Proof Theory for Propositional Logic

It starts with a puzzle raised by Descartes.1 Given that the overwhelming majority of sentences you hear and speak have never been spoken before and will never be spoken before, how do you under ...

Introduction to Modal and Temporal Logic
... Lemma 1 For any Kripke model hW, R, ϑi, any w ∈ W and any formula ϕ, either ϑ(w, ϕ) = t or else ϑ(w, ϕ) = f . Proof: Pick any Kripke model hW, R, ϑi, any w ∈ W , and any formula ϕ. Proceed by induction on the length l of ϕ. Base Case l = 1: If ϕ is an atomic formula p, either ϑ(w, p) = t or ϑ(w, p) ...
