Propositions As Types Analogy • 1

Re: R.J. Lipton • Mathematical Tricks One of my favorite mathematical tricks — it almost seems too tricky to be true — is the Propositions As Types Analogy. And I see hints the 2‑part analogy can be extended to a … Continue reading

Re: Richard J. Lipton • Making Primes More Random There’s a study called generalized primes which investigates in a more general way the relationship between arbitrary elements called primes and the composites which can be formed from them according to … Continue reading

Praeclarum Theorema

The praeclarum theorema, or splendid theorem, is a theorem of propositional calculus that was noted and named by G.W. Leibniz. Continue reading

Logical Graphs • Formal Development

Logical graphs are next presented as a formal system by going back to the initial elements and developing their consequences in a systematic manner. Continue reading

Logical Graphs • Introduction

A logical graph is a graph-theoretic structure in one of the styles of graphical syntax that Charles Sanders Peirce developed for logic. Continue reading
