We gather the following miscellaneous results in proof theory from the attic.1. 1. A provably well-founded elementary ordering admits an elementary order preserving map.2. 2. A simple proof of an elementary bound for cut elimination in propositional calculus and its applications to separation problem in relativized bounded arithmetic below S21.3. 3. Equivalents for Bar Induction, e.g., reflection schema for ω logic.4. 4. Direct computations in an equational calculus PRE and a decidability problem for provable inequations in PRE.5. 5. Intuitionistic fixed (...) point theories which are conservative extensions of HA.6. 6. Proof theoretic strengths of classical fixed points theories.7. 7. An equivalence between transfinite induction rule and iterated reflection schema over IΣn.8. 8. Derivation lengths of finite rewrite rules reducing under lexicographic path orders and multiply recursive functions.Each section can be read separately in principle. (shrink)

We study elementary second order extensions of the theoryID 1 of non-iterated inductive definitions and the theoryPA Ω of Peano arithmetic with ordinals. We determine the exact proof-theoretic strength of those extensions and their natural subsystems, and we relate them to subsystems of analysis with arithmetic comprehension plusΠ 1 1 comprehension and bar induction without set parameters.
