  2. Mathematical logic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_logic

    Mathematical logic is the study of formal logic within mathematics. Major subareas include model theory, proof theory, set theory, and recursion theory (also known as computability theory). Research in mathematical logic commonly addresses the mathematical properties of formal systems of logic such as their expressive or deductive power.

  3. Logical reasoning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_reasoning

    A variety of basic concepts is used in the study and analysis of logical reasoning. Logical reasoning happens by inferring a conclusion from a set of premises. [3] Premises and conclusions are normally seen as propositions. A proposition is a statement that makes a claim about what is the case.

  4. Logic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logic

    Computational logic is the branch of logic and computer science that studies how to implement mathematical reasoning and logical formalisms using computers. This includes, for example, automatic theorem provers , which employ rules of inference to construct a proof step by step from a set of premises to the intended conclusion without human ...

  5. Outline of logic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_logic

    Logic is the formal science of using reason and is considered a branch of both philosophy and mathematics and to a lesser extent computer science.Logic investigates and classifies the structure of statements and arguments, both through the study of formal systems of inference and the study of arguments in natural language.

    The triangle is one of the basic shapes in geometry. Logic – formal systematic study of the principles of valid inference and correct reasoning. Logic is used in most intellectual activities, but is studied primarily in the disciplines of philosophy, mathematics, semantics, and computer science.

  8. Foundations of mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foundations_of_mathematics

    Foundations of mathematics are the logical and mathematical framework that allows the development of mathematics without generating self-contradictory theories, and, in particular, to have reliable concepts of theorems, proofs, algorithms, etc. This may also include the philosophical study of the relation of this framework with reality. [1]

  9. Algebraic logic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_logic

    In mathematical logic, algebraic logic is the reasoning obtained by manipulating equations with free variables.. What is now usually called classical algebraic logic focuses on the identification and algebraic description of models appropriate for the study of various logics (in the form of classes of algebras that constitute the algebraic semantics for these deductive systems) and connected ...
