We present a simpler way than usual to deduce the completeness theorem for the second-oder classical logic from the first-order one. We also extend our method to the case of second-order intuitionistic logic.
Herbrand's theorem is one of the most fundamental insights in logic. From the syntactic point of view it suggests a compact representation of proofs in classical first- and higher-order logic by recording the information which instances…
We introduce proper display calculi for intuitionistic, bi-intuitionistic and classical linear logics with exponentials, which are sound, complete, conservative, and enjoy cut-elimination and subformula property. Based on the same design,…
The purpose of this paper is to introduce a bi-intuitionistic sequent calculus and to give proofs of admissibility for its structural rules. The calculus I will present, called SC2Int, is a sequent calculus for the bi-intuitionistic logic…
We show that a hypersimple unidimensional theory that has a club of reducts, in the partial order of all countable reducts, that are coordinatized in finite rank, is supersimple.
Computing modular coincidences can show whether a given substitution system, which is supported on a point lattice in R^d, consists of model sets or not. We prove the computatibility of this problem and determine an upper bound for the…
Infinitary and cyclic proof systems are proof systems for logical formulas with fixed-point operators or inductive definitions. A cyclic proof system is a restriction of the corresponding infinitary proof system. Hence, these proof systems…
In this paper we present tableau proof systems for various justification logics. We show that the tableau systems are sound and complete with respect to Mkrtychev models. In order to prove the completeness of the tableaux, we give a…
Proof search has been used to specify a wide range of computation systems. In order to build a framework for reasoning about such specifications, we make use of a sequent calculus involving induction and co-induction. These proof principles…
In this paper some proof theory for propositional Lax Logic is developed. A cut free terminating sequent calculus is introduced for the logic, and based on that calculus it is shown that the logic has uniform interpolation. Furthermore, a…
Uniform proofs are sequent calculus proofs with the following characteristic: the last step in the derivation of a complex formula at any stage in the proof is always the introduction of the top-level logical symbol of that formula. We…
For Hilbert, the consistency of a formal theory T is an infinite series of statements "D is free of contradictions" for each derivation D and a consistency proof is i) an operation that, given D, yields a proof that D is free of…
In the framework of explicit substitutions there is two termination properties: preservation of strong normalization (PSN), and strong normalization (SN). Since there are not easily proved, only one of them is usually established (and…
Many generating series of combinatorially interesting numbers have the property that the sum of the terms of order $<p$ at some suitable point is congruent to a zero of a zeta-function modulo infinitely many primes $p$. Surprisingly, very…
In this paper, we present a hypersequent calculus for bimodal logic GR, where the two modalities represent the arithmetic provability predicates of Goedel and Rosser, respectively. We prove the cut-elimination theorem for the calculus.
In model selection problems for machine learning, the desire for a well-performing model with meaningful structure is typically expressed through a regularized optimization problem. In many scenarios, however, the meaningful structure is…
Bachmair's and Ganzinger's abstract redundancy concept for the Superposition Calculus justifies almost all operations that are used in superposition provers to delete or simplify clauses, and thus to keep the clause set manageable. Typical…
We present a proof-theoretical study of the interpretability logic IL, providing a wellfounded and a non-wellfounded sequent calculus for IL. The non-wellfounded calculus is used to establish a cut elimination argument for both calculi. In…
A term calculus for the proofs in multiplicative-additive linear logic is introduced and motivated as a programming language for channel based concurrency. The term calculus is proved complete for a semantics in linearly distributive…
In sequent calculi, cut elimination is a property that guarantees that any provable formula can be proven analytically. For example, Gentzen's classical and intuitionistic calculi LK and LJ enjoy cut elimination. The property is less…
