De Morgan's laws represented with Venn diagrams.In each case, the resultant set is the set of all points in any shade of blue. In propositional logic and Boolean algebra, De Morgan's laws, [1] [2] [3] also known as De Morgan's theorem, [4] are a pair of transformation rules that are both valid rules of inference.
(i.e. an involution that additionally satisfies De Morgan's laws) In a De Morgan algebra, the laws ¬x ∨ x = 1 (law of the excluded middle), and; ¬x ∧ x = 0 (law of noncontradiction) do not always hold. In the presence of the De Morgan laws, either law implies the other, and an algebra which satisfies them becomes a Boolean algebra.
The principle of inclusion–exclusion, combined with De Morgan's law, can be used to count the cardinality of the intersection of sets as well. Let A k ¯ {\displaystyle {\overline {A_{k}}}} represent the complement of A k with respect to some universal set A such that A k ⊆ A {\displaystyle A_{k}\subseteq A} for each k .

In logic, a rule of replacement [1] [2] [3] is a transformation rule that may be applied to only a particular segment of an expression.A logical system may be constructed so that it uses either axioms, rules of inference, or both as transformation rules for logical expressions in the system.

Consequently, many of the advances achieved by Leibniz were recreated by logicians like George Boole and Augustus De Morgan, completely independent of Leibniz. [23] Gottlob Frege's predicate logic builds upon propositional logic, and has been described as combining "the distinctive features of syllogistic logic and propositional logic."
