Proposition of Two Cipher Structures

2010
In this paper, we have proposed two block cipher structures which can be considered as variants of SP-network and Generalized Feistel structure respectively. Our main idea is to improve the diffusion effect when mixing all the sub-blocks together in each round.

A Theory of Structured Propositions

Philosophical Review, 2023
This paper argues that the theory of structured propositions is not undermined by the Russell-Myhill paradox. I develop a theory of structured propositions in which the Russell-Myhill paradox doesn’t arise: the theory does not involve ramification or compromises to the underlying logic, but rather rejects common assumptions, encoded in the notation of ...

Why the tuple theory of structured propositions isn't a theory of structured propositions

Philosophia, 2003
Much is at stake. The notion of structured propositions – in particular structured singular propositions – is a cornerstone of the theory of direct reference, yet if the intuitive notion of structured proposition cannot possibly translate into ordered ntuples, as direct reference theory does, then that theory finds itself without a semantics in one of ...

Compositionality and Structured Propositions

Thought: A Journal of Philosophy, 2013
In this article, we evaluate the Compositionality Argument for structured propositions. This argument hinges on two seemingly innocuous and widely accepted premises: the Principle of Semantic Compositionality and Propositionalism (the thesis that sentential semantic values are propositions).

Propositional Structure and Propositional Implication

1982
In this chapter we deepen our characterization of propositions and study the basic structures of propositional implication. Here is, then, a short, but slightly unconventional (because more philosophical), introduction to standard two-valued logic. We need this introduction, not only for completeness, given that propositions are contents of practical ...

The Structure of the Proposition and the Fact

Philosophy of Science, 1936
For the most part, this paper is an attempt to understand such a statement as this: “The proposition represents the fact by virtue of a structural identity between it and the fact.” The statement is a familiar and important one in modern philosophy. It is, for example, one of the tenets of Logical Positivism.

Attitudes and Structured Propositions

2023
AbstractA number of arguments for a fine-grained individuation of propositions are considered in the context of the formal language introduced in the previous chapter, and shown not to be compelling. The main arguments involve ascriptions of propositional attitudes such as belief.

A Defence of Structured Propositions

Pacific Philosophical Quarterly
Propositions are about things, i.e., for each proposition, there are some things that it is about. Propositions also represent, i.e., each proposition represents some thing or things to be some way. There is a debate about whether propositions are structured and have the things that they are about as their constituents, or simple. I argue that they are

Structured propositions and the logical form of predication

Synthese, 2017
Jeffrey King, Scott Soames, and others have recently challenged the familiar identification of a Russellian proposition, such as the proposition that Brutus stabbed Caesar, with an ordered sequence constructed out of objects, properties, and relations.

Some structure results for propositional calculi

Journal of Symbolic Logic, 1965
1. Introduction. Since this paper is a written version of one presented as a survey lecture at a meeting of the Association for Symbolic Logic, its form and content have been essentially determined by the form and content of that lecture, and these latter were themselves considerably influenced by a deliberate attempt to avoid the lecture consisting ...
