Logical Consequence for Nominalists

open access: yesTheoria, 2009
It is often claimed that nominalistic programmes to reconstruct mathematics fail, since they will at some point involve the notion of logical consequence which is unavailable to the nominalist. In this paper we use an idea of Goodman and Quine to develop

On the Completeness of Spider Diagrams Augmented with Constants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Diagrammatic reasoning can be described formally by a number of diagrammatic logics; spider diagrams are one of these, and are used for expressing logical statements about set membership and containment. Here, existing work on spider diagrams is extended

Hierarchical logical consequence [PDF]

open access: yesLogic Journal of IGPL, 2010
The modern view of logical reasoning as modeled by a consequence operator (instead of simply by a set of theorems) has allowed for huge developments in the study of logic as an abstract discipline. Still, it is unable to explain why it is often the case that the same designation is used, in an ambiguous way, to describe several distinct modes of ...

Some consequence relations on propositional formulas [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Journal of Electrical Engineering, 2011
Consequence relations on propositional formulas are binary relations on propositional formulas that represent certain types of entailment - formal or semi-formal derivation of conclusion from a certain set of premises.

Consequences and Design in General and Transcendental Logic [PDF]

open access: yesКантовский сборник, 2018
In this article, I consider Kant’s dichotomy between general and transcendental logic in light of a retrospective reconstruction of two approaches originating in 14th century scholasticism that are used to demarcate formal and material consequences.

Modal Ω-Logic: Automata, Neo-Logicism, and Set-Theoretic Realism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
This essay examines the philosophical significance of $\Omega$-logic in Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory with choice (ZFC). The duality between coalgebra and algebra permits Boolean-valued algebraic models of ZFC to be interpreted as coalgebras.

Locating Logical Necessity in Models or the Nature of Situations

open access: yesProblemos
Logical necessity is a pivotal notion in accounting for logical consequence, while the source of logical necessity is not widely discussed. In this article I bring to attention one peculiar phenomenon that not only the model-theoretic tradition, but ...

Logical Consequence and the Theory of Games

open access: yesPhilosophia Scientiæ, 2004
Logical notions of consequence have frequently been related to game-theoretical solution concepts. The correspondence between a formula being classically valid and the existence of a winning strategy for a player in a related two-person game, has been ...

Sharing a Library between Proof Assistants: Reaching out to the HOL Family [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We observe today a large diversity of proof systems. This diversity has the negative consequence that a lot of theorems are proved many times. Unlike programming languages, it is difficult for these systems to co-operate because they do not implement the
