Title
Natural factors of the Medvedev lattice capturing IPC
Abstract
Skvortsova showed that there is a factor of the Medvedev lattice which captures intuitionistic propositional logic (IPC). However, her factor is unnatural in the sense that it is constructed in an ad hoc manner. We present a more natural example of such a factor. We also show that the theory of every non-trivial factor of the Medvedev lattice is contained in Jankov's logic, the deductive closure of IPC plus the weak law of the excluded middle $${\neg p \vee \neg \neg p}$$ p p . This answers a question by Sorbi and Terwijn.
