Logic is now widely recognized to be one of the foundational disciplines of computing, and its applications reach almost every aspect of the subject, from software engineering and hardware to programming languages and artificial intelligence research. The Handbook of Logic in Computer Science is a six volume, internationally authored work which offers a comprehensive treatment of the application of the concepts of logic to theoretical computer science. Each volume is comprised of an average of five 100-page monographs and presents an in-depth overview of a major subject area. The first two volumes, available now, cover the background to the subject in terms of mathematical and computational structures. Future volumes will cover semantic structures, semantic modelling, theoretical methods in specification and verification, and logical methods in computer science. The result of five years of cooperative effort by some of the field's most eminent scholars, this series will undoubtedly be the standard reference work in logic and theoretical computer science for years to come.

Das Unendliche hat wie keine andere Frage von jeher so tief das Gemut der Menschen bewegt," das Unendliche hat wie kaum eine andere Idee auf den Verstand so an- regend und fruchtbar gewirkt," das Unendliche ist aber auch wie kein anderer Begriff so der Aufklarung bedurftig. HILBERT [226, p. 163] Etwas mehr als 100 Jahre sind vergangen, seit in den Mathemati- schen Annalen der sechste und letzte Teil von CANTORS fundamenta- ler Arbeit UEber unendliche lineare Punktmannichfaltigkeiten erschie- nen ist. Damit war die Mengenlehre geboren und mit ihr eine prinzipiell neue Auffassung des Unendlichen in der Mathematik, verkoerpert in CANTORS Theorie der transfiniten Zahlen. Diese Theo- rie hat HILBERT als "die bewundernswerteste Blute mathematischen Geistes und uberhaupt eine der hoechsten Leistungen rein verstandes- massiger menschlicher Tatigkeit" bezeichnet. Anfangs unbeachtet oder abgelehnt, zu Ende des vorigen Jahrhunderts zunehmend anerkannt und verwendet, durch die Ent- deckung der Antinomien erneut erschuttert, ist die Mengenlehre in ihrer heutigen axiomatisierten Gestalt eines der Fundamente der Mathematik. Die Tatsache, dass alle mathematischen Begriffe auf mengentheoretische Begriffe zuruckgefuhrt werden koennen, hat ei- nige Autoren sogar zu der Behauptung veranlasst, die gesamte Ma- thematik sei letztendlich mit der Mengenlehre identisch. Wenn uns allerdings eine solche Ansicht als eine ungerechtfertigte UEberbeto- nung des Formalen gegenuber dem Inhaltlichen erscheint, so ist doch unbestritten, dass die mengentheoretische Durchdringung der Mathematik neben der Entstehung des strukturellen Denkens und der Verwendung der axiomatischen Methode ein Wesenszug der mo- dernen Mathematik ist. Das hat in zahlreichen Landern bis in den Schulunterricht hinein gewirkt.

A mathematical introduction to the theory and applications of logic and set theory with an emphasis on writing proofs Highlighting the applications and notations of basic mathematical concepts within the framework of logic and set theory, A First Course in Mathematical Logic and Set Theory introduces how logic is used to prepare and structure proofs and solve more complex problems. The book begins with propositional logic, including two-column proofs and truth table applications, followed by first-order logic, which provides the structure for writing mathematical proofs. Set theory is then introduced and serves as the basis for defining relations, functions, numbers, mathematical induction, ordinals, and cardinals. The book concludes with a primer on basic model theory with applications to abstract algebra. A First Course in Mathematical Logic and Set Theory also includes: * Section exercises designed to show the interactions between topics and reinforce the presented ideas and concepts * Numerous examples that illustrate theorems and employ basic concepts such as Euclid s lemma, the Fibonacci sequence, and unique factorization * Coverage of important theorems including the well-ordering theorem, completeness theorem, compactness theorem, as well as the theorems of Lowenheim Skolem, Burali-Forti, Hartogs, Cantor Schroder Bernstein, and Konig An excellent textbook for students studying the foundations of mathematics and mathematical proofs, A First Course in Mathematical Logic and Set Theory is also appropriate for readers preparing for careers in mathematics education or computer science. In addition, the book is ideal for introductory courses on mathematical logic and/or set theory and appropriate for upper-undergraduate transition courses with rigorous mathematical reasoning involving algebra, number theory, or analysis.

Mathematics and logic have been central topics of concern since the dawn of philosophy. Since logic is the study of correct reasoning, it is a fundamental branch of epistemology and a priority in any philosophical system. Philosophers have focused on mathematics as a case study for general philosophical issues and for its role in overall knowledge- gathering. Today, philosophy of mathematics and logic remain central disciplines in contemporary philosophy, as evidenced by the regular appearance of articles on these topics in the best mainstream philosophical journals; in fact, the last decade has seen an explosion of scholarly work in these areas.
This volume covers these disciplines in a comprehensive and accessible manner, giving the reader an overview of the major problems, positions, and battle lines. The 26 contributed chapters are by established experts in the field, and their articles contain both exposition and criticism as well as substantial development of their own positions. The essays, which are substantially self-contained, serve both to introduce the reader to the subject and to engage in it at its frontiers. Certain major positions are represented by two chapters--one supportive and one critical.
The Oxford Handbook of Philosophy of Math and Logic is a ground-breaking reference like no other in its field. It is a central resource to those wishing to learn about the philosophy of mathematics and the philosophy of logic, or some aspect thereof, and to those who actively engage in the discipline, from advanced undergraduates to professional philosophers, mathematicians, and historians.

This book develops arithmetic without the induction principle, working in theories that are interpretable in Raphael Robinson's theory Q. Certain inductive formulas, the bounded ones, are interpretable in Q. A mathematically strong, but logically very weak, predicative arithmetic is constructed.

R3,314 Discovery Miles 33 140 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

An Introduction to Proof Theory provides an accessible introduction to the theory of proofs, with details of proofs worked out and examples and exercises to aid the reader's understanding. It also serves as a companion to reading the original pathbreaking articles by Gerhard Gentzen. The first half covers topics in structural proof theory, including the Goedel-Gentzen translation of classical into intuitionistic logic (and arithmetic), natural deduction and the normalization theorems (for both NJ and NK), the sequent calculus, including cut-elimination and mid-sequent theorems, and various applications of these results. The second half examines ordinal proof theory, specifically Gentzen's consistency proof for first-order Peano Arithmetic. The theory of ordinal notations and other elements of ordinal theory are developed from scratch, and no knowledge of set theory is presumed. The proof methods needed to establish proof-theoretic results, especially proof by induction, are introduced in stages throughout the text. Mancosu, Galvan, and Zach's introduction will provide a solid foundation for those looking to understand this central area of mathematical logic and the philosophy of mathematics.

Diese kompakte Einfuhrung in die Theoretische Informatik stellt die wichtigsten Modelle fur zentrale Probleme der Informatik vor. Dabei werden u.a. folgende Fragestellungen behandelt:

R674 Discovery Miles 6 740 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

Dieses Buch basiert auf Vorlesungen, die der Autor in Kaiserslautern gehalten hat. Ihr wesentliches Anliegen war, die Turing-berechenbaren Wortfunktionen auf eine von jeglichem Maschinenmodell unabhangige Weise zu charakterisieren, namlich als die partiell Wort-rekursiven Wortfunktionen. Wortfunktionen lassen sich mittels arithmetischer Funktionen darstellen und zwar so, dass die partiell rekursiven arithmetischen Funktionen den partiell Wort-rekursiven Wortfunktionen entsprechen, was fur sich gesehen schon nicht auf der Hand liegt. Auf diese Weise erhalt man den Begriff der Turing-Berechenbarkeit auch fur arithmetische Funktionen. Der Satz also, dass die Turing-berechenbaren Wortfunktionen gerade die partiell rekursiven Wortfunktionen sind, ist uberhaupt nicht selbstverstandlich, so dass auf dem Wege zu diesem Satz eine ganze Reihe hoch interessanter weiterer Satze zu beweisen sind. Dies alles ist hier aufgeschrieben.

In mathematics we are interested in why a particular formula is true. Intuition and statistical evidence are insufficient, so we need to construct a formal logical proof. The purpose of this book is to describe why such proofs are important, what they are made of, how to recognize valid ones, how to distinguish different kinds, and how to construct them. This book is written for 1st year students with no previous experience of formulating proofs. Dave Johnson has drawn from his considerable experience to provide a text that concentrates on the most important elements of the subject using clear, simple explanations that require no background knowledge of logic. It gives many useful examples and problems, many with fully-worked solutions at the end of the book. In addition to a comprehensive index, there is also a useful `Dramatis Personae` an index to the many symbols introduced in the text, most of which will be new to students and which will be used throughout their degree programme.
