Abstract: We show that the stability requirement for a verification system yields the necessity of some sort of a reection mechanism. However, the traditional reflection rule based on the Gödel implicit provability predicate leads to a "reflection tower" of theories which cannot be formally verified. We found natural lower and upper bounds on a metatheory capable of establishing stability of a given verification system. The paper introduces an explicit reflection mechanism which can be verified... (Update)
