... This suggests that to prove a formula of the form ∀xφ, we can prove φ with some arbitrary but fresh variable x0 substituted for x. That is, we want to prove the formula φ[x0 /x]. On the previous slide, we used n as a fresh variable, but in our formal proofs, we adopt the convention of using subscri ...

Much of standard mathematics can be done within the framework of intuitionistic logic, but the task is very difficult, so mathematicians use methods of classical logic (as proofs by contradiction). However the philosophy behind intuitionistic logic is appealing for a computer scientist. For an intuiti ...
