Logic forms the basis of mathematics, and is hence a fundamental part of any mathematics course, . It is a major element in theoretical computer sciences and has undergone a huge revival with the growing importance of computer science. This text is based on a course for undergraduates and provides a clear and accessible introduction to mathematical logic. The concept of model provides the underlying theme, giving the text a theoretical coherence while still covering a wide area of logic. It starts with recursion theory and follows Godel's incompleteness theorems and axiomatic set theory as well as an introduction to model theory. There are examples throughout each section and a varied selection of exercises at the end with answers given in the appendix
This book is for researchers in computer science, mathematical logic, and philosophical logic. It shows the state of the art in current investigations of process calculi with mainly two major paradigms at work: linear logic and modal logic. The combination of approaches and pointers for further integration also suggests a grander vision for the field.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Conference on Typed Lambda Calculi and Applications, TLCA '97, held in Nancy, France, in April 1997. The 24 revised full papers presented in the book were carefully selected from a total of 54 submissions. The book reports the main research advances achieved in the area of typed lambda calculi since the predecessor conference, held in 1995, and competently reflects the state of the art in the area.
This volume gives an overview of linear logic that will be useful to mathematicians and computer scientists working in this area.
This volume invites you to wander through the shadows of the City of Light and discover another, often invisible and silent Paris. Its chapters explore Parisian margins, including various populations, spaces and practices, as represented in French literature and cinema since 1800. You will take a peek at the Parisians’ criminal activities and nocturnal lives in the nineteenth century, and witness how industrialization and capitalism between the 1850s and the 1970s reshaped the socioeconomic map of the city by creating or reinforcing spaces of social inequity. You will also meet marginalized groups that are often ignored or neglected in today’s Paris—and French society—including the LGBTQIA+, Black and immigrant communities.
In Communes and Conflict, Jan Dumolyn and Jelle Haemers explore the urban rebellions that regularly erupted in Flanders between the thirteenth and sixteenth centuries. They analyse not only how these rebellions were sparked and repressed, but also how they shaped the culture and identity of Flemish townspeople. Drawing from a wide range of theoretical methods and concepts, including those of discourse analysis, semiotics, speech acts, collective memory and material cultural studies, the authors return to key Marxist questions on ideology, labour and class interest to map the perspectives of the rebels, the urban patriciate and the Flemish and Burgundian nobility.
