Abstract

In this paper, we prove results concerning the existence of proper end extensions of arbitrary models of fragments of Peano arithmetic (PA). In particular, we give alternative proofs that concern (a) a result of Clote (Fundam Math 127(2):163–170, 1986); (Fundam Math 158(3):301–302, 1998), on the end extendability of arbitrary models of \(\Sigma _n\)-induction, for \(n{\ge } 2\), and (b) the fact that every model of \(\Sigma _1\)-induction has a proper end extension satisfying \(\Delta _0\)-induction; although this fact was not explicitly stated before, it follows by earlier results of Enayat and Wong (Ann Pure Appl Log 168:1247–1252, 2017) and Wong (Proc Am Math Soc 144:4021–4024, 2016).
