Refutation Systems for a System of Nonsense-Logic
Journal Title: Logic and Logical Philosophy - Year 2011, Vol 20, Issue 3
Abstract
In the paper rejection systems for a system of nonsense-logic are investigated. The first rejection system consists of four rejected axioms and only one rejection rule - the rule of rejection by detachment. The second one consists of one rejected axiom and two rejection rules: the rule of rejection by detachment and the rule of rejection by substitution. The aim of the paper is to present also a proof of Ł-decidability for the considered systems.

Category Free Category Theory and Its Philosophical Implications
There exists a dispute in philosophy, going back at least to Leibniz, whether is it possible to view the world as a network of relations and relations between relations with the role of objects, between which these relat...
The Need for Pluralism of Causality
It will be shown in this article that a pluralism of causality is needed. Not only, as might be expected, for such different domains as natural sciences and humanities, but even within the domain of physics different cau...
Sweet SIXTEEN: Automation via Embedding into Classical Higher-Order Logic
An embedding of many-valued logics based on SIXTEEN in classical higher-order logic is presented. SIXTEEN generalizes the four-valued set of truth degrees of Dunn/Belnap’s system to a lattice of sixteen truth degrees wit...
