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.
De Morgan's laws: In propositional logic and Boolean algebra, De Morgan's laws, [15] [16] [17] also known as De Morgan's theorem, [18] are a pair of transformation rules that are both valid rules of inference. They are named after Augustus De Morgan, a 19th-century British mathematician.
De Morgan algebras are important for the study of the mathematical aspects of fuzzy logic. The standard fuzzy algebra F = ([0, 1], max( x , y ), min( x , y ), 0, 1, 1 − x ) is an example of a De Morgan algebra where the laws of excluded middle and noncontradiction do not hold.
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 .

Then we have the useful theorem that a formula is a valid proposition of classical logic if and only if its value is 1 for every valuation—that is, for any assignment of values to its variables. A corresponding theorem is true for intuitionistic logic, but instead of assigning each formula a value from a Boolean algebra, one uses values from ...
This map is an orthocomplementation on the power set lattice, meaning it satisfies De Morgan's laws: if is an arbitrary set of indices and {} ℘ (), = (), = ().
De Morgan's theorem states that if one does the following, in the given order, to any Boolean function: Complement every variable; Swap '+' and '∙' operators (taking care to add brackets to ensure the order of operations remains the same); Complement the result, the result is logically equivalent to what you started with. Repeated application ...
