Deep Sequent Systems for Modal Logic
Deep Sequent Systems for Modal Logic

... Labelled systems are formulated in a hybrid language which not only contains modalities but also variables and an accessibility relation. There are some concerns about incorporating the semantics into the syntax of a proof system in this way. Avron discusses them in [1], for example. However, even w ...

... life. A less common way to represent a number is the so called Cantor expansion. Often presented as exercises in discrete math and computer science courses [8.2, 8.5], this system uses factorials rather than exponentials as the basis for the representation. It can be shown that the expansion is uniq ...

Then the indicated irreducibility follows from a stronger statement which is proved by Diamond and Kramer in [8]: Let I be an inertia subgroup of Gal(Q/Q) for the prime 2; then the action of I on E[l] is irreducible if l ≥ 3. Since the proof of this statement is quite elementary, we ...

Mathematical proof



In mathematics, a proof is a deductive argument for a mathematical statement. In the argument, other previously established statements, such as theorems, can be used. In principle, a proof can be traced back to self-evident or assumed statements, known as axioms. Proofs are examples of deductive reasoning and are distinguished from inductive or empirical arguments; a proof must demonstrate that a statement is always true (occasionally by listing all possible cases and showing that it holds in each), rather than enumerate many confirmatory cases. An unproved proposition that is believed true is known as a conjecture.Proofs employ logic but usually include some amount of natural language which usually admits some ambiguity. In fact, the vast majority of proofs in written mathematics can be considered as applications of rigorous informal logic. Purely formal proofs, written in symbolic language instead of natural language, are considered in proof theory. The distinction between formal and informal proofs has led to much examination of current and historical mathematical practice, quasi-empiricism in mathematics, and so-called folk mathematics (in both senses of that term). The philosophy of mathematics is concerned with the role of language and logic in proofs, and mathematics as a language.
