This group gathers theorems of mathematical logic and model theory, the study of formal languages, proofs and the mathematical structures that satisfy them. It covers the limits of formal systems, the relation between provability and truth, the compactness and completeness of first-order logic, definability and interpolation results, and the study of models and their types. A theorem belongs here when its cited article places it in mathematical logic, model theory or the logic of formal systems such as propositional and temporal logic.
