Axiomatizable ClassIn mathematics, an axiomatizable class is a class whose standard definition can be expressed as a sentence of formal symbols. The resulting sentences that can be built out of the axioms are the topic of study of model theory. Thus, for example, the axiomatic sentences of a multiplicative group are: -
-
-
The axioms of a left R-module are the axioms of a multiplicative group, together with the additional sentences - for all
- for all
- for all
-
Many of the common classes of mathematics are easily axiomatizable, including the rings, fields, lattices, boolean algebras and the like. See also References - Wilfrid Hodges (1997). A shorter model theory. Cambridge University Press. ISBN 0-521-58713-1.
