Natural deduction for predicate logic
... In the next module, we will describe the semantics of predicate logic, and discuss soundness and completeness without proof. Still to come are other proof systems for predicate logic, and a discussion of how to ensure that specific mathematical situations (such as number theory or set theory) are pr ...

Formal logic
... logical arguments in which, starting from two premises, a conclusion is reached. For example, given that There are horses in Spain. All horses are mammals. it can be inferred that There are mammals in Spain. Of course, if instead of the second premise we had the weaker one Some horses are mammals. w ...

... Comparison with earlier complete axiomatizations As mentioned in Sec. 1, a number of complete axiomatizations of C have been given [13, 2, 1, 11, 9]. All of them are similar in nature to the following one, which we take from [9]. Begin with Schematic S5 (see Table 2). Instead of adding inference ru ...

CHAPTER 5 SOME EXTENSIONAL SEMANTICS

He was the first to define a 3- valued semantics for a language L¬,∩,∪,⇒ of classical logic, and called it a three valued logic for short. He left the ...

The semantics of predicate logic
... Readings: Section 2.4, 2.5, 2.6. In this module, we will precisely define the semantic interpretation of formulas in our predicate logic. In propositional logic, every formula had a fixed, finite number of models (interpretations); this is not the case in predicate logic. As a consequence, we must t ...

If the same symbol is used with multiple arities, the uses are independent (so f2 would notate distinct functions in f2 (v1 ) versus f2 (v1 , v2 )). – An expression is a composition of function symbols and variable symbols, for example f1 (f1 (v1 )). ...
