Goal-Directed Proof Theory Paperback / softback
by Dov M. Gabbay, N. Olivetti
Part of the Applied Logic Series series
Paperback / softback
Description
Goal Directed Proof Theory presents a uniform and coherent methodology for automated deduction in non-classical logics, the relevance of which to computer science is now widely acknowledged. The methodology is based on goal-directed provability.
It is a generalization of the logic programming style of deduction, and it is particularly favourable for proof search.
The methodology is applied for the first time in a uniform way to a wide range of non-classical systems, covering intuitionistic, intermediate, modal and substructural logics.
The book can also be used as an introduction to these logical systems form a procedural perspective. Readership: Computer scientists, mathematicians and philosophers, and anyone interested in the automation of reasoning based on non-classical logics.
The book is suitable for self study, its only prerequisite being some elementary knowledge of logic and proof theory.
