metalogicSatisfaction of a theory by a structure: finite and infinite modelsâŠmathematician Ernst Schröder and in Löwenheim (in particular, in his paper of 1915). The basic tools and results achieved in model theoryâsuch as the Löwenheim-Skolem theorem, the completeness theorem of elementary logic, and Skolemâs construction of nonstandard models of arithmeticâwere developed during the period from 1915 to 1933.

history of logicCompletenessâŠshown, by the German logician Leopold Löwenheim and the Norwegian mathematician Thoralf Skolem, that first-order axiom systems cannot be complete in this Hilbertian sense. The theorem that bears their namesâthe Löwenheim-Skolem theoremâhas two parts. First, if a first-order proposition or finite axiom system has any models, it has countable models.âŠ
