Qualitative spatial models based on Goodman-style mereology and pseudo-topology often pose problems for advanced geometric reasoning, as they lack true Euclidean geometry and fully developed topological spaces. We address this issue by…
Euclid's reasoning is essentially constructive. Tarski's elegant and concise first-order theory of Euclidean geometry, on the other hand, is essentially non-constructive, even if we restrict attention (as we do here) to the theory with…
In 1936, Stanislaw Ja\'skowski gave a construction of an interesting sequence of what he called "matrices", which we would today call "finite Heyting Algebras". He then gave a very brief sketch of a proof that if a propositional formula…
We prove an open mapping theorem for the topological spaces dual to finitely presented Heyting algebras. This yields in particular a short, self-contained semantic proof of the uniform interpolation theorem for intuitionistic propositional…
It is shown that propositional intuitionistic logic is the maximal (with respect to expressive power) abstract logic satisfying a certain topological property reminiscent of compactness, the Tarski union property and preservation under…
By contrast wih $\mathsf{S4}$, the analysis of local tabularity above $\mathsf{IPC}$ has provided a difficult challenge. This paper studies a strengthening of local tabularity -- \textit{uniform local tabularity} -- where one demands that…
We extend the main result of (G. Badia and G. Olkhovikov. A Lindstr\"om theorem for intuitionistic propositional logic. Notre Dame Journal of Formal Logic, 61 (1): 11--30 (2020)) to the first-order intuitionistic logic (with and without…
The Knaster-Tarski theorem, also known as Tarski's theorem, guarantees that every monotone function defined on a complete lattice has a fixed point. We analyze the query complexity of finding such a fixed point on the $k$-dimensional grid…
A classical Theorem of Alexandrov states that the map associating its boundary to a convex polyhdedron of the 3-dimensional Euclidean space is a bijection from the set of convex polyhdedron up to congruence to the set of isometry classes of…
This work is a mathematician's attempt to understand intuitionistic logic. It can be read in two ways: as a research paper interspersed with lengthy digressions into rethinking of standard material; or as an elementary (but highly…
In previous work, the second author introduced a topology, for spaces of irreducible representations, that reduces to the classical Zariski topology over commutative rings but provides a proper refinement in various noncommutative settings.…
Polyhedral semantics is a recently introduced branch of spatial modal logic, in which modal formulas are interpreted as piecewise linear subsets of an Euclidean space. Polyhedral semantics for the basic modal language has already been well…
A framework is developed to describe the Zariski topologies on the prime and primitive spectra of a quantum algebra $A$ in terms of the (known) topologies on strata of these spaces and maps between the collections of closed sets of…
The Tarskian classical relevant logic TR arises from Tarski's work on the foundations of the calculus of relations and on first-order logic restricted to finitely many variables, presented by Tarski and Givant their book, A Formalization of…
Tarski's relevance logic is defined and shown to contain many formulas and derived rules of inference. The definition arises from Tarski's work on first-order logic restricted to finitely many variables. It is a relevance logic because it…
Let R be an associative ring with identity. We study an elementary generalization of the classical Zariski topology, applied to the set of isomorphism classes of simple left R-modules (or, more generally, simple objects in a complete…
In this paper we give a new proof for the completeness of infinite valued propositional \L ukasiewicz logic introduced by \L ukasiewicz and Tarski in 1930. Our approach employs a Hilbert-style proof that relies on the concept of maximal…
We consider the quantifier-free languages, Bc and Bc0, obtained by augmenting the signature of Boolean algebras with a unary predicate representing, respectively, the property of being connected, and the property of having a connected…
A logic is said to admit an equational completeness theorem when it can be interpreted into the equational consequence relative to some class of algebras. We characterize logics admitting an equational completeness theorem that are either…
The first part of the paper is a brief overview of Hindman's finite sums theorem, its prehistory and a few of its further generalizations, and a modern technique used in proving these and similar results, which is based on idempotent…
