wkl₀, or weak König's lemma, is a principle in reverse mathematics stating that every infinite binary tree has an infinite path. This principle serves as a key example of a statement that is not provable in weaker systems of arithmetic, yet can be proved in stronger systems. wkl₀ demonstrates how certain mathematical concepts can be classified based on their proof-theoretic strength and how they fit within the landscape of reverse mathematics.
congrats on reading the definition of wkl₀. now let's actually learn it.
