Alessandro Padoa was an Italian mathematician and logician, a contributor to the school of Giuseppe Peano. He is remembered for a method for deciding whether, given some formal theory, a new primitive notion is truly independent of the other primitive notions.
There is an analogous problem in axiomatic theories, namely deciding whether a given axiom is independent of the other axioms.
