Notes oN the FouNdiNg oF Logics aNd MetaLogic: aristotLe, BooLe, aNd tarski
This paper is more a series of notes than a scholarly treatise. It focuses on certain achieve‐ ments of Aristotle, Boole and Tarski.

متن کاملTarski Number and Configuration Equations
The concept of configuration of groups which is defined in terms of finite partitions and finite strings of elements of the group is presented by Rosenblatt and Willis. To each set of configurations, a finite system of equations known as configuration equations, is associated. Rosenblatt and Willis proved that a discrete group G is amenable if and only if every possible instance of its configur...

Using this theorem as motivation, this paper will explore the existence of non-measurable sets and paradoxical decompositions as well as provide a sketch of the proof of the paradox.
