چکیده

Mathematics and computer science pervasively use logics formal languages for reasoning in. One of the most common is classical First-Order Logic with equality (FOL) [Bell and Machover, 1977, Gabbay and Günthner, 1986]. For example FOL is routinely used as a foundational tool to express Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory (ZF sets) [Johnstone, 1987, Machover, 1996] and thus as a (language to express) a foundation for classical mathematics. The implication is that first-order logic is a minimal and convenient logical framework for doing, well, triangles and numbers and other mathematical objects. But is it so good for the mathematics of computation, i.e. for computer science? Perhaps not, since it cannot express substitution as an object-level operation on its own terms. The λ-calculus [Barendregt, 1984] can and does, in the sense that we can write (λa.s)t, which β-reduces [Barendregt, 1984]:

Equality propositional logic and its extensions

We introduce a new formal logic, called equality propositional logic. It has two basic connectives, $boldsymbol{wedge}$ (conjunction) and $equiv$ (equivalence). Moreover, the $Rightarrow$ (implication) connective can be derived as $ARightarrow B:=(Aboldsymbol{wedge}B)equiv A$. We formulate the equality propositional logic and demonstrate that the resulting logic has reasonable properties such a...

Distributed Contingency Logic and Security

In information security, ignorance is not bliss. It is always stated that hiding the protocols (let the other be ignorant about it) does not increase the security of organizations. However, there are cases that ignorance creates protocols. In this paper, we propose distributed contingency logic, a proper extension of contingency (ignorance) logic. Intuitively, a formula is distributed contingen...

A rule-based evaluation of ladder logic diagram and timed petri nets for programmable logic controllers

This paper describes an evaluation through a case study by measuring a rule-based approach, which proposed for ladder logic diagrams and Petri nets. In the beginning, programmable logic controllers were widely designed by ladder logic diagrams. When complexity and functionality of manufacturing systems increases, developing their software is becoming more difficult. Thus, Petri nets as a high l...

The concept of logic entropy on D-posets

In this paper, a new invariant called {it logic entropy} for dynamical systems on a D-poset is introduced. Also, the {it conditional logical entropy} is defined and then some of its properties are studied.  The invariance of the {it logic entropy} of a system  under isomorphism is proved. At the end,  the notion of an $ m $-generator of a dynamical system is introduced and a version of the Kolm...
