In the realm of computational complexity theory and logic, Kurt Gödel made significant contributions to the understanding of the limitations of formal systems. His groundbreaking work on the incompleteness theorem demonstrated that there are inherent limitations in any formal system, such as number theory, that prevent it from proving all true statements. Gödel's encoding of
