On the quantum circuit implementation of modus ponens [PDF]
The process of inference reflects the structure of propositions with assigned truth values, either true or false. Modus ponens is a fundamental form of inference that involves affirming the antecedent to affirm the consequent.

Generic Modal Cut Elimination Applied to Conditional Logics [PDF]
We develop a general criterion for cut elimination in sequent calculi for propositional modal logics, which rests on absorption of cut, contraction, weakening and inversion by the purely modal part of the rule system. Our criterion applies also to a wide

Two Sides of Modus Ponens [PDF]
McGee (1985) argues that it is sometimes reasonable to accept both x and x->(y->z) without accepting y->z, and that modus ponens is therefore invalid for natural language indicative conditionals.

Revisiting McGee’s Counterexample to Modus Ponens
In this paper, we provide a novel explanation of McGee’s (1985) alleged counterexample to Modus Ponens for indicative conditionals. Our strategy is to show that pragmatic phenomena interfere with intuitions concerning the acceptability of the inference ...

Research on intuitionistic fuzzy implications. Part 3 [PDF]
Continuing the research from [1,2], here we give the lists of the intuitionistic fuzzy implications, introduced in [2], that satisfy at least one of two forms of Modus Ponens (MP) – a standard and a new one, called "mixed", forms.

Fuzzy Inference Full Implication Method Based on Single Valued Neutrosophic t-Representable t-Norm
As a generalization of intuitionistic fuzzy sets, single-valued neutrosophic sets have certain advantages for solving indeterminate and inconsistent information. In this paper, we study the fuzzy inference full implication method based on a single-valued

What the Adoption Problem Does Not Show
Saul Kripke proposed a skeptical challenge that Romina Padró defended and popularized by the name of the Adoption Problem. The challenge is that, given a certain definition of adoption, there are some logical principles that cannot be adopted ...

Generalized Modus Tollens with Linguistic Modifiers for Inverse Approximate Reasoning [PDF]
Based on our previous researchs about generalized modus ponens (GMP) with linguistic modifiers for If … Then rules, this paper proposes new generalized modus tollens (GMT) inference rules with linguistic modifiers in linguistic many–valued ...

On the Use of Conjunctors With a Neutral Element in the Modus Ponens Inequality
The inference rule of Modus Ponens has been extensively investigated in the framework of approximate reasoning, especially for the case of t-norms. Recently, more general kinds of conjunctors have also been considered, like semi-copulas, copulas, and ...

The deduction theorem for strong propositional proof systems [PDF]
This paper focuses on the deduction theorem for propositional logic. We define and investigate different deduction properties and show that the presence of these deduction properties for strong proof systems is powerful enough to characterize the ...
