Logic is the study of argument. In the West, Aristotle is credited with codifying its rules but modern logic was the child of Gottlob Frege who's program of logicism attempted to reduce mathematics to ...
Logic and logical thinking are present and play an important role in most of the disciplines at the university level but in different ways. In our research, which has been ongoing for several years, ...
Propositional logic includes sentence letters (A, B, C, etc), which are assigned truth values, and logical connectives (AND, OR, NOT, IMPLICATION, EQUIVALENCE), but not quantifiers. This is also ...
In this lecture we complete our discussion of Dyckhoff's contraction free sequent calculus and the decision procedure for intuitionistic propositional logic it generates. We then discuss how to define ...
Working memory involvement in propositional reasoning was explored after different kinds of training. The training conditions aimed to reduce the impact of non-analytic heuristics and to enhance ...
We begin with another example: the encoding of validity for quantified boolean formulas (QBF) in linear logic. This yields the PSPACE-hardness of the decision problem for MALL (multiplicative, ...
Words evoke thoughts and emotions. They are the reason we feel happy, agreeable, uncomfortable, confused or upset. But, why is that? This is because words create statements. Statements contain ...
