comments on the logic of constructible falsity (strong negation)
... Görnemann’s result suggests the conjecture that a classical model theory for the logic I have described may be obtained by allowing the domain to “grow with time”. This is in fact true. We may define a Nelson model structure as a triple (K, R, D), where K is a non-empty set of “stages of investigat ...
