... A derivation in PDE is a series of sentences of PLE, each of which is either an assumption or is obtained from previous sentences by one of the rules of PDE. A sentence P of PLE is derivable in PDE from a set Γ of sentences of PLE, written S ` P, iff there exists a derivation in PDE in which all the ...
