Differential Propositional Calculus • 1

A differential propositional calculus is a propositional calculus extended by a set of terms for describing aspects of change and difference, for example, processes taking place in a universe of discourse or transformations mapping a source universe to a target universe.

Casual Introduction

Consider the situation represented by the venn diagram in Figure 1.

Figure 1. Local Habitations, And Names
\text{Figure 1. Local Habitations, And Names}

The area of the rectangle represents the universe of discourse X.  The universe under discussion may be a population of individuals having various additional properties or it may be a collection of locations occupied by various individuals.  The area of the “circle” represents the individuals with the property q or the locations in the corresponding region Q.  Four individuals, a, b, c, d, are singled out by name.  As it happens, b and c currently reside in region Q while a and d do not.
