That’s what (7) says; and what (7) says is false on this theory of possible worlds. Two sets that contain all the same qualitative sentences may fail to be qualitative ...

Kripke, A Priori Knowledge, Necessity and Contingency
... Since Kripke thinks that the two are totally different concepts, he wants to argue that the biconditional is false. Since this is a biconditional, it has two parts: 1. If X is necessary, then X is a priori This conditional seems intuitive; it seems to be the case that if something necessary is the c ...

Monadic Predicate Logic is Decidable
... Proof of Part 2 Making use of Part 1, associate with S a quantifier-free formula S’ which is satisfiable iff S is. As follows: Inductively associate a quantifier-free H’ with each subformula H of S, as follows: • If H is atomic: H’=H (no change!) • If H is a truth functional compound: H’=H • If H=E ...

methods of proof
... Suppose we want to prove that a statement p is true. Furthermore, suppose that we can find a contradiction q such that ¬p → q is true. Because q is false, but ¬p → q is true, we can conclude that ¬p is false, which means that p is true. How can we find a contradiction q that might help us prove that ...
