Goldbach's Conjecture — A Route to the Inconsistency of Arithmetic
Authors/Creators
Description
This paper proves an inconsistency in Peano arithmetic (PA). We express two propositions — a strengthened form of the strong Goldbach conjecture and its negation — using a specific set that varies depending on these propositions. On the other hand, we show that this set remains unchanged under the assumptions of the two statements. This causes a contradiction.
