Kleene (1959) introduced restricted recursors R^ satisfying the recursion equations R^xy0z = xz and R^xyn′z = y(R^xynz), where z is a sequence of variables such that xz is of type 0. He showed that the 1-section of the functionals generated from 0, Sc, the K, S ...

... Duration Calculus (DC) was introduced by Zhou, Hoare and Ravn in 1991 as a logic to specify the requirements for real-time systems. DC has been used successfully in many case studies, see e.g. [ZZ94,YWZP94,HZ94,DW94,BHCZ94,XH95], [Dan98,ED99]. In [DW94], we have developed a method for designing a re ...

The conditional probability P (Q|K) is simply a ratio of two partition functions: P (Q|K) = Z(K ∪ {Q, 0})/Z(K), where Z(K ∪ {Q, 0}) is the partition function of K with Q added as a hard formula. The main idea in PTP is to compute the partition functi ...

... We relate the language of equilibrium logic to our bimodal language by means of a translation tr. The main clause of the translation is: tr(ϕ ⇒ ψ) = (tr(ϕ) → tr(ψ)) ∧ [T](tr(ϕ) → tr(ψ)) We prove that ϕ has a HT model if and only if its translation tr(ϕ) is satisfiable in MEM. This paves the way to t ...

First-order logic

First-order logic is a formal system used in mathematics, philosophy, linguistics, and computer science. It is also known as first-order predicate calculus, the lower predicate calculus, quantification theory, and predicate logic. First-order logic uses quantified variables over (non-logical) objects. This distinguishes it from propositional logic which does not use quantifiers.A theory about some topic is usually first-order logic together with a specified domain of discourse over which the quantified variables range, finitely many functions which map from that domain into it, finitely many predicates defined on that domain, and a recursive set of axioms which are believed to hold for those things. Sometimes ""theory"" is understood in a more formal sense, which is just a set of sentences in first-order logic.The adjective ""first-order"" distinguishes first-order logic from higher-order logic in which there are predicates having predicates or functions as arguments, or in which one or both of predicate quantifiers or function quantifiers are permitted. In first-order theories, predicates are often associated with sets. In interpreted higher-order theories, predicates may be interpreted as sets of sets.There are many deductive systems for first-order logic that are sound (all provable statements are true in all models) and complete (all statements which are true in all models are provable). Although the logical consequence relation is only semidecidable, much progress has been made in automated theorem proving in first-order logic. First-order logic also satisfies several metalogical theorems that make it amenable to analysis in proof theory, such as the Löwenheim–Skolem theorem and the compactness theorem.First-order logic is the standard for the formalization of mathematics into axioms and is studied in the foundations of mathematics. Mathematical theories, such as number theory and set theory, have been formalized into first-order axiom schemas such as Peano arithmetic and Zermelo–Fraenkel set theory (ZF) respectively.No first-order theory, however, has the strength to describe uniquely a structure with an infinite domain, such as the natural numbers or the real line. A uniquely describing, i.e. categorical, axiom system for such a structure can be obtained in stronger logics such as second-order logic.For a history of first-order logic and how it came to dominate formal logic, see José Ferreirós (2001).
