊢k G ⇔ (∀x2) ¬𝒫𝑓 (x2, ⌜G⌝)

    Observe that, in terms of the standard interpretation (∀x2) ¬𝒫𝑓 (x2, ⌜G⌝) says that there is no natural number that is the Gödel number of a proof in K of the wf G, which is equivalent to asserting that there is
    no proof in K of G.

    The standard interpretation of artihmetic does not say anything about
    proofs and Gödel numbers.

    Mendelson says that Gödel's actual proof is equivalent to:

    For a certain kind of equivalence. But they are not semantically equivalent:
    G is an arithmetic sentence and in the standard smeantics it is interpreted
    as an arithmetic statement about numbers. The statement "I am not provable
    in K" is an English sentence and in the standard semantics of English it
    does not refer to numbers.

    You can regard the two sentences equivalent if you use some non-stadard semantics for arithmetic or English or both. Or you may try to find a
    mapping from one system to another that has the necessary properties to
    prove someting.

    G says “I am not provable in K”. // Mendelson

    That is obviously a non-arithmetic interpretation of G. As G is a formula
    of arithmetic, a non-arithmetic interpretation depends on non-statndard semantics.

    ...We are therefore confronted with a proposition which asserts its own unprovability. 15 ...(Gödel 1931:43-44)

    Likewise.

    This is the correct way to encode that:

    ∃G ∈ K (G := (K ⊬ G))

    No, it isn't, as := means definition and its syntactic rules prohibit
    from using the same symbol (here G) on both sides.
