A Proof Theory for Generic Judgments
... an assumption (that is, on the left of the sequent arrow) is essentially equated to having instead all instances Bt for terms t of type τ . There are cases (one is considered in more detail in Section 6) where we would like to make inferences from an assumption of the form ∀τ x.Bx that holds indepen ...

The notation FOm [<] means the set of formulae where at most m distinct variables occur. By definition, FOm [<] is close ...

... A proposition (p, q, r, …) is simply a statement (i.e., a declarative sentence) with a definite meaning, having a truth value that’s either true (T) or false (F) (never both, neither, or somewhere in between). (However, you might not know the actual truth value, and it might be situation-dependent.) ...

CHAPTER 7 GENERAL PROOF SYSTEMS 1 Introduction

We choose as axioms (finite set) the statements we for sure want to be universally true ...
