We present a logical framework for formalizing connections between finitary combinatorics and measure theory or ergodic theory that have appeared various places throughout the literature. We develop the basic syntax and semantics of this…

We study abstract versions of G\"odel's second incompleteness theorem and formulate generalizations of L\"ob's derivability conditions that work for logics weaker than the classical one. We isolate the role of contraction rule in G\"odel's…

G\"odel's first and second incompleteness theorems are corner stones of modern mathematics. In this article we present a new proof of these theorems for ZFC and theories containing ZFC, using Chaitin's incompleteness theorem and a very…

There is an increasing interest in applying recent advances in AI to automated reasoning, as it may provide useful heuristics in reasoning over formalisms in first-order, second-order, or even meta-logics. To facilitate this research, we…

This paper studies a first-order expansion of a combination C+J of intuitionistic and classical propositional logic, which was studied by Humberstone (1979) and del Cerro and Herzig (1996), from a proof-theoretic viewpoint. While C+J has…

In recent years, G\"odel's ontological proof and variations of it were formalized and analyzed with automated tools in various ways. We supplement these analyses with a modeling in an automated environment based on first-order logic…

Lindstr\"om's Theorem characterizes first order logic as the maximal logic satisfying the Compactness Theorem and the Downward L\"owenheim-Skolem Theorem. If we do not assume that logics are closed under negation, there is an obvious…

Standpoint extensions of knowledge representation formalisms have been recently introduced as a means to incorporate multi-perspective modelling and reasoning through modal operators that attribute pieces of knowledge to specific entities…

We extend first-order logic to include variadic function symbols, and prove a substitution lemma. Two applications are given: one to bounded quantifier elimination and one to the definability of certain Borel sets.

This thesis is mainly about extensions of the first-order logic axiomatization of special relativity introduced by Andr\'eka, Madar\'asz and N\'emeti. These extensions include extension to accelerated observers, relativistic dynamics and…

Succinctness is a natural measure for comparing the strength of different logics. Intuitively, a logic L_1 is more succinct than another logic L_2 if all properties that can be expressed in L_2 can be expressed in L_1 by formulas of…

In these notes we propose a new, simpler proof system for first-order matching logic with application and definedness. The new proof system is inspired by Tarski's axiomatization for first order-logic with equality (simplified by Kalish and…

Similarity in formal argumentation has recently gained attention due to its significance in problems such as argument aggregation in semantics and enthymeme decoding. While existing approaches focus on propositional logic, we address the…

Nested words are a structured model of execution paths in procedural programs, reflecting their call and return nesting structure. Finite nested words also capture the structure of parse trees and other tree-structured data, such as XML. We…

The primary purpose of this article is to show that a certain natural set of axioms yields a completeness result for continuous first-order logic. In particular, we show that in continuous first-order logic a set of formulae is (completely)…

It is well-known that extending the Hilbert axiomatic system for first-order intuitionistic logic with an exclusion operator, that is dual to implication, collapses the domains of models into a constant domain. This makes it an interesting…
