  4. Principia Mathematica - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principia_Mathematica

    It is to be regretted that this first comprehensive and thorough-going presentation of a mathematical logic and the derivation of mathematics from it [is] so greatly lacking in formal precision in the foundations (contained in 1– 21 of Principia [i.e., sections 1– 5 (propositional logic), 8–14 (predicate logic with identity/equality), 20 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_logic

    Mathematical logic, also called 'logistic', 'symbolic logic', the 'algebra of logic', and, more recently, simply 'formal logic', is the set of logical theories elaborated in the course of the nineteenth century with the aid of an artificial notation and a rigorously deductive method. [5]

  7. Laws of Form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laws_of_Form

    Highlights how syntactically distinct statements in logic and 2 can have identical semantics; Dramatically simplifies Boolean algebra calculations, and proofs in sentential and syllogistic logic . Moreover, the syntax of the primary algebra can be extended to formal systems other than 2 and sentential logic, resulting in boundary mathematics ...

  9. Higher-order logic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Higher-order_logic

    In mathematics and logic, a higher-order logic (abbreviated HOL) is a form of logic that is distinguished from first-order logic by additional quantifiers and, sometimes, stronger semantics. Higher-order logics with their standard semantics are more expressive, but their model-theoretic properties are less well-behaved than those of first-order ...
