  • Exploring Negation, Modality and Proof

    6th Asian Workshop on Philosophical Logic

    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
    This book brings together contributions from philosophers interested in logic and logicians with a philosophical orientation to address a variety of logical and philosophical topics of current interest, including modal logic, intuitionistic logic, relevant logic, substructural logic, many-value logic, formal semantics, proof theory, and paradox. In particular, it provides the state of the art in ... Read more

  • Proof Theory and Algebra in Logic

    by Hiroakira Ono ...
    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
    This book offers a concise introduction to both proof-theory and algebraic methods, the core of the syntactic and semantic study of logic respectively. The importance of combining these two has been increasingly recognized in recent years. It highlights the contrasts between the deep, concrete results using the former and the general, abstract ones using the latter. Covering modal logics, many ... Read more

  • Knowledge, Proof and Dynamics

    The Fourth Asian Workshop on Philosophical Logic

    Series series Springer Nature Proceedings excluding Computer Science
    This volume gathers selected papers presented at the Fourth Asian Workshop on Philosophical Logic, held in Beijing in October 2018. The contributions cover a wide variety of topics in modal logic (epistemic logic, temporal logic and dynamic logic), proof theory, algebraic logic, game logics, and philosophical foundations of logic. They also reflect the interdisciplinary nature of logic – a subject ... Read more

  • Residuated Lattices: An Algebraic Glimpse at Substructural Logics

    Series Book 151 - Studies in Logic and the Foundations of Mathematics
    The book is meant to serve two purposes. The first and more obvious one is to present state of the art results in algebraic research into residuated structures related to substructural logics. The second, less obvious but equally important, is to provide a reasonably gentle introduction to algebraic logic. At the beginning, the second objective is predominant. Thus, in the first few chapters the ... Read more

  • Conditionals and Modularity in General Logics

    Series series Computer Science (R0)
    This text centers around three main subjects. The first is the concept of modularity and independence in classical logic and nonmonotonic and other nonclassical logic, and the consequences on syntactic and semantical interpolation and language change. In particular, we will show the connection between interpolation for nonmonotonic logic and manipulation of an abstract notion of size. Modularity ... Read more

  • A New Perspective on Nonmonotonic Logics

    Series series Computer Science (R0)
    In this book the authors present new results on interpolation for nonmonotonic logics, abstract (function) independence, the Talmudic Kal Vachomer rule, and an equational solution of contrary-to-duty obligations. The chapter on formal construction is the conceptual core of the book, where the authors combine the ideas of several types of nonmonotonic logics and their analysis of 'natural' concepts ...

  • Mathematics and the Roots of Postmodern Thought

    This is a charming and insightful contribution to an understanding of the "Science Wars" between postmodernist humanism and science, driving toward a resolution of the mutual misunderstanding that has driven the controversy. It traces the root of postmodern theory to a debate on the foundations of mathematics early in the 20th century, then compares developments in mathematics to what took place ... Read more

  • One Hundred Prisoners and a Light Bulb

    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    A group of 100 prisoners, all together in the prison dining area, are told that they will be all put in isolation cells and then will be interrogated one by one in a room containing a light with an on/off switch. The prisoners may communicate with one another by toggling the light switch (and that is the only way in which they can communicate). The light is initially switched off. There is no ... Read more
