چکیده

Most current research on automated theorem proving is concerned with proving theorems of first-order logic. We discuss two examples which illustrate the advantages of using higher-order logic in certain contexts. For some purposes type theory is a much more convenient vehicle for formalizing mathematics than axiomatic set theory. Even theorems of first-order logic can sometimes be proven more expeditiously in higher-order logic than in first-order logic. We also note the need to develop automatic theorem-proving methods which may produce proofs which do not have the subformula property.

TIME-VARYING FUZZY SETS BASED ON A GAUSSIAN MEMBERSHIP FUNCTIONS FOR DEVELOPING FUZZY CONTROLLER

The paper presents a novel type of fuzzy sets, called time-Varying Fuzzy Sets (VFS). These fuzzy sets are based on the Gaussian membership functions, they are depended on the error and they are characterized by the displacement of the kernels to both right and left side of the universe of discourse, the two extremes kernels of the universe are fixed for all time. In this work we focus only on t...

Fixed points for total asymptotically nonexpansive mappings in a new version of bead ‎space‎

The notion of a bead metric space is defined as a nice generalization of the uniformly convex normed space such as $CAT(0)$ space, where the curvature is bounded from above by zero. In fact, the bead spaces themselves can be considered in particular as natural extensions of convex sets in uniformly convex spaces and normed bead spaces are identical with uniformly convex spaces. In this paper, w...

Fixed points of generalized $alpha$-Meir-Keeler type contractions and Meir-Keeler contractions through rational expression in $b$-metric-like spaces

In this paper, we first introduce some types of generalized $alpha$-Meir-Keeler contractions in $b$-metric-like spaces and then we establish some fixed point results for these types of contractions. Also, we present a new fixed point theorem for a Meir-Keeler contraction through rational expression. Finally, we give some examples to illustrate the usability of the obtained results.

A New Method for Numerical Solution of Checkerboard Fields

for a standard checkerboard of conductivity λg and λw. The explicit solution of the corresponding temperature-field was later found by Berdichevskii [1]. In particular he found that the heat-flux is infinitely high in the corners of the squares. Subsequently, explicit solutions for rectangular and triangular checkerboards were found in [17, 19, 20]. Mortola and Steffé [18] presented in 1985 an ...

Some points on generalized open sets

The paper is an attempt to represent a study of limit points, boundary points, exterior points, border, interior points and closure points in the common generalized topological space. This paper takes a look at the possibilities of an extended topological space and it also considers the new characterizations of dense set.
