چکیده

Chiron is a derivative of von-Neumann-Bernays-Gödel (nbg) set theory that is intended to be a practical, general-purpose logic for mechanizing mathematics. It supports several reasoning paradigms by integrating nbg set theory with elements of type theory, a scheme for handling undefinedness, and a facility for reasoning about the syntax of expressions. This paper gives a quick, informal presentation of the syntax and semantics of Chiron and then discusses some of the benefits Chiron provides as a multi-paradigm logic.

Chiron: A Set Theory with Types, Undefinedness, Quotation, and Evaluation

Chiron is a derivative of von-Neumann-Bernays-Gödel (nbg) set theory that is intended to be a practical, general-purpose logic for mechanizing mathematics. Unlike traditional set theories such as Zermelo-Fraenkel (zf) and nbg, Chiron is equipped with a type system, lambda notation, and definite and indefinite description. The type system includes a universal type, dependent types, dependent fun...

Biform Theories in Chiron

An axiomatic theory represents mathematical knowledge declaratively as a set of axioms. An algorithmic theory represents mathematical knowledge procedurally as a set of algorithms. A biform theory is simultaneously an axiomatic theory and an algorithmic theory. It represents mathematical knowledge both declaratively and procedurally. Since the algorithms of algorithmic theories manipulate the s...

Multi-Adjoint Logic Programming

A synthesis of results of the recently introduced paradigm of multi-adjoint logic programming is presented. These results range from a proof theory together with some (quasi)completeness results to general termination results, and from the neural-like implementation of its fix-point semantics to the more general biresiduated multi-adjoint logic programming and its relationship with other approa...

A Boolean Paradigm in Multi-Valued Logic Synthesis

Optimization algorithms used in binary multi-level logic synthesis, such as network simplification, logic extraction, and resubstitution, have been treated independently and did not share computational procedures. Using multi-valued logic synthesis, some common conceptual and computational cores underlying these algorithms can be identified. We present an overview of a Boolean paradigm in multi...

Multi-paradigm Languages Supporting Multi-agent Development

Object-oriented languages generally support agent developments despite logic languages are more appropriate for managing mental attitudes. The alternative of a multi-paradigm language is a way for supporting agent constructions we explore. A multi-paradigm language that supports the encapsulation of actions, the hiding of private knowledge and the flexible manipulation of knowledge could be a g...
