... Unfortunately for the overall coherence of Aristotle’s modal logic, counterexamples undermine the alleged validity of the convertibility of affirmative apodeictic propositions construed as de re necessary. I L conversion, critics contend (cf. Patterson [10]: 154), is invalid. For instance, assume th ...

Least and greatest fixed points in linear logic
... We are interested in (first-order) reasoning over (co)inductive specifications: arithmetic, various computational and logical systems, etc. This is provided for example by LINC, an extension of intuitionistic logic. We shall exhibit useful structure in derivations, even though the subformula propert ...

Justification logic with approximate conditional probabilities
... Our paper builds on previous work on probabilistic logics and non-monotonic reasoning. Logics with probability operators are important in artificial intelligence and computer science in general [14, 13, 28]. They are interpreted over Kripke-style models with probability measures over possible worlds ...

Martin-Löf`s Type Theory
... Modus ponens then corresponds to functional application. Tait [39] noticed the further analogy that removing a cut in a derivation corresponds to a reduction step of the combinator representing the proof. Howard [22] extended these ideas to first-order intuitionistic arithmetic. Another way to see t ...

Normal form results for default logic
... application of Proposition 2.6 shows that the resulting theory (D1 , W ) = ({r′ : r ∈ D}, W ) has precisely the same extensions as (D, W ). Next, again by Proposition 2.6 we can assume that every consequent γ of a default rule in D1 is in a conjunctive normal form. Then the repeated application of P ...
