We introduce layer systems for proving generalizations of the modularity of confluence for first-order rewrite systems. Layer systems specify how terms can be divided into layers. We establish structural conditions on those systems that…

Higher-order constructs extend the expressiveness of first-order (Constraint) Logic Programming ((C)LP) both syntactically and semantically. At the same time assertions have been in use for some time in (C)LP systems helping programmers…

The Univalent Foundations requires a logic that allows us to define structures on homotopy types, similar to how first-order logic with equality ($\text{FOL}_=$) allows us to define structures on sets. We develop the syntax, semantics and…

We report on the current status of our on-going project to develop well-behaved hypersequent calculi for intermediate predicate logics, such as the linearity axiom…

We show that if we enrich first order logic by allowing quantification over isomorphisms between definable ordered fields the resulting logic, L(Q_{Of}), is fully compact. In this logic, we can give standard compactness proofs of various…

As a substantial generalization of the technique for constructing canonical and the related nonlinear and q-deformed coherent states, we present here a method for constructing vector coherent states in the same spirit. These vector coherent…

We show that the notions of generic and Laver-generic supercompactness are first-order definable in the language of ZFC. This also holds for generic and Laver-generic (almost) hugeness as well as for generic versions of other large…

Conditional logics play an important role in recent attempts to formulate theories of default reasoning. This paper investigates first-order conditional logic. We show that, as for first-order probabilistic logic, it is important not to…

A bounded degree structure is either a relational structure all of whose relations are of bounded degree or a functional structure involving bijective functions only. In this paper, we revisit the complexity of the evaluation problem of not…

Cubical type theory is an extension of Martin-L\"of type theory recently proposed by Cohen, Coquand, M\"ortberg and the author which allows for direct manipulation of $n$-dimensional cubes and where Voevodsky's Univalence Axiom is provable.…

We present a labelled and non-wellfounded calculus for the bimodal provability logic CS. The system is obtained by modelling the Kripke-like semantics of this logic. As in arXiv:2309.00532, we enforce the second-order property of converse…

Although conventional logical systems based on logical calculi have been successfully used in mathematics and beyond, they have definite limitations that restrict their application in many cases. For instance, the principal condition for…

This paper proposes an alternative to standard first-order logic that seeks greater naturalness, generality, and semantic self-containment. The system removes the first-order restriction, avoids type hierarchies, and dispenses with external…

In this exposition, we get examples of what is called a "linear hyperdoctrine", based on categories of comodules indexed by coalgebras. This structures can model first order linear logic.
