Hacker News的一个帖子讨论了一篇名为“皮亚诺公理:算术的基石”的文章。最上面的评论批评了这个标题,认为皮亚诺公理只是许多试图定义算术基础公理的尝试之一。一个回复请求提供替代公理系统的例子。另一个评论建议使用海廷算术和一种涉及X -> X+1函子的初始代数的范畴论方法。另一位评论者表达了对像ZFC和皮亚诺公理这样的数学公理的普遍兴趣,尤其是在哥德尔不完备定理的背景下。

The Peano Axioms: Building Blocks of Arithmetic (principlesofcryptography.com)

Not sure where this HN title comes from since it's not the original but I have a gripe with the way it represents Peano's Axioms as THE building blocks of arithmetic. Instead of just one of the many attempts at coming up with a set of axioms that can serve as the building blocks of Arithmetic


What would some others be? I usually only see Peano's axioms.


There are many axiom systems for natural numbers. My favorites are 1. Heyting Arithmetic, and 2. In category theory, one can characterise the natural numbers and the initial algebra of the X |–> X+1. functor.


Don't know why, but to me there is little that I find more interesting than axiomes in math. ZFC / Peano always fascinated me, especially in the light of Gödels incomplete theorem.
