Overview of proposition and predicate logic Introduction
... Some technical names for this form of “follows from” are entailment, semantic consequence. Formulated somewhat sloppy, Σ |= ϕ says that in any world where the theory Σ holds, ϕ must also hold. Remark. The same remark as with substitution applies for the definition of semantics: for humans the meanin ...

On the other hand if the pair (M, N ) is recursively saturated then SSy(M, N ) = SSy(M ). Note that SSy(M ) can ...

If we can prove more classically than intuitionistically, we know more about a statement ϕ if we know it is intuitionistically valid than if it is (merely) classically valid. The particular utility of this “more that we know” became apparent with the rise of computers and th ...

The motivation for relaxing the UNA is to make equilibrium logic more flexible for certain kinds of applications. For i ...

Subintuitionistic Logics with Kripke Semantics
... G. Corsi, in [1], introduced sublogics of intuitionistic propositional logic IPC which are characterized by classes of Kripke models in which no assumption of truth preservation is made, and proved strong completeness for those systems. Her basic system was called F. G. Restall [4] made a similar st ...

Potentially infinite sets are finite, but they allow arbitrary finite enlargements. These enlargements can be rep ...
