Structural Proof Theory

The basic idea of type theory is that proofs are functions that convert any proofs of the assumptions of a theorem into a proof of ...

Graphical Representation of Canonical Proof: Two case studies

For many logics, the presentation of proofs in a traditional formalism, such as Gentzen’s sequent calculus, introduces artificial syntactic structure called ...

Thus, S([ϕ]ψ ∧ [ϕ]χ) < S([ϕ](ψ ∧ χ)). Moreover, d([ϕ]ψ ∧ [ϕ]χ) = max{d(ϕ), d(ψ), d(χ)} = d([ϕ](ψ ∧ χ)) (This is similar ...
