− | A Scott set is a set of sets of natural numbers $\mathfrak X$ such that $(\omega, {\mathfrak X})\models {\sf WKL}_0$, Assume $\lnot{\sf CH}$. Is every Scott set the standard system of a nonstandard model of PA?

| | | |
− | The origins of the problem goes back the paper of Scott, where it is shown that the answer is positive for countable sets $\mathfrak X$.

| |
− | Knight and Nadel, and independently Ehrenfeucht (unpublished), gave positive answer for $\mathfrak X$ of cardinality $\aleph_1$.

| |
− | Jim Schmerl gave positive answer for arithmetic closures of sets of (arithmetic) Cohen generics of any cardinality.
