(Abstract)

Hilbert’s epsilon-calculus is based on an extension of the language of predicate logic by a term-forming operator $\varepsilon$ [1].  Two fundamental results about the epsilon-calculus, the first and second epsilon theorem, play a role similar to that which the cut-elimination theorem plays in sequent calculus.  In particular, Herbrand’s Theorem is a consequence of the epsilon theorems.  Moser and Zach study the epsilon theorems and the complexity of the elimination procedure underlying their proof, as well as the length of Herbrand disjunctions of existential theorems obtained by this elimination procedure [2].We extend their results to epsilon-calculus with equality predicate. This is joint work with Georg Moser.
