Predicate logic is an extension of propositional logic. Here we consider what is called first-order predicate logic, abbreviated FOL (sometimes abbreviated PL1, not to be confused with the programming ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Global properties of canonical derivability predicates (the standard example is Pr() in Peano Arithmetic) are studied here by means of a ...

The Modal Predicate Calculus gives rise to issues surrounding the Barcan formulas, their converses, and necessary existence. I examine these issues by means of the Quantified Argument Calculus (Quarc) ...

Abstract: We propose a logic-based approach for reasoning about (public-key infrastructure) PKI trust models. Our formalism uses the predicate calculus language to describe a PKI trust model with ...

Python package that provides an interface to work with classical propositional and first-order logic, based on my solutions to the textbook Mathematical Logic Through Python by Nisan and Gonczarowski ...

It is necessary to recapitulate that quantity (universal and particular) and quality (affirmative and negative) are understood to belong to the terms of propositions which is indeed the correct ...

While passing objects as arguments is a standard and familiar way to invoke methods, providing methods as arguments to other methods is less so. Nonetheless, we often must pass a method as a parameter ...

In this incredibly strange, unnerving moment in history, we are all engaged in weird little games of calculus. For me, tasked with looking after my elderly parents, a once simple decision has suddenly ...
