Lecture 2: Proofs
نویسنده
چکیده
All of you must have proved lot of mathematical statements by now and have pretty good intuition about what proofs are. So we will take an informal approach of proofs. The ideas of rigorous and correct mathematical proofs will be shown through examples. A more formal approach can be taken through logic, a brief introduction to logic is given at the end of these course notes and is meant as an advanced reading.

Lecture Notes on Proofs & Arithmetic
Lecture 8 on Events & Delays discussed and developed two models for the ping pong ball whose control was a ping pong paddle. First an event-driven controller and then a time-triggered controller. Invariants have been identified in Lecture 8 but not proved. This lecture will study proofs. This lecture discusses: • What is a proof? • How does arithmetic happen in a proof? • Arithmetic hiding to w...
متن کاملA Refinement of the Lecture Hall Theorem
For n 1, let L n be the set of lecture hall partitions of length n, that is, the set of n-tuples of integers = (1 ; : : : ; n) satisfying 0 1 1 2 2 n n : Let de be the partition (d 1 =1e; : : : ; d n =ne), and let o(de) denote the number of its odd parts. We show that the identity X 2Ln q jj u jdej v o(de) = (1 + uvq)(1 + uvq 2) (1 + uvq n) (1 ? u 2 q n+1)(1 ? u 2 q n+2) (1 ? u 2 q 2n) (1) is e...
متن کاملFormal Security Proofs
The goal of the lecture is to present some aspects of formal security proofs of protocols. This is a wide area, and there is another lecture (by B. Banchet) on related topics. The idea is therefore to explain in depth one particular technique, that relies on deducibility constraints. We rely mainly on two introductory documents [8,14]. Actually, the current notes are the beginning of [8]. Here ...
متن کاملLecture Notes Spectral Theory
These lecture notes are based on my course from the summer semester 2015. I kept the numbering and the contents of the results presented in the lectures (except for minor corrections and improvements). Typically, the proofs and calculations in the notes are a bit shorter than those given in the lecture. Moreover, the drawings and many additional, mostly oral remarks from the lectures are omitte...
متن کاملProbabilistic Proof Systems Lecture Notes
Various types of probabilistic proof systems have played a central role in the development of computer science in the last decade. In these notes, we concentrate on three such proof systems | interactive proofs, zero-knowledge proofs, and probabilistic checkable proofs. Remark: These are lecture notes in the strict sense of the word. Surveys of mine on this subject can be obtained from URL http...
