A modal perspective on monadic second
... This result is closely related to the fact that hybrid logic H(↓, E) is expressively complete for first-order logic (see [3] and the references therein). In fact, in the light of the results in [1, 2, 8], the result is not surprising. In order to establish that SOPML(E ) is expressively complete for ...

Lectures on Laws of Supply and Demand, Simple and Compound
... Definition A compound proposition is two or more propositions combined by a logical connective. Example 2 “ If Brian and Angela are not both happy then either Brian is not happy or Angela is not happy”. This is an example of a compound proposition. Logic is not concerned with determining the truth ...

Consider for example, the formula ∃x,y.P(x,y), which is certainly not valid. Thus F (∃x,y.P(x,y)) is satisfiable and because of the correctness of the tablea ...

The Development of Categorical Logic
... in a topos, the axiom of choice implies that the topos is Boolean. This means that, in IZF, the axiom of choice implies the law of excluded middle. This latter formulation of Diaconescu’s result was refined by Goodman and Myhill (1978) to show that, in IZF, the law of excluded middle follows from th ...

“Sometimes” and “Not Never” Revisited

Since Lamport’s arguments, all of which are based on this one comparison, do not apply in general, sweeping conclusions regarding branching versus linear time logic are not justified. W ...

Logic gate implementation and circuit minimization
... How the transistor works • If we set the input value on the control line to a 1 by applying a sufficient amount of voltage, the switch closes and the transistor enters the ON state. In this state, voltage coming from the in line, called the collector, goes directly to the out line, called the emitt ...

Curry–Howard correspondence
In programming language theory and proof theory, the Curry–Howard correspondence (also known as the Curry–Howard isomorphism or equivalence, or the proofs-as-programs and propositions- or formulae-as-types interpretation) is the direct relationship between computer programs and mathematical proofs. It is a generalization of a syntactic analogy between systems of formal logic and computational calculi that was first discovered by the American mathematician Haskell Curry and logician William Alvin Howard. It is the link between logic and computation that is usually attributed to Curry and Howard, although the idea is related to the operational interpretation of intuitionistic logic given in various formulations by L. E. J. Brouwer, Arend Heyting and Andrey Kolmogorov (see Brouwer–Heyting–Kolmogorov interpretation) and Stephen Kleene (see Realizability). The relationship has been extended to include category theory as the three-way Curry–Howard–Lambek correspondence.
