Interpretability formalized
... For another occurrence of interpretations, we can think of translations of classical propositional calculus into intuitionistic propositional calculus. In this thesis, however, we will only consider interpretations between first order theories. The notion of interpretability that we shall work with ...

Graphical Representation of Canonical Proof: Two case studies
... forms of proofs in this formalism are free of bureaucracy, and also canonical from a semantic perspective: for a suitable notion of normal form, they correspond one–to–one with morphisms in free Cartesian closed categories (see e.g. [69]). Another example are Girard’s proof nets for multiplicative l ...

A Transition to Advanced Mathematics
... statement is always true, so while the statement may be true for many (even infinitely many) examples, we would never know whether another example might show the statement to be false. By studying examples, we might conclude that the statement “x 2 − 3x + 43 is a prime number” is true for all positi ...
