An Algebraic View of Logic

نویسنده

چکیده

The standard semantics for classical logic states that each proposition stands for, or denotes, a truth value, either ⊤ or ⊥, according to the usual truth tables for each logical connective. According to this semantics, the categorical judgement P true means that P denotes ⊤, and the hypothetical judgement P1 true, . . . , Pn true ⊢ P true means that P denotes ⊤ whenever each Pi denotes ⊤. The hypothetical judgement induces an ordering relation among propositions defined by taking P ≤ Q to hold iff P true ⊢ Q true. (There is no loss of generality in restricting attention to a binary relation, because P1 true, . . . , Pn true ⊢ P true holds iff P1 ∧ · · · ∧Pn true ⊢ P true. ) This relation is a pre-order. This extends to a partial order on equivalence classes of propositions under mutual entailment. Specifically, define

AN ALGEBRAIC STRUCTURE FOR INTUITIONISTIC FUZZY LOGIC

In this paper we extend the notion of  degrees of membership and non-membership of intuitionistic fuzzy sets to lattices and  introduce a residuated lattice with appropriate operations to serve as semantics of intuitionistic fuzzy logic. It would be a step forward to find an algebraic counterpart for intuitionistic fuzzy logic. We give the main properties of the operations defined and prove som...

The concept of logic entropy on D-posets

In this paper, a new invariant called {it logic entropy} for dynamical systems on a D-poset is introduced. Also, the {it conditional logical entropy} is defined and then some of its properties are studied.  The invariance of the {it logic entropy} of a system  under isomorphism is proved. At the end,  the notion of an $ m $-generator of a dynamical system is introduced and a version of the Kolm...

Towards Algebraic Separation Logic

We present an algebraic approach to separation logic. In particular, we give algebraic characterisations for all constructs of separation logic like assertions and commands. The algebraic view does not only yield new insights on separation logic but also shortens proofs and enables the use of automated theorem provers for verifying properties at a more abstract level.

A general view of the algebraic semantics of Lukasiewicz logic with product

This paper aims to give a clear and comprehensive view of the relations between the various classes of MV-algebras with product operations. The algebraic hyerarchy, from groups to algebras, can be transported by Γ-functors in order to provide the algebraic semantics for conservative extensions of Łukasiewicz logic. The MV-algebraic tensor product allows us to complete the picture with categoric...

Algebraic Semantics for t-norm Based Fuzzy Logic

In this talk we present from an algebraic point of view the general framework of core and ∆-core fuzzy logics. We consider three types of completeness with respect to any semantics of linearly orderd algebras and we give useful algebraic characterizations of these completeness. Moreover we distinguish some special semantics for these logics and we survey the known completeness methods and resul...

Dynamical Properties of Logical Substitutions

Many kinds of algebraic structures have associated dual topological spaces, among others commutative rings with 1 (this being the paradigmatic example), various kinds of lattices, boolean algebras, C∗-algebras, . . . . These associations are functorial, and hence algebraic endomorphisms of the structures give rise to continuous selfmappings of the dual spaces, which can enjoy various dynamical ...
