Abstract

Assume ZFC + “There is a weakly compact cardinal” is consistent. Then:

(i) For every S ⊆ ω, ZFC + “S and the monadic theory of ω2 are recursive each in the other” is consistent; and

(ii) ZFC + “The full second-order theory of ω2 is interpretable in the monadic theory of ω2” is consistent.
