  2. Intensional logic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intensional_logic

    Intensional logic is an approach to predicate logic that extends first-order logic, which has quantifiers that range over the individuals of a universe , by additional quantifiers that range over terms that may have such individuals as their value .

  3. Extensional and intensional definitions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extensional_and...

    An extensional definition gives meaning to a term by specifying its extension, that is, every object that falls under the definition of the term in question.. For example, an extensional definition of the term "nation of the world" might be given by listing all of the nations of the world, or by giving some other means of recognizing the members of the corresponding class.

  4. Transparent intensional logic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transparent_Intensional_Logic

    Transparent intensional logic (frequently abbreviated as TIL) is a logical system created by Pavel Tichý. Due to its rich procedural semantics TIL is in particular apt for the logical analysis of natural language. From the formal point of view, TIL is a hyperintensional, partial, typed lambda calculus.

    A thought experiment by Aristotle to explore the concept of future contingents and the problem of determinism and free will. Aristotle's theses The formulas ¬ (¬ A → A) and ¬ (A → ¬A) in propositional logic; they are theorems in connexive logic but not in classical logic. [17] [18] [19] See also Boethius' theses. arity

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pavel_Tichý

    He worked in the field of intensional logic and founded transparent intensional logic, an original theory of the logical analysis of natural languages – the theory is devoted to the problem of saying exactly what it is that we learn, know and can communicate when we come to understand what a sentence means. He spent roughly 25 years working ...

  7. Intuitionistic type theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intuitionistic_type_theory

    There are multiple versions of the type theory: Martin-Löf proposed both intensional and extensional variants of the theory and early impredicative versions, shown to be inconsistent by Girard's paradox, gave way to predicative versions. However, all versions keep the core design of constructive logic using dependent types.

    Meaning and Necessity: A Study in Semantics and Modal Logic (1947; enlarged edition 1956) is a book about semantics and modal logic by the philosopher Rudolf Carnap.The book, in which Carnap discusses the nature of linguistic expressions, was a continuation of his previous work in semantics in Introduction to Semantics (1942) and Formalization of Logic (1943).
