... In this section we introduce a variant of classical word automata called ST-NFA’s which are a convenient formalism for generating signals. We recall that a non-deterministic finite state automaton (NFA) over an alphabet A is a structure A = (Q , S , δ, F ) where Q is a finite set of states, S is the ...

... (a closed path that passes through each vertex of the graph exactly once). The ASP program below should be combined with definitions of the predicates vertex and edge, as in the previous example. It uses the predicate in to express that an edge belongs to the path; we assume that 0 is one of the ver ...

Aristotle, Boole, and Categories
... Aristotle’s first system had only two axioms, AAA-1 and EAE-1, mnemonically named Barbara and Celarent, which he viewed as self-evident and therefore not in need of proof. He derived his remaining syllogisms via a number of rules based on the Square of Opposition [9], including the problematic notio ...

Truth in the limit
... We shown that the first order logic is correct and complete inference tool for sl–semantics. Unfortunately, interesting theories of potentially infinite domains usually are not axiomatizable in the standard sense. However this is true also for classical semantics which allows actually infinite model ...

... Formalism and certification 2.8. To describe what logic is, we might begin by contrasting formal and informal proofs. A formal proof is a purely computational derivation using abstract symbols such as ∨, ∧, ¬, →, `, ∀, ∃, ⇒, =, ∈, ⊆. All steps must be justified; nothing is taken for granted. Complet ...

Imagining and critical reflection in autobiography: An odd couple in
... Imagining and insight may be seen as synonymous; however, imagining differs from fantasy. Imagining may be understood as a form of mental activity which is related to, but independent of other forms, such as critical thinking. Imagining-that and imagining-how are two aspects of this activity. Imagin ...

... • ∃x ∈ U (P (x)). This existential quantifier means that there exists a (or there is at least one) value of x in U for which P (x) is true. Example: ∃x ∈ Z (x > 5). If the fixed set U is understood, it may be omitted from the quantifier. For example, assuming that the fixed set is Z, then the above ...

The inclusive disjunction is true when one or both propositions are true, since in this case p or q means p or q, or both p and q. i.e. p V q = p or q or both p and q The e ...
