Necessary and sufficient condition for Σ_n non-trivial hereditary Δ_n-conservativity
Develop a necessary and sufficient condition on a pair (T, U) of computable consistent extensions of Peano Arithmetic that is equivalent to the existence, for some n ≥ 1, of a Σ_n sentence φ that is simultaneously non-trivially hereditarily Δ_n-conservative over T and U; i.e., φ ∈ HCons(Δ_n, T) ∩ HCons(Δ_n, U) and φ ∉ Th(T) ∪ Th(U).

However, we could not also find a necessary and sufficient condition for (ii) (Problem \ref{Prob_D_ntH}).
