Universality of Logic

Jan Woleński (2017)

Bulletin of the Section of Logic

Similarity:

This paper deals with the problem of universality property of logic. At first, this property is analyzed in the context of first-order logic. Three senses of the universality property are distinguished: universal applicability, topical neutrality and validity (truth in all models). All theses senses can be proved to be justified. The fourth understanding, namely the amount of expressive power, is connected with the criticism of the first-order thesis: first-order logic is the logic....

Intuitionistic logic considered as an extension of classical logic : some critical remarks

Javier Legris, Jorge A. Molina (2001)

Philosophia Scientiae

Similarity:

In this paper we analyze the consideration of intuitionistic logic as an extension of classical logic. This — at first sight surprising — point of view has been sustained explicitly by Jan Łukasiewicz on the basis of a mapping of classical propositional logic into intuitionistic propositional logic by Kurt Gödel in 1933. Simultaneously with Gödel, Gerhard Gentzen had proposed another mapping of Peano´s arithmetic into Heyting´s arithmetic. We shall discuss these mappings in connection...

Identity, Equality, Nameability and Completeness

María Manzano, Manuel Crescencio Moreno (2017)

Bulletin of the Section of Logic

Similarity:

This article is an extended promenade strolling along the winding roads of identity, equality, nameability and completeness, looking for places where they converge. We have distinguished between identity and equality; the first is a binary relation between objects while the second is a symbolic relation between terms. Owing to the central role the notion of identity plays in logic, you can be interested either in how to define it using other logical concepts or in the opposite scheme....
