命题逻辑

  • simple statement(简单命题): a declarative sentence(a subject with a predicate) that is either true or false
  • connective(联结词): a symbol that connects two statements to form a new statement
  • compound statement(复合命题): a statement that is formed by connecting two or more simple statements using connectives
  • statement(命题): simple statement or compound statement
  • truth values(真值): T(true) or F(false)

  • A statement form(命题形式,命题公式) is an expression involving statement variables and connectives, which can be formed using the rules:
    • (i) Any statement variable is a statement form.
    • (ii) if and are statements forms, then , , , , and are also statement forms.
  • tautology(重言式): a statement form that is true for all possible values of its statement variables
  • contradiction(矛盾式): a statement form that is false for all possible values of its statement variables
  • logically implies(逻辑蕴含): logically implies if is a tautology, denoted as
  • logically equivalent(逻辑等价): and are logically equivalent if is a tautology, denoted as
  • restricted statement forms:在 statement form的基础上限制联结词
  • adequate connectives(完备联结词):An adequate set of connectives is a set such that every truth function canbe represented by a statement form containing only connectives from that set.
  • Argument(论证):An argument is a sequence of statements, are premises(前提), is conclusion(结论)
  • invalid argument(无效论证):A argument is invalid if it is possible to assign truth values to the statement variables occurring in such a way as to make each of take value T and to make take value F; Otherwise the argument form is valid.

性质

  1. 都是重言式,则也是重言式
  2. 用任意statement form替换重言式中的命题变量所得到的statement form仍是重言式。
  3. 中的命题公式,是与等价的命题公式,则用替换中的后得到的命题公式逻辑等价。
  4. 常见完备联结词:
  5. 一个论证是有效的当且仅当是重言式。
