   Extractions: Jump to: navigation search Mathematical logic is a subfield of logic and mathematics It consists both of the mathematical study of logic and the application of this study to other areas of mathematics. Mathematical logic has close connections to computer science and philosophical logic , as well. Unifying themes in mathematical logic include the expressive power of formal logics and the deductive power of formal proof systems. Since its inception, mathematical logic has contributed to, and has been motivated by, the study of foundations of mathematics . This study began in the late 19th century with the development of axiomatic frameworks for geometry, arithmetic, and analysis. In the early 20th century it was shaped by David Hilbert 's program to prove the consistency of foundational theories. Results of Kurt Gödel Gerhard Gentzen , and others provided partial resolution to the program, and clarified the issues involved in proving consistency. Work in set theory showed that almost all ordinary mathematics can be formalized in terms of sets, although there are some theorems that cannot be proven in common axiom systems for set theory. Contemporary work in the foundations of mathematics often focuses on establishing which parts of mathematics can be formalized in particular formal systems , rather than trying to find theories in which all of mathematics can be developed.

It had no practical applications, and not even that much mathematics to show for itself: its crown was an exceedingly obscure definition of cardinal numbers. When, in 1910, it produced a work which the learned world was forced to notice - the first volume of Whitehead and Russell 's Principia Mathematica - it was, so to speak, the academic Brief History of Time of its day, often mentioned, never used. Our outsider would, of course, have been wrong. Mathematical logic was the inspiration for perhaps only half of twentieth-century philosohpy (that is, of honest philosophy; by volume, as Kolakowski says, Stalin was the century's most influential philosopher); many of our finest mathematicians, such as

   Extractions: MATHEMATICAL LOGIC Last Updated 28/04/05 BACK TO LPSG CONTENTS The Paper Textbooks The paper covers formal methods and results relevant to the philosophy of mathematics and philosophy of logic. It forms a natural pair with the Philosophy of Mathematics paper; each informs the other, but neither depends on the other. Most theories worthy of the name can be formalized. Mathematical logic is about general properties of these formalizations. More specifically, it is about deduction and consistency, about models, truth and consequence, about computability and axiomatizability. Mathematical logic will give one a firm grasp of concepts that are vital for philosopical logic and helpful in philosophy of language: truth, validity, consequence. In a first year introduction to logic, one learns deductive systems for propositional and first order predicate logic. But how do we know that these systems permit us to deduce only what is logically valid (soundness) and all of what is logically valid (completeness)? This course gives the answers. On the way, it presents basic reasoning techniques and basic semantic concepts: interpretation, satisfaction, truth under an interpretation, model. The paper is relatively demanding of one's mathematical abilities, but you do not have to be mathematically learned or clever. Success in the first year Introductory Logic course is pre-requisite. Mathematical logic, as all other mathematical subjects, is not a spectator sport; one must do the problems, as well go through the lecture notes (or textbook) to make sure you understand what is going on, after each lecture. If you keep up with this you are likely to do well in the exam.

   Extractions: POINTERS: Texts Software Web links Selected topics here Mathematical Logic is the study of the processes used in mathematical deduction. The subject has origins in philosophy, and indeed it is only by nonmathematical argument that one can show the usual rules for inference and deduction (law of excluded middle; cut rule; etc.) are valid. It is also a legacy from philosophy that we can distinguish semantic reasoning ("what is true?") from syntactic reasoning ("what can be shown?"). The first leads to Model Theory, the second, to Proof Theory. Students encounter elementary (sentential) logic early in their mathematical training. This includes techniques using truth tables, symbolic logic with only "and", "or", and "not" in the language, and various equivalences among methods of proof (e.g. proof by contradiction is a proof of the contrapositive). This material includes somewhat deeper results such as the existence of disjunctive normal forms for statements. Also fairly straightforward is elementary first-order logic, which adds quantifiers ("for all" and "there exists") to the language. The corresponding normal form is prenex normal form. In second-order logic, the quantifiers are allowed to apply to relations and functions to subsets as well as elements of a set. (For example, the well-ordering axiom of the integers is a second-order statement). So how can we characterize the set of theorems for the theory? The theorems are defined in a purely procedural way, yet they should be related to those statements which are (semantically) "true", that is, statements which are valid in every model of those axioms. With a suitable (and reasonably natural) set of rules of inference, the two notions coincide for any theory in first-order logic: the Soundness Theorem assures that what is provable is true, and the Completeness Theorem assures that what is true is provable. It follows that the set of true first-order statements is effectively enumerable, and decidable: one can deduce in a finite number of steps whether or not such a statement follows from the axioms. So, for example, one could make a countable list of all statements which are true for all groups.

Elementary or "naive" set theory is used to define basic mathematical structures. A set is an arbitrary collection of elements, which may be real or imaginary, physical or abstract. In mathematics, sets are usually composed of abstract things like numbers and points, but one can also talk about sets of apples, oranges, people, or canaries. In computer science, sets are composed of bits, bytes, pointers, and blocks of storage. In many applications, the elements are never defined, but are left as abstractions that could be represented in many different ways in the human brain, on a piece of paper, or in computer storage. Curly braces are used to enclose a set specification. For small, finite sets, the specification of a set can be an exhaustive list of all its elements:

Contacting the author A Problem Course in Mathematical Logic is intended to serve as the text for an introduction to mathematical logic for undergraduates with some mathematical sophistication. It supplies definitions, statements of results, and problems, along with some explanations, examples, and hints. The idea is for the students, individually or in groups, to learn the material by solving the problems and proving the results for themselves. The book should do as the text for a course taught using the modified Moore-method. The material and its presentation are pretty stripped-down and it will probably be desirable for the instructor to supply further hints from time to time or to let the students consult other sources. Various concepts and and topics that are often covered in introductory mathematical logic or computability courses are given very short shrift or omitted entirely, among them normal forms, definability, and model theory.

Ph.D. work in logic can also be carried out entirely within one of the departments of Mathematics, Philosophy, Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences (see Graduate Study in Logic at UC Berkeley ). The program in Logic and the Methodology of Science is intended for students whose interests lie in more than one of these fields. It offers them the possibility of taking qualifying examinations in more than one of these subjects; indeed, they must do so. Dissertations in this program may be interdisciplinary in character; however, they may also lie entirely within just one of these fields. The program is administered by the Group in Logic and the Methodology of Science, an interdepartmental agency which cooperates closely with the Department of Mathematics, the Department of Philosophy, and the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences. The Group Office is located in 731 Evans Hall.
