[PEIRCE-L] Why the hexagon of opposition is really a triangle: logical structures as geometric shapes - Ori Milstein - LUW April 24, 2024, 4pm CET

Title: "Why the hexagon of opposition is really a triangle: logical
structures as geometric shapes"
Abstract: "This paper suggests a new approach (with old roots) to the
study of the connection between logic and geometry. Traditionally, most
logic diagrams associate only vertices of shapes with propositions. The
new approach, which can be dubbed ’full logical geometry’, aims to
associate every element of a shape (edges, faces, etc.) with a proposition.
The roots of this approach can be found in the works of Carroll,
Jacoby, and more recently, Dubois and Prade. However, its potential
has not been duly appreciated, probably because of the complexity of
the diagrams in these works. The following study demonstrates how the
Hexagon of Opposition can be represented as a triangle and Classical
Logic as a tetrahedron (rather than a rhombic dodecahedron). It then
applies the approach to modal logic, extending the tetrahedron for the
logic KT into a dipyramid and a cube for KD, and finally an octahedron
for K. Some possible directions for further research are also indicated.."

March 27, 2024 at 4pm CET

Speaker: José M. Sagüillo
Department of Philosophy, University of Santiago de Compostela, Spain

Title: "The philosophy of logic of John Corcoran"
Abstract: "This talk  surveys the philosophy of logic of John Corcoran by
focusing on some of its characteristic themes: his understanding of logic
as formal epistemology articulating the ontic-epistemic distinction of
classical metaphysics, the Socratic belief-knowledge distinction, and the
Aristotelian truth-knowledge distinction; his conception of mathematical
logic as instrumental when considering mathematical logics as models of
underlying reasoning found in the practice of proof; his tireless search
for a careful and successful communication in a community of thinkers
eliminating ambiguity of key terms and embracing ethical values; his
discussion of argumentations and logic as a philosophical realization of
the previous dichotomies, allowing precise definitions of key concepts,
such as, argument, argumentation, proof, deduction, fallacy, and paradox;
finally, his recovering and articulation of the XIX century
information-theoretic conception of validity, exploring its heuristic power
in the study of omega arguments and suggesting the existence of different
paradigms of logical consequence equally entrenched in the theory and
practice of logic."

1st Pan African Logic Congress
The logic of nature & the nature of logic in Africa
April  28–30, 2024 - The British University in Egypt, Cairo

This congress aims to promote logic in Africa. It is focused on Nature in a
double sense. Wildlife is very important in Africa, the flora and fauna are
very impressive.
This is the place where there is the highest number and variety of animals.
And for this reason, the people especially in central Africa have a strong
connection with nature.
It is the opportunity therefore to reflect on the logic of nature and to
examine to what extent it is different from the logic of the technological
and industrial world (computers, artificial intelligence, and so on).
This is a way therefore to challenge the very nature of logic. From this
perspective, logic is understood in a very wide sense and in relation to
all aspects of the world, natural and artificial.
The purpose of this event is to reveal and explore different manners of
reasoning embedded in African cults, myths, arts, religions, rituals,
economic systems, traditional justice systems, and architectural systems.
This congress  will enrich logical studies and their relative subjects like
AI through elaborating  logical interpretations of different aspects of
African cultures.

Title "On the transitivity of Logical Consequence without Assuming
Monotonicity"
Abstract  "We generalize Ripley’s results on the transitivity of consequence
relation, without assuming a logic to be monotonic. Following
Gabbay, we assume nonmonotonic consequence relation to be inclusive
and cautious monotonic, and figure out the implications between different
forms of transitivity of logical consequence. Weaker frameworks
without inclusiveness or cautious monotonicity are also discussed. The
paper may provide basis for the study of both non-transitive logics and
nonmonotonic ones."

Title: "Should We Embrace Impossible Worlds Due to the Flaws of Normal
Modal Logic?"
Abstract  "Some philosophers advance the claim that the phenomena of
logical omniscience and of the indiscernibility of metaphysical statements,
which arise in (certain) interpretations of normal modal logic, provide
strong reasons in favour of impossible world approaches. These two specific
lines of argument will be presented and discussed in this paper. Contrary
to the recent much-held view that the characteristics of these two
phenomena provide us with strong reasons to adopt impossible world
approaches, the view defended here is that no such ‘knock-down arguments’
do emanate on those grounds. This is not to rule out that there cannot be
any other good reasons for assuming impossible world semantics. However,
the discussion of a further argument for impossible worlds will suggest
that different attempts to argue for them likely present intertwined
problems."

[PEIRCE-L] LUW December 13 - Julio Stern - Dynamic Oppositional Symmetries for Color, Jungian and Kantian Categories

2023-12-12 Thread jean-yves beziau
The  next Logica Universalis Webinar session will be Wednesday December 13
at 4pm CET Paris-Geneva-Rome
>---
Speaker: Julio Michael  Stern, University of São Paulo, Brazil
Title:  "Dynamic Oppositional Symmetries for Color, Jungian and Kantian
Categories"
Abstract: This paper investigates some classical oppositional categories,
like synthetic vs. analytic, posterior vs. prior, imagination vs. grammar,
metaphor vs. hermeneutic, metaphysics vs. observation, innovation vs.
routine, and image vs. sound, and the role they play in epistemology and
philosophy of science. The epistemological framework of objective cognitive
constructivism is of special interest in these investigations. Oppositional
relations are formally represented using algebraic lattice structures
like the cube and the hexagon of opposition, with applications
in the contexts of modern color theory, Kantian philosophy, Jungian
psychology, and linguistics.

Speaker: William Troiani
https://williamtroiani.github.io/
Title:  "The internal logic and finite colimits"
Abstract: We describe how  finite colimits can be described using the
internal language, also known as the Mitchell-Benabou language, of a
topos, provided the topos admits countably in finite colimits. This
description
is based on the set theoretic definitions of colimits and coequalizers,
however the translation is not direct due to the di erences between
set theory and the internal language, these differences are described as
*internal* versus *external*. Solutions to the hurdles which thus arise are
given.

[PEIRCE-L] Morphisms between Aristotelian Diagrams by Alex De Klerck,. LUWebinar, Novr 15, 4pm, Paris-Geneva-Rome

The next session of the Logica Universalis Webinar will be November 15 at

Speaker:  Alexander De Klerck
Title  "Morphisms between Aristotelian Diagrams"
Abstract: In logical geometry, Aristotelian diagrams are studied in a
precise and systematic way. Although there has recently been a good
amount of progress in logical geometry, it is still unknown which underlying
mathematical framework is best suited for formalizing the study of
these diagrams. Hence, in this paper, the main aim is to formulate such
a framework, using the powerful language of category theory. We build
multiple categories, which all have Aristotelian diagrams as their objects,
while having different kinds of morphisms between these diagrams.
The categories developed here are assessed according to their ability to
generalize previous work from logical geometry as well as their interesting
category-theoretical properties. According to these evaluations,
the most promising category has as its morphisms those functions on
fragments that increase in informativity on both the opposition and
implication
relations. Focusing on this category can significantly increase
the effectiveness of further research in logical geometry.

[PEIRCE-L] LUW October 18 / A Study of the Metatheory of Assertoric Syllogistic

2023-10-18 Thread jean-yves beziau
Speaker: Maristela Rocha
Title: A Study of the Metatheory of Assertoric Syllogistic
Abstract: We show how a semantics based on Aristotle’s texts and ecthetic
proofs can be reconstructed. All truth conditions are given by means of set
inclusion. Perfect syllogisms reveal to be valid arguments that deserve a
validity proof. It turns out of these proofs that transitivity of set
inclusion is the necessary and sufficient condition for the validity and
perfection of a syllogism. The proofs of validity for imperfect syllogisms
are direct proofs without conversion in a calculus of natural deduction.
Transitivity of set inclusion turns out to be a necessary condition for the
validity of imperfect syllogisms. As a consequence, it can be established
what the main metalogical difference between a perfect and an imperfect
syllogism is. The validity of the laws of conversion is also obtained by
direct proofs. Finally, it is shown that and explained why some imperfect
syllogisms satisfy the definition of a perfect syllogism.

2023-10-02 Thread jean-yves beziau
The next session of the Logica Universalis Webinar will be Wednesday
October 4 at 4pm CET

Speaker: Gabriele Pulcini,   University of Rome Tor Vergata, Italy
Title: Complementary Proof Nets for Classical Logic
Abstract: A complementary system for a given logic is a proof system whose
theorems are exactly the formulas that are not valid according to the logic
in question. This article is a contribution to the complementary proof
theory of classical propositional logic. In particular, we present a
complementary proof-net system, CPN, that is sound and complete with
respect to the set of all classically invalid (one-side) sequents. We also
show that cut elimination in CPN enjoys strong normalization along with
strong confluence (and, hence, uniqueness of normal forms).

The next session of the Logica Universalis Webinar will be Wednesday
September 20 at 4pm CET

Speaker: Alexei Muravitsky  Northwestern State University, Natchitoches, USA
Title: On Consequence and Rejection as Operators
Abstract: This paper is devoted to the concepts of consequence and
rejection, formulated as operators on a nonempty set of sentences, which
may initially be unstructured. One of the issues that we pay attention to
is the “cyclicity” of these concepts when they are defined one through the
other. In addition, we explore this cyclicity, when the set of all
sentences acquires some structure, or we can assume some structure of
sentences in the sense that the operation of substitution can be applied to
them.

permutations of 2 sequences of real numbers are maximized when the terms
are similarly ordered and minimized when the terms are ordered in opposite
order. We show that similar inequalities exist in algebras of multi-valued
logic when the multiplication and addition operations are replaced with
various T-norms and T-conorms respectively. For instance, we show that the
rearrangement inequality holds when the T-norms and T-conorms are derived
from Archimedean copulas.

[PEIRCE-L] Why Logics?

2023-07-05 Thread jean-yves beziau
Dear Colleagues
I am glad to announce the recent publication of the paper
"Why* Logics?" *in the new MDPI journal * LOGICS*
https://www.mdpi.com/2813-0405/1/3/7

In section 4, entitled "Birth of the Journal *Logics*",  I tell how I
suggested to MDPI launching  a new journal named "Logics" (it was two years
ago in July 2021) and how this journal was created.
In this paper, I explain what the motivation to have a journal with such a
name was and how we can understand the plural of "logic".
This is the opportunity to develop a reflection about  the meaning and
importance of logic.
Nice to see, following other projects I have launched, such as the World
Logic Day, that logic is becoming more and more influential.

The Decision Problem for Effective Procedures - Celebration of the 120th
anniversary of Alonzo Church
Nathan Salmon (University of California at Santa Barbara), Gary Mar (State
University of New York, Stony Brook), Melvin Fitting (CUNY Graduate Center)
Logica Universalis Webinar 2023
-
June 14, 2023 at 4pm CET (Paris-Geneva-Rome) we will have one more session
of the Logica Universalis Webinar (LUW).
Nathan Salmón will present his recently published paper in Logica
Universalis
"The Decision Problem for Effective Procedures"
https://www.springer.com/journal/11787/

Salmón was a former PhD student of the famous logician and founder of
computer science Alonzo Church.
Church was born June 14, 1903. We will therefore commemorate his 120th
anniversary with a preliminary presentation by his last PhD student Gary
R.Mar.
The chair of the session will be Melvin Fitting.

Nathan Salmón was also a long time friend and collaborator of Saul Kripke:
https://www.simplycharly.com/read/interviews/naming-names-a-deep-dive-into-saul-kripkes-philosophy-with-nathan-salmon/

At LUW we have before the main talk the presentation of an association
related to the author or/and topic of the talk.
The Kripke center was presented at  the LUW session of August 11, 2021:
https://youtu.be/piyvWZ5nOik

This next LUW session June 14 will initiate a series where the preliminary
talk is related to the anniversary of a famous logician.
This is not indeed completely new, considering that the first session of
LUW was for the celebration of the World Logic Day, January 14, 2021,
the 120th anniversary of Alfred Tarski:

Association (Geneva, Switzerland)
Part of the 4th World Congress on Logic and Religion, Sinaia, Sept 3-8, 2023

CALL FOR PAPERS
On the one hand symbolism is important in most religions, on the other hand
modern logic is often characterized as symbolic.
This workshop, part of WoCoLoR4, explores the relation between these two
symbolic approaches.
Suggested topics include - but are not limited to - the following:
> Boole's symbolic mathematical notation in logic and abstract religious
notions
> Zoroastrianism's dualism, Pythagoras's table of opposites, Trinity
Christian triangle, Islamic geometrical objects and the theory of
oppositions
> Yin/Yang and the notion of complementary contradiction
> the symbolism of the cross, crucifixion, negation and abnegation
> Venn symbolic logic, Venn diagrams and their application for
understanding  religious phenomena
> the universal quantifier and catholicism as a religion for all
>  is the existential quantifier really symbolizing existence?
> Cabala symbolism and logic in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Charles
Dodgson, aka Lewis Carroll, deacon in the Church of England and symbolic
logician
> logical "interpretation" of Gödel's proof of the existence of God in
symbolic logic

[PEIRCE-L] LUW May 10 - Revising the Elenchus via Belief Revision - by Ekaterina Kubyshkina and Mattia Petrolo

2023-05-09 Thread jean-yves beziau
The next session of the Logica Universalis Webinar (LUW) will be Wednesday
May 10 at 4pm CET

Speakers:  Ekaterina Kubyshkina and Mattia Petrolo
Title: Revising the Elenchus via Belief Revision
Abstract:  Vlastos’ famous characterization of the Socratic elenchus
focuses on two main aspects of this method: its epistemic roots and its
dialogical nature. Our aim is to lay the groundwork to formally capture
this characterization. To do so, first, we outline an epistemic framework
in which the elenchus can be inscribed. More precisely, we focus our
analysis on the passage from unconscious ignorance to conscious (or
Socratic)  ignorance and provide new insights about the epistemic outcome
of an elenctic argument. Secondly, from a logical perspective, we consider
the  elenchus as a dynamic exchange allowing Socrates’ respondents to
revise  their beliefs, on pain of inconsistency. By stressing this point,
we represent this method as a process of belief revision in dynamic
epistemic logic  and provide a new logical solution to what Vlastos called
the problem of the elenchus.

[PEIRCE-L] LUW April 19, 2023: An Intensional Formalization of Generic Statements by Hugolin Bergier

2023-04-18 Thread jean-yves beziau
The next session of the Logica Universalis Webinar will be  Wednesday 19 at
4pm CET.
Speaker: Hugolin Bergier
Title of the talk: An Intensional Formalization of Generic Statements
Abstract:  A statement is generic if it expresses a generalization about
the members of a kind, as in, ’Pear trees blossom in May,’ or, ’Birds lay
egg’. In classical logic, generic statements are formalized as universally
quantified conditionals: ’For all x, if ..., then ’ We want to argue
that
such a logical interpretation fails to capture the intensional character of
generic statements because it cannot express the generic statement as
a simple proposition in Aristotle’s sense, i.e., a proposition containing
only one single predicate. On the contrary, we’ll show that lambda
abstraction
and combinatory logic can help us transform the classical,
non-simple and extensional expression of generic statements into a new,
simple and intensional formalization, through the introduction of an
operator that we will call ALL*. We will show that this new operator
allows for the possibility of a single predication, e.g. fly(), because it
builds, out of a concept like ’bird’, a concrete universal, e.g. ’birds’,
upon
which the single predicate can be applied to authentically formalize a
generic statement, e.g. ’birds fly’.

[PEIRCE-L] Abstract Categorical Logic / Isabelle Bloch / LUW February 22

2023-02-21 Thread jean-yves beziau
The next session of the Logica Universalis Webinar will be Wednesday
February 22 at 4pm CET (Paris-Geneva-Rome)

Speaker:  Isabelle Bloch, Sorbonne, Paris, France
Title of the talk: Abstract Categorical Logic
Abstract: We present in this talk  an abstract categorical logic based on
an abstraction of quantifier. More precisely, the proposed logic is
abstract because no structural constraints are imposed on models (semantics
free). By contrast, formulas are inductively defined from an abstraction
both of atomic formulas and of quantifiers. In this sense, the proposed
approach differs from other works interested in formalizing the notion of
abstract logic and of which the closest to our approach are the
institutions, which in addition to be semantics free do not also impose any
syntactic contingencies on the structure of formulas. To define the
semantical framework in which formulas will be interpreted, we propose to
follow the idea from categorical logic which defines the semantical
interpretation of formulas from context and as subobjects of an object of a
given category. In the spirit of Lawvere’s hyperdoctrines, we use a more
abstract notion which generalizes the notion of subobject, standard in
category theory: Pitt’s prop-categories. Always in the spirit of
categorical logic, we propose a sequent calculus of which we show
correctness and completeness for all semantical frameworks defined over any
prop-categories. We then study some conditions which allow us to get this
completeness result for particular classes of prop-categories.

Dear Colleagues
Just released in the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy (IEP) the entry
"Arthur Schopenhauer: Logic and Dialectic" by Jens Lemanski.
https://iep.utm.edu/schopenhauer-logic-and-dialectic/
Schopenhauer’s important work on logic  is not yet well known. It was he in
particular who promoted the terminology "metalogical", as I explained in
the article
"Metalogic, Schopenhauer and Universal Logic"
http://www.jyb-logic.org/METALOGIC-SCHOPENHAUER
This article has 50 pages, here a one-page entry in the language of Hermann
Hesse published in the Schopenhauer Lexicon:

[PEIRCE-L] Universal Algebraic Logic - Dedicated to the Unity of Science / LUW January 25, 2023 at 4pm CET

2023-01-24 Thread jean-yves beziau
The next session of LUW (Logica Universalis Webinar)
will be Wednesday January 25, 2023 at 4pm CET (Paris-Geneva-Rome)

Speaker:  Zalán Gyenis, Jagiellonian University, Kraków, Poland
Title of the talk: Universal Algebraic Logic - Dedicated to the Unity of
Science
Abstract: This is the presentation of a book by Hajnal Andréka , Zalán
Gyenis, István Németi and Ildikó Sain that gives a comprehensive
introduction to Universal Algebraic Logic. The three main themes are (i)
universal logic and the question of what logic is, (ii) duality theories
between the world of logics and the world of algebra, and (iii) Tarskian
algebraic logic proper including algebras of relations of various ranks,
cylindric algebras, relation algebras, polyadic algebras and other kinds of
algebras of logic. One of the strengths of our approach is that it is
directly applicable to a wide range of logics including not only
propositional logics but also e.g. classical first order logic and other
quantifier logics. Following the Tarskian tradition, besides the
connections between logic and algebra, related logical connections with
geometry and eventually spacetime geometry leading up to relativity are
also part of the perspective of the book. Besides Tarskian algebraizations
of logics, category theoretical perspectives are also touched upon.

[PEIRCE-L] THE IMPORTANCE OF LOGIC FOR HUMANITY - World Logic Day 2023 - January 14, 4pm CET

2023-01-13 Thread jean-yves beziau
For the 5th edition of the World Logic Day LUA  is organizing a round table
on THE IMPORTANCE OF LOGIC FOR HUMANITY.

Human beings were characterized in Greek antiquity as "logical animals"
("rational animals", in Latin). "Logos" in Greek has four main meanings:
language, science, reasoning, relation. Logic is not one science among
others. It is a very special science and it is not only a science, it is an
extraordinary capacity that human beings have, called in Latin "reasoning".
Logic is the art of thinking that allows us to understand, master and
transform reality. Logic is not one field among others because it is
universal, it encompasses everything: reasoning is fundamental for the
development of any science, to guide our mind, to direct our actions.

In this webinar we will discuss these questions with the following
participants: Jean-Yves Beziau, Julie Brumberg-Chaumont, Ioannis
Vandoulakis, Elena Lisanyuk, Patrick Blackburn, Caroline Pires Ting, John
Symons.
Chairwoman: Katarzyna Gan-Krzywoszynska

Abstract: An extension of the propositional probability logic LPP2 given in
Ognjanović et al. (Probability Logics. Probability-Based Formalization of
Uncertain Reasoning, Theoretical Springer, Cham, Switzerland, 2016) that
allows mixing of propositional formulas and probabilistic formulas is
introduced. We describe the corresponding class of models, and we show that
the problem of deciding satisfiability is in NP. We provide infinitary
axiomatization for the logic and we prove that the axiomatization is sound
and strongly complete.

Speaker: Andrew Adamatzky
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Adamatzky
Title:  Logics in Fungal Mycelium Networks
Abstract:  The living mycelium networks are capable of efficient sensorial
fusion over very large areas and distributed decision making. The
information processing in the mycelium networks is implemented via
propagation of electrical and chemical signals en pair with morphological
changes in the mycelium structure. These information processing mechanisms
are manifested in experimental laboratory findings that show that the
mycelium networks exhibit rich dynamics of neuron-like spiking behaviour
and a wide range of non-linear electrical properties. On an example of a
single real colony of Aspergillus niger, we demonstrate that the non-linear
transformation of electrical signals and trains of extracellular voltage
spikes can be used to implement logical gates and circuits. The approaches
adopted include numerical modelling of excitation propagation on the
mycelium network, representation of the mycelium network as a resistive and
capacitive network and an experimental laboratory study on mining logical
circuits in mycelium bound composites.

[PEIRCE-L] Methodological Shift in Favor of (Some) Paraconsistency in the Sciences - LUW November 16 at 4pm CET

Speaker:  María del Rosario Martínez-Ordaz

Title: Methodological Shift in Favor of (Some) Paraconsistency in the
Sciences
Abstract: Many have contended that non-classical logicians have failed at
providing evidence of paraconsistent logics being applicable in cases of
inconsistency toleration in the sciences. With this in mind, my main
concern here is methodological. I aim at addressing the question of how we
should study and explain cases of inconsistent science, using
paraconsistent tools, without ruining into the most common methodological
mistakes. My response is divided into two main parts: first, I provide some
methodological guidance on how to approach cases of inconsistent science;
and second, I focus on a peculiar type of formal methodologies for the
scrutiny of inconsistent reasoning, the Paraconsistent Alternative Approach
(henceforth, PAA) and argue that PAA can enhance a more accurate
understanding of sensible reasoning in inconsistent contexts.

[PEIRCE-L] Start of the World Congress of Logic and Religion (WoCoLoR 3) in Varanasi India

2022-11-02 Thread jean-yves beziau
Dear Colleagues
After a first edition in João Pessoa, Brazil and a second edition in
Warsaw, Poland with the participation of scholars such as Saul Kripke
(Schock Prize), Laurent Lafforgue (Fields Medal), Michal Heller (Templeton
Prize), Dov Gabbay, Jessica Frazier, Snezana Lawrence, Jan Wolesnki, etc.,
this week will start the third edition of the World Congress of Logic and
Religion (WoCoLoR 3)  in Varanasi, India.
Varanasi is one of the oldest and most sacred cities in the World, by the
Ganges river. The event will take place at the  Banaras Hindu University at
the time of the Dev Deepawali festival (Festival of Lights of the Gods). The
steps of all the ghats on the riverfront of the Ganges River, from Ravidas
Ghat at the southern end to Rajghat, are lit with more than a million
earthen lamps (diyas) in honour of Ganga, the Ganges, and its presiding
goddess. According to history the gods are believed to descend to Earth to
bathe in the Ganges on this day.
For this luminous edition we will have the participation of  scholars such
as Piergiorgio Odifredi (Turin University, Italy), Ephraim Mer (Bar-Ilan
University, Israel), Ngawang Samten (Central University for Tibetan
Studies, India), Thomas Regehly (Schopenhauer Society, Germany), Caroline
Pires Ting (Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil), Graham Priest
(Melbourne University, Australia).

https://www.lorenzdemey.eu/
Title: Leonardi.DB: A Database of Aristotelian Diagrams
Abstract:  Aristotelian diagrams, such as the square of opposition, are
among the oldest and most well-known types of logical diagrams. Within the
burgeoning research program of logical geometry, we have been developing a
comprehensive database of Aristotelian diagrams that occur in the extant
literature: Leonardi.DB (the Leuven Ontology for Aristotelian Diagrams, and
its corresponding Database). In this talk, which is based on joint work
with Hans Smessaert, I will present Leonardi.DB to the universal logic
research community. We describe the philosophical background and main
motivations for Leonardi.DB, focusing on how the database provides a solid
empirical foundation for theoretical research within logical geometry. We
also discuss some of the main methodological and technical aspects of the
database development. As a proof-of-concept, we provide some examples of
the new kinds of research that will be facilitated by Leonardi.DB, e.g.,
regarding broad trends in the usage and visual properties of Aristotelian
diagrams.

[PEIRCE-L] Quine Set Theory - next LUW session, September 28 at 4pm CET

2022-09-27 Thread jean-yves beziau
The next Logica Universalis Webinar session will take place September 28 at
4pm CET

Speaker:  Tin Adlešic
Title: A Modern Rigorous Approach to Stratification in NF/NFU
Abstract:  The main feature of NF/NFU is the notion of stratification,
which sets it apart from other set theories. We define stratification and
prove constructively that every stratified formula has the (unique) least
assignment of types. The basic notion of stratification is concerned only
with variables, but we extend it to abstraction terms in order to simplify
further development. We reflect on nested abstraction terms, proving that
they get the expected types. These extensions enable us to check whether
some complex formula is stratified without rewriting it in the basic
language. We also introduce natural numbers and a variant of the axiom of
infinity, in order to precisely introduce type level ordered pairs, which
are crucial in simplifying the definitions in the last part of the article.
Using these notions we can easily define the sets of ordinal and cardinal
numbers, which we show at the end of the article. The same approach can be
readily applied to NF.

[PEIRCE-L] David Makinson, Frege’s Ontological Diagram Completed, LUW Sept 7 at 4 pm CET,

2022-09-05 Thread jean-yves beziau
The next session of the Logica Universalis Webinar will take place
Wednesday September 7 at 4pm CET.
Speaker: David Makinson
Title of the Talk: Frege’s Ontological Diagram Completed
Abstract: In a letter of 1891, Frege drew a diagram to illustrate his
logical ontology. We observe that it omits features that play an important
role in his thought on the matter, propose an extension of the diagram to
include them, and compare with a diagram of the ontology of current
first-order logic.

[PEIRCE-L] Natural Deduction for Quantum Logic - LUW August 10 at 4pm CET

2022-08-09 Thread jean-yves beziau
The next session of the Logica Universalis Webinar will be August 10 at 4pm
CET

Speaker:  Kenji Tokuo, National Institute of Technology, Japan
Title: Natural Deduction for Quantum Logic
Abstract: This paper presents a natural deduction system for orthomodular
quantum logic. The system is shown to be provably equivalent to Nishimura’s
quantum sequent calculus. Through the Curry–Howard isomorphism, quantum
λ-calculus is also introduced for which strong normalization property is
established.

Re: [PEIRCE-L] reality, thought and language / names for mixed zones

2022-08-06 Thread jean-yves beziau
Saussure when introducing the distinction between signified  (signifié) and
signifier (signifiant).  gives as an example of signified  "the concept of
tree".
So we can say that Saussure is working on the pair language/thought (which
he calls "sign", not the usual meaning of the word)
Quine with "Word and Object" is rather on the pair language/reality
and Frege with  Bedeutung and Sinn on the pair reality/thought
In the three cases if we want to stress the interaction we can say that
Frege is yellow, Saussure cyan and Quine magenta.

[PEIRCE-L] Logica Universalis Webinar on Cassyni

2022-08-02 Thread jean-yves beziau
Starting tomorrow the Logica Universalis Webinar will be managed using the
Cassyni platform.
The sessions will still be  Zoom sessions and the webinar will  still be
supervised by the Springer team, but Cassyni will be the basic platform
that we will use.
About Cassyni, see
"Cassyni aims to make online seminars more findable and citable"
https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-021-02983-9

One good thing about Cassyni is an attribution of a DOI number to each
session of the webinar, that therefore becomes an official
scientific production, that can be cited.
Here is the Cassyni page of LUW:
https://cassyni.com/s/logica-universalis
with all the sessions since the start of LUW at the beginning of 2021.
As you can see the DOI is just on the right of the date of the session.
And each session has a full detailed page with all the info, e.g.
Coproduct and Amalgamation of Deductive Systems by Means of Ordered
Algebras / Ciro Russo
https://cassyni.com/events/PSEpDr5tV1RWLteKe4rvpm

To attend LUW you need to register on Cassyni, this can be done in 1mn
https://cassyni.com/register
and then, if you want, you can create a profile.

For each session the zoom link will be available on the top of the page of
the session 30mn before the start of the session,
see e.g. the page of tomorrow session, talk by Norihiro Kamide
"An Extended Paradefinite Logic Combining Conflation, Paraconsistent
Negation, Classical Negation, and Classical Implication: How to Construct

[PEIRCE-L] Deadline for Logic Paradise approaching: July 31st

2022-07-28 Thread jean-yves beziau
November 4-8, 2022 will take place in Varanasi, India,
the 3rd edition of the World Congress on Logic and Religion (3rd WoCoLoR)
https://www.logicandreligion.com/3rd-world-congress

Among the workshops of the 3rd WoCoLoR we will have
Logic of Paradise
Submissions are welcome. Deadline is July 31st.
https://philevents.org/event/show/101370

Paradise is a famous notion in many religions. It may have different names
and may come with different related notions. As a substantive, it is
considered as a location, but there is also the qualitative “paradisiacal”,
that applies to many situations and can be related to different states of
mind. The aim of this workshop is to study the logical aspects of paradise
and  paradisiacality.
We invite submissions of contributed papers on topics related to these
questions, including but not restricted to:
- Logical relations of paradise with similar, different or opposite
locations, such as hell, purgatory, limbo, earth, heaven.
- Aspects of the paradisiac mind (happiness, delightedness) and its logical
relations with other psychic dispositions such as hope, fear, anger,
confidence, joy.
- Ways to reach paradise using logic to avoid illusions, misleading gurus,
wrong behaviors and to develop good understanding, balancing emotions with
the intellect.
- The logical structure of the paradise: kinds of things and beings which
are inside paradise (stones, rivers, seas, plants, trees, animals, humans,
divine beings) and the relations between them.

"Unification in Pretabular Extensions of S4" by Stepan I. Bashmakov
Abstract:  L.L. Maksimova and L. Esakia, V. Meskhi showed that the modal
logic S4 has exactly 5 pretabular extensions PM1–PM5. In this paper, we
study the problem of unification for all given logics. We showed that PM2
and PM3 have finitary, and PM1, PM4, PM5 have unitary types of unification.
Complete sets of unifiers in logics are described.

Logica Universalis Webinar.
It is about the book
"Logic in Question - Talks from the Annual Sorbonne Logic Workshop (2011-
2019)"
published in the book series Studies in Universal Logic (SUL)
https://www.springer.com/series/7391

This book is related to the Workshop "Logic in Question" organized every
Spring at the Sorbonne in Paris since 2011
http://www.logic-in-question.org/
In this workshop all aspects of logic are discussed and we already had
talks by a great variety of speakers from all over the world
http://www.logic-in-question.org/speakers-2011-2019.html
The present book collects not all the talks, but a good number of them. It
is a 750-page book including 38  papers such as:
- "What Is “Ancient Chinese Logic?" by  Guo Zhenzhen
- "Frege’s Silence About Bolzano" by Jan Sebestik
- "The Relevance Logic Programme: Failed or Just Stalled?" by  David
Makinson
- "Contributions of Logical Analysis for Mathematics Education" by  Viviane
Durand-Guerrier
- "Back and Forth in Positive Logic", by Bruno Poizat and Aibat Yeshkeyev
to quote just a few.
This session of the  webinar will be chaired by Razvan Diaconescu, member
of the editorial board of SUL.

There will be a general presentation of the workshop and the book and then
a talk corresponding to one chapter of the book:
- "The Place and Value of Logic in Louis Couturat’s Philosophical Thinking"
by Anne-Françoise Schmid

Louis Couturat was born January 17, 1868 and died August 3 1914.
His world Logic Day Number is therefore B+3
"A confirmed pacifist, he was killed when his car was hit by a car carrying
orders for the mobilization of the French Army, in the first stage of World
War I."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_Couturat
He proposed the word "Logistique"  (Logistics) to name modern logic. He was
close to Bertarnd Russell.

The correspondence between Couturat and Russell, the most important
scientific correspondence of Russell, dealing with all kinds of topics, was
lost under the snow in La-Chaux-de-Fonds in Switzerland. Many years later
It was edited and published by the author of the talk, Anne-Françoise Schmid
Correspondance sur la philosophie, la logique et la politique : Bertrand
Russell et Louis Couturat, 1897-1913
https://www.amazon.fr/Correspondance-sur-philosophie-logique-politique/dp/284174258X
See here the review by Alasdair Urquhart:
https://www.academia.edu/2140956/The_Couturat-Russell_Correspondence_edited_by_Anne-Francoise_Schmid

Couturat  was the creator and promoter of the universal language Ido
Here is the wikipedia page about Couturat in Ido
https://io.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_Couturat
With Léopold Léau he wrote
"Histoire de la Langue Universelle"
https://archive.org/details/histoiredelalang00coutuoft

Couturat published the work of Leibniz on logic which was almost unknown
and wrote:
La logique de Leibniz
https://archive.org/details/lalogiquedeleib00coutgoog/page/n4/mode/2up

By Anne-Françoise Schmid (together with Oliver Schlaudt)
there is the book (also published by Birkhäuser):

Manuscripts

Re: [PEIRCE-L] Sense and the Making of Sense / St. Petersburg State University, June 2-4

2022-06-01 Thread jean-yves beziau
Dear Jerry
I started with a very simple and intuitive triple:
word / idea / thing
(or in a  more general setting: language / thought / reality).
One may ask if this forms a full Venn diagram (each part is non empty).
Or using the theory of opposition, if this forms a triangle of contrariety
or a triangle of subcontrariety.
But my main point in "The Pyramid of Meaning" is to consider that there is
something above this triangle joining the three elements of the triple. I
call it 'notion'.
To do that I was directly inspired by Saussure. Saussure is very famous,
but not so many people  know that Saussure uses "sign" to denote  the whole
signifier/signified (signifiant/signifié). This use of 'sign' does not
correspond to the standard use of the word which is rather on the side of
the signifier. Saussure makes the following comment about his use of
'sign': "if I am satisfied with it, this is simply because I do not know of
any word to replace it, the ordinary language suggesting no other."
This is a kind of default choice. Maybe a not so good choice, but it is
true that it is not clear what would be the best word, unless creating one.
Anyway the excellent idea of Saussure was to consider on the one hand the
distinction  signifier/signified, and on the other hand  to also consider
the whole, giving it a name.
So I was directly inspired by him and I decided to choose the word "notion"
for the whole word/idea/thing.
Then the shape of the pyramid came naturally. Most real pyramids have
square bases, but mathematically speaking a pyramid can have any polygon as
a basis. If we have a triangular basis, the pyramid is  a tetrahedron, a
simplex, as I explain in my paper:

[PEIRCE-L] LUW May 18: Logical Diagrams, Visualization Criteria and Boolean Algebras by Roland Bolz

2022-05-16 Thread jean-yves beziau
Logica Universalis Webinar, Wednesday May 18, 4pm CET

Speaker: Roland Bolz (Humboldt University, Berlin, Germany)
Title: Logical Diagrams, Visualization Criteria and Boolean Algebras
Abstract: This paper presents logical diagrams as attempts to visualize
facts about logical/linguistic/conceptual systems. It introduces four
criteria for assessing visualization: 1) completeness, 2) correctness, 3)
lack of distortion, and 4) legibility. It then  presents well-known
families of diagrams, based on the geometrical figures of a) the hexagon,
and b) the tetrakis hexahedron. These are usually presented as exemplary
diagrams. To understand better why they succeed so well at visualizing
logical information, they are presented as visualizations of complete
(finite) Boolean algebras. This also establishes the connection between the
combinatorial concept of partition and the logical concept of opposition
(i.e. contradiction, contrariness, and subcontrariness). Finally, the paper
suggests that the two geometrical figures in question are part of a larger
family of polytopes with deep connections to Boolean algebras.

[PEIRCE-L] LUW May 11: On Nonmonotonic Consequence Relations by Alexei Muravitsky

2022-05-10 Thread jean-yves beziau
This coming Wednesday, May 11 at 4pm CET,
we will have the next session of the Logica Universalis Webinar with a talk
by
Alexei Muravitsky
Louisiana Scholars’ College, Northwestern State University, USA
https://my.nsula.edu/my/mobile/faculty/facprofile.php?fid=alexeim
Title: "On Nonmonotonic Consequence Relations''
Abstract: We discuss nonmonotonic reasoning in terms of consequence
relations and corresponding operators. Based on the matrix consequence that
gives the monotonic case, we define a restricted matrix consequence that
illustrates the nonmonotonic case. The latter is a generalization of the
relation of logical friendliness introduced by D. Makinson. We prove that
any restricted single matrix consequence, although it may be nonmonotonic,
is always weakly monotonic and, in the case of a finite matrix, the
restricted matrix consequence is very strongly finitary. Further, by
modifying the definition of logical friendliness relation formulated
specifically in a proof-theoretic manner, we show a possibility of
obtaining other reflexive nonmonotonic consequence relations, for which a
limited result towards finitariness is proved. This leads to numerous
questions about nonmonotonic consequence relations in the segment between
the monotonic consequence relation based on intuitionistic propositional
logic and logical friendliness.

Like in previous editions of UNILOG, we will have a Secret Speaker, a
Speaker whose identity is revealed only at the time of her/his/its talk.
Previous secret speakers at UNILOG include Saul Kripke and Jaakko Hintikka.

Guess who  is the Secret Speaker and win a trip to the 8th UNILOG in Cusco,
Peru !
The game is open to the participants of UNILOG'2022 but also to anybody in
the world.
The winner will be the first to find the correct answer. Check the result
by watching the lecture of the Secret Speaker at UNILOG'2022.

The talk will be Sunday 10 of April at 5pm Greek time at UNILOG'2022 in
Crete.

gations are not algebraizable”, Notre
Dame Journal of Formal Logic, 39 (1998), pp.135-139.
https://www.jyb-logic.org/idempotent.pdf
When I was working with Tel-Aviv in 1995-96 with Arnon Avron within the
Marie-Curie GeTFun project led by João Marcos and Carlos Caleiro
http://sqig.math.ist.utl.pt/GeTFun
I asked Arnon if it would be possible to have a self-extensional logic
three-valued paraconsistent logic with a standard implication and the
result is no! :
A.Avron and J.-Y.Beziau, “Self-extensional three-valued paraconsistent
logics have no implication”, Logic Journal of the IGPL, Volume 25, Issue 2
(April 2017), pp.183-194.
https://academic.oup.com/jigpal/article-abstract/25/2/183/2739325/Self-extensional-three-valued-paraconsistent?redirectedFrom=fulltext=false
I then asked him about such a situation for four-valued matrix semantics,
and later on he published the paper, giving a positive answer to the
question:
"The Normal and Self-extensional Extension of Dunn–Belnap Logic"
https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11787-020-00254-1
Arnon Avroin will also be a keynote speaker of WCP6
Coming back to S5, it has not only good formal properties but the
paraconsistent negation of Z has a good intuitive motivation /
interpretation, as shown by the reconstruction of S5 through Z.
So at the end I think S5 is one of the best paraconsistent logic ! (it has
a paracomplete negation too, not possible).

I also worked on the fundamental  philosophical aspects of paraconsistent
logic, may main contributions are the two following papers
"Cats that are not cats - Towards a natural philosophy of paraconsistency"

"Round Squares are no Contradictions"

[PEIRCE-L] LUW Fev 09 2022 An Intuitionist Reasoning Upon Formal Intuitionist Logic: Logical Analysis of Kolmogorov’s 1932 Paper

2022-02-08 Thread jean-yves beziau
After the session of January 14, celebrating the World Logic Day
https://www.logica-universalis.org/wld4
we are now starting for the 2nd year regular sessions of the Logica
Universalis Webinar two times a month.
The next session will be Wednesday February 9, 2022 at 4pm
with a talk by Antonino Drago (University “Federico II” of Naples, Italy)
"An Intuitionist Reasoning Upon Formal Intuitionist Logic: Logical Analysis
of Kolmogorov’s 1932 Paper"
Abstract: Two dichotomies are considered as the foundations of a scientific
theory: the kind of infinity—either potential or actual-, and the kind of
organization of the theory—axiomatic or problem-based. The original
intuitionist program relied on the choices of potential infinity and the
problem-based organization. I show that the logical theory of Kolmogorov’s
1932 paper relied on the same choices. A comparison of all other theories
sharing the same foundational choices allows us to characterize their
common theoretical development through a few logical steps. The theory
illustrated by Kolmogorov’s paper is then rationally re-constructed
according to the steps of this kind of development. One obtains a new
foundation of intuitionist logic, which is of a structural kind since it is
based on and developed according to the structure of the above mentioned
two fundamental choices. In addition, Kolmogorov’s illustration of his
theory of intuitionist logic is an instance of rigorous reasoning of the
intuitionist kind.

[PEIRCE-L] Decolonizing “Natural Logic” / Logical Skills / LUWebinar Dec 15, 4 pm CET

2021-12-14 Thread jean-yves beziau
This coming Wednesday, Dec 15,  in the Logica Universalis Webinar, we will
have the presentation of the book

Logical Skills
edited by Julie Brumberg-Chaumont & Claude Rosental
https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-030-58446-7
published in the book series Studies in Universal Logic
https://www.springer.com/series/7391

and a talk based on one of the chapters of this book

Decolonizing “Natural Logic”
by  Scott L. Prat
“Natural logic” was proposed by Lewis Henry Morgan (1818–1881) as the
engine of cultural evolution, concluding that the “course and manner” of
cultural development “was predetermined, as well as restricted within
narrow limits of divergence, by the natural logic of the human mind.” This
essay argues that Morgan’s conception of natural logic aids the project of
settler colonialism. Rather than being a false account of human agency,
however, it is a conception of natural logic that is produced through the
systematic narrowing of possibilities for agency, human, and otherwise.
This narrowed logic is thus only a part of a differently conceived logic of
agency that is also general (and so serves as the framework for all action)
and normative (albeit with a set of norms different from those identified
by Morgan). The discussion proceeds in four sections: first, a presentation
of Morgan’s conception of natural logic and its origins; second, an
analysis of four colonizing implications of Morgan’s view; third, examples
of further developments of natural logic in the twentieth and twenty-first
centuries in the work structuralist and post-structuralist theorists; and,
last, a brief introduction of a decolonial logic that provides a broader
alternative conception of the structure of agency, human, and otherwise,
and that avoids the oppressive effects of the reductionism of the natural
logic received from Morgan and his successors.

[PEIRCE-L] UNILOG'2022: Ready to go? Early Bird Registration Fee: Dec 15

2021-12-13 Thread jean-yves beziau
Dear Colleagues

We are working on the preparation of UNILOG'2022 and the conditions are
good.
The COVID-19  has always been weak in Crete. The event will be 100% in
person.
The doors of the Island were open to tourism last summer without problem
and the conference center, near Chania,  where UNILOG'2022 will take place
has already resumed its activities a couple of months ago.
Note also that the event will take place in the first half of April, before
the start of the tourist season.
UNILOG 2022 is organized under the Aegis of  the Government of Crete.
Crete is an island with a history of about 5.000 years, cradle of Western
civilization, including the Labyrinth, Plato's cave and much more.
Everybody is welcome to join and enjoy this wonderful place.
The deadline for early bird registration fee is December 15:
https://sites.google.com/view/unilog-2022/registration

UNILOG is a series of events (combining a congress and a school)  promoting
- logic in all its aspects: mathematical, philosophical, computational,
semiotic, historical
- the relations between logic and other fields

7th UNIVERSAL LOGIC SCHOOL
The school will have a duration of 5 days: from April 1st to April 5, 2022
with:
- an opening round table on the topic "Why study logic?"
- 30 tutorials
- a closing session about how to publish

7th UNIVERSAL LOGIC CONGRESS
The congress will have a duration of 6 days: from April 6 to April 11 2022,
with
- keynote speakers
- contributing speakers
- workshops
- a secret speaker (as in previous editions),  i.e. a speaker whose
identity is revealed only at the time of his/her/its talk or after
- a contest

2nd WORLD LOGIC PRIZES CONTEST
The 1st World Logic Prizes Contest took place in Vichy, France, during the
6th UNILOG in 2018.
This contest is a competition between winners of logic prizes of different
countries.
The winner is awarded the Universal Logic Prize.

There will also be:
- a session honoring recently deceased colleagues, participants of previous
UNILOGs: Mike Dunn (1941-2021) and  John Cororan (1937-2021)
- a book exhibition and some book launches

We look forward to seeing you in Crete next April !

[PEIRCE-L] LUW Dec 8, 4pm CET / Measuring Inconsistency in Generalized Propositional Logic

2021-12-07 Thread jean-yves beziau
The next Logica Universalis Webinar session will take place next
Wednesday,  Dec 8, at 4pm CET with the talk
 "Measuring Inconsistency in Generalized Propositional Logic"
by John Grant (University of Maryland, USA)

Abstract: Consistency is one of the key concepts of logic; logicians have
put a great deal of effort into proving the consistency of many logics.
Understanding what causes inconsistency is also important; some logicians
have developed paraconsistent logics that, unlike classical logics, allow
some contradictions without making all formulas provable. Another direction
of research studies inconsistency by measuring the amount of inconsistency
of sets of formulas. While the initial attempt in 1978 was too ambitious in
trying to do this for first-order logic, this research got a substantial
boost when an inconsistency measure was proposed for propositional logic in
2002. Since then, researchers in logic and artificial intelligence (AI
systems need the capability to deal with inconsistency) have made many
interesting proposals and found related issues. Almost all of this work has
been done for propositional logic. The purpose of this paper is to extend
inconsistency measures to logics that also contain operators, such as modal
operators. We use the terminology “generalized propositional logic” for
such logics. We show how to extend propositional inconsistency measures to
sets of formulas in any such generalized propositional logic. Examples are
used to illustrate how various modal operators, including spatial and tense
operators, fit into this framework. We also show that the addition of
operators leads to a weak type of inconsistency. In all cases, the
calculations for several inconsistency measures are given.

[PEIRCE-L] LUW Nov 17, 4pm CET / Correspondence Analysis for Some Fragments of Classical Propositional Logic

2021-11-16 Thread jean-yves beziau
The next Logica Universalis Webinar session will take place next
Wednesday,  Nov 17, at 4pm CET with the talk
 "Correspondence Analysis for Some Fragments of Classical Propositional
Logic"
by Yaroslav Petrukhin (University of Łódź, Poland) and Vasilyi Shangin
(Lomonosov Moscow State University, Russia)

Abstract: We apply Kooi and Tamminga’s correspondence analysis (that has
been previously applied to some notable three- and four-valued logics) to
some conventional and functionally incomplete fragments of classical
propositional logic. In particular, the paper deals with the implication,
disjunction, and negation fragments. Additionally, we consider an
application of correspondence analysis to some connectiveless fragment with
certain basic properties of the logical consequence relation only. As a
result of the application, one obtains a sound and complete natural
deduction system for any binary extension of each fragment in question.
With the focus on exclusive disjunction we comparatively study the proposed

negation fragments and compare them with our systems.

[PEIRCE-L] LUW - November 10 - Calculi for Many-Valued Logics by Michael Kaminski and Nissim Francez

2021-11-09 Thread jean-yves beziau
The next session of LUW (Logica Universalis Webinar) will take place this
coming Wednesday, November 10,  at 4pm CET

Title of the Talk: Calculi for Many-Valued Logics
Authors:Michael Kaminski and Nissim Francez
Abstract:  We present a number of equivalent calculi for many-valued logics
and prove soundness and strong completeness theorems. The calculi are
obtained from the truth tables of the logic under consideration in a
straightforward manner and there is a natural duality among these calculi.
We also prove the cut elimination theorems for the sequent-like systems.

"Why Make Things Simple When You Can Make Them Complicated? An Appreciation
of Lewis Carroll’s Symbolic Logic"
Logica Universalis, volume 15, pages359–379 (2021)
https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11787-021-00286-1
Lewis Carroll (1832–1898) published a system of logic in the symbolic
tradition that developed in his time. Carroll’s readers may be puzzled by
his system. On the one hand, it introduced innovations, such as his logic
notation, his diagrams and his method of trees, that secure Carroll’s place
on the path that shaped modern logic. On the other hand, Carroll maintained
the existential import of universal affirmative Propositions, a feature
that is rather characteristic of traditional logic. The object of this
paper is to untangle this dilemma by exploring Carroll’s guidelines in the
design of his logic, and in particular his theory of existential import. It
will be argued that Carroll’s view reflected his belief in the social
utility of symbolic logic.

"k-Provability in PA"
Logica Universalis, On-line first June 09, 2021
https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11787-021-00278-1

We study the decidability of k-provability in PA—the relation ‘being
provable in PA with at most k steps’—and the decidability of the
proof-skeleton problem—the problem of deciding if a given formula has a
proof that has a given skeleton (the list of axioms and rules that were
used). The decidability of k-provability for the usual Hilbert-style
formalisation of PA is still an open problem, but it is known that the
proof-skeleton problem is undecidable for that theory. Using new methods,
we present a characterisation of some numbers k for which k-provability is
decidable, and we present a characterisation of some proof-skeletons for
which one can decide whether a formula has a proof whose skeleton is the
considered one. These characterisations are natural and parameterised by
unification algorithms.

[PEIRCE-L] Logic and Love - Workshop at UNILOG'2022 - Crete

2021-09-20 Thread jean-yves beziau
The 7th UNILOG will take place in the beautiful island of Crete in April
2022
https://sites.google.com/view/unilog-2022/
Besides the main session there will be about 20 Workshops, among them:

WORKSHOP ON LOGIC & LOVE
Love and Logic can be seen as opposed or intertwined. If human beings are
characterized as rational animals and if love is considered as a typical
feature of those animals, there must be some connections between the two.
The aim of this workshop is to investigate these connections.
Those interested in logic and love are invited to submit their proposals on
any aspect related to this subject. Topics may include, but are not
restricted to:
• Reason. Emotion, Irrationality of Love
• The Mechanisms of Love
• Passion for Logic
• Logic, Symbolism of Love
•  Love, Chance and Logic
• The Implications and Consequences of Love
• Love and Contradiction
• The Logical Relations between the different Kinds of Love
• Universal Love and Universal Logic
Submission deadline: October 15, 2021, see details here:
