... Quantifiers are applied following a left to right precedence. That is, each quantifier applies to the statement to its right. Thus ∀ x, ∃y, P( x, y) asserts that for each x, it is true that there exists a y, which may depend on x, for which P( x, y) is true. On the other hand ∃ x, ∀y, P( x, y) asser ...

... Metatheory of CPL A big question is, “Why do we bother with proof theory?” After all, its principal concepts – axiom, theorem, deduction, proof – have no intuitive meaning there. What’s the point? Suppose we could show that for each of these uninterpreted properties of CPL’s proof theory theory is a ...

Note that the “circumstances“ under which a formula is, or is not, true (see the 1st lesson, Definition 1) are in FOL modelled by interpretations (of predicates and functional symbols ...

Thus, we see that the inductively proved statement holds even in this case. What the infinite formula D breaks is the second part, which, from the existen ...
