S(zp, zp): Post-Structural Readings of Gödel’s Proof (Roy Wagner)

S(zp, zp): Post-Structural Readings of Gödel’s Proof (Roy Wagner)

S(zp,zp) performs an innovative analysis of one of modern logic’s most celebrated cornerstones: the proof of Gödel’s first incompleteness theorem. The book applies the semiotic theories of French post- structuralists such as Julia Kristeva, Jacques Derrida and Gilles Deleuze to shed new light on a fundamental question: how do mathematical signs produce meaning and make sense?

S(zp,zp) analyses the text of the proof of Gödel’s result, and shows that mathematical language, like other forms of language, enjoys the full complexity of language as a process, with its embodied genesis, constitutive paradoxical forces and unbounded shifts of meaning...

Perspectives on Universal Logic (Jean-Yves Béziau, Alexandre Costa-Leite eds.)

Perspectives on Universal Logic (Jean-Yves Béziau, Alexandre Costa-Leite eds.)

Universal logic is to logic what universal algebra is to algebra. It is not a specific system of logic that would apply to everything but a general theory of all existing and possible logics. This new field has been slowly emerging through the new directions of research in logic of the past decades and the name was coined 15 years ago. In the Spring of 2005 was organized in Montreux, Switzerland, the First World Congress on Universal Logic. This exciting event gathered more than 200 people from about 40 different countries. Many famous logicians were present there, such as Dov Gabbay, Krister Segerberg, Saul Kripke, Michael Dunn, Jouko Väännänen. Most of the papers in this book arose from talks - and discussions that follow - presented during this event. They are concerned with philosophical...

An Introduction to Partially Ordered Structures and Sheaves (Francisco Miraglia)

An Introduction to Partially Ordered Structures and Sheaves (Francisco Miraglia)

The text is a graduate level presentation of sheaf theory over topological spaces and its generalizations to presheaves over semilattices, Heyting algebras and frames. The development of a Model Theory in the latter setting influenced the selection and the arrangement of the material and themes. There is a comprehensive discussion of the lattice theoretic basis of sheaf theory, including partial orders, distributive lattices, Heyting and Boolean algebras, as well as their complete counterparts. It also includes a presentation of spectral spaces, giving a unified treatment of the spectra of commutative rings and distributive lattices. Presheaves and sheaves over topological spaces, an important geometrical construction, sets the stage for the theory of L-sets, L a semilattice, in which we discuss quantifiers...

The Magic Garden of George B. And Other Logic Puzzles (Raymond Smullyan)

The Magic Garden of George B. And Other Logic Puzzles (Raymond Smullyan)

After a series of light logic puzzles, the author presents a bombshell puzzle so startling that it seems incredible that there could be any solution at all! But there is indeed a solution - moreover, one that requires a chain of lesser puzzles to be solved first. The reader is thus journeyed through a maze of subsidiary problems that has all the earmarks of an entertaining detective story.
Of the author's 20 published books, this is the 11th whose purpose is to lead the unwary reader into deep logical waters through seductively entertaining logic puzzles. The "deep waters" of this book is boolean algebra with such weird looking equations as 1+1=0 - a subject which today plays a vital role, not only in mathematical systems, but also in computer science and artificial intelligence.
