Abstract

Assume ZFC + "There is a weakly compact cardinal" is consistent. Then: (i) For every $S \subseteq \omega, \mathrm{ZFC} +$ "$S$ and the monadic theory of $\omega_2$ are recursive each in the other" is consistent; and (ii) ZFC + "The full second-order theory of $\omega_2$ is interpretable in the monadic theory of $\omega_2$" is consistent.
