Logic: Introduction - Department of information engineering and
... Modern Logic teaches us that one claim is a logical consequence of another if there is no way the latter could be true without the former also being true. It is also used to disconfirm a theory if a particular claim is a logical consequence of a theory, and we discover that the claim is false, then ...

A Resolution Method for Modal Logic S5
... The normal modal logic S5 is among the most studied modal logics. It is well-known that it can be considered as an epistemic logic in the sense that it is suitable for representing and reasoning about the knowledge of an agent [8]. In [12], Ladner proved that the complexity of the satisfiability pro ...

Natural deduction for predicate logic
... This suggests that to prove a formula of the form ∀xφ, we can prove φ with some arbitrary but fresh variable x0 substituted for x. That is, we want to prove the formula φ[x0 /x]. On the previous slide, we used n as a fresh variable, but in our formal proofs, we adopt the convention of using subscri ...
