\section{Logical Algebra}
|
||||
|
||||
\definition{}
|
||||
Odds are, you are familiar with \textit{logical symbols}. \par
|
||||
In this handout, we'll use the following:
|
||||
\begin{itemize}
|
||||
\item $\lnot$: not
|
||||
\item $\land$: and
|
||||
\item $\lor$: or
|
||||
\item $\rightarrow$: implies
|
||||
\item $()$, parenthesis.
|
||||
\end{itemize}
|
||||
|
||||
The function of these is defined by \textit{truth tables}:
|
||||
\begin{center}
|
||||
\begin{tabular}{ c | c | c }
|
||||
\multicolumn{3}{ c }{and} \\
|
||||
\hline
|
||||
$A$ & $B$ & $A \land B$ \\
|
||||
\hline
|
||||
F & F & F \\
|
||||
F & T & F \\
|
||||
T & F & F \\
|
||||
T & T & T
|
||||
\end{tabular}
|
||||
\hfill
|
||||
\begin{tabular}{ c | c | c }
|
||||
\multicolumn{3}{ c }{or} \\
|
||||
\hline
|
||||
$A$ & $B$ & $A \lor B$ \\
|
||||
\hline
|
||||
F & F & F \\
|

F & T & T \\
|

T & F & T \\
|

T & T & T
|

\end{tabular}

\hfill

\begin{tabular}{ c | c | c }
|

\multicolumn{3}{ c }{implies} \\
|

\hline
|

$A$ & $B$ & $A \rightarrow B$ \\
|
||||
\hline
|

F & F & T \\
|
||||
F & T & T \\
|
||||
T & F & F \\
|
||||
T & T & T
|

\end{tabular}
|

\hfill
|

\begin{tabular}{ c | c }
|

\multicolumn{2}{ c }{not} \\

$A$ & $\lnot A$ \\

|

~ & ~ \\

\end{tabular}
|

\end{center}
|

|
||||
\vspace{2mm}
|
||||
|
||||
$A \land B$ is only true if both $A$ and $B$ are true. $A \lor B$ is only true if $A$ or $B$ (or both) are true. \par
|
||||
$\lnot A$ is the opposite of $A$, which is why it looks like a \say{negative} sign. \par
|
||||
|
||||
\vspace{2mm}
|
||||
|
||||
$A \rightarrow B$ is a bit harder to understand. Read aloud, this is \say{$A$ implies $B$.} \par
|
||||
The only time $\rightarrow$ is false is when $T \rightarrow F$. Think about it: why does this make sense? \par
|
||||
|
||||
\problem{}
|
||||
Evaluate the following.
|
||||
\begin{itemize}
|
||||
\item $(T \land F) \lor T$
|
||||
\item $(\lnot (F \lor \lnot T) ) \rightarrow T$
|
||||
\item $A \rightarrow T$ for any $A$
|
||||
\item $(\lnot (A \rightarrow B)) \rightarrow A$ for any $A,B$
|
||||
\end{itemize}
|
||||
|
||||
\vfill
|
||||
\pagebreak
|
||||
|
||||
\problem{}
|
||||
Show that $\lnot (A \rightarrow \lnot B)$ is equivalent to $A \land B$. \par
|
||||
\hint{Use a truth table}
|
||||
|
||||
\vfill
|
||||
|
||||
\problem{}
|
||||
Can you express $A \lor B$ using only $\lnot$, $\rightarrow$, and $()$?
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{solution}
|
||||
$((\lnot A) \rightarrow B)$
|
||||
\end{solution}
|
||||
|
||||
\vfill
|
||||
|
||||
Note that both $\land$ and $\lor$ can be defined using the other logical symbols. \par
|
||||
The only logical symbols we \textit{need} are $\lnot$, $\rightarrow$, and $()$. \par
|
||||
We include $\land$ and $\lor$ to simplify our logical expressions.

\section{Structures}
|
||||
|
||||
\definition{}<def:language>
|
||||
A \textit{language} is a set of meaningless symbols. Here are a few examples:
|
||||
\begin{itemize}
|
||||
\item $\{a, b, ..., z\}$
|
||||
\item $\{0, 1\}$
|
||||
\item $\mathbb{Z}$, $\mathbb{R}$, etc.
|
||||
\end{itemize}
|
||||
|
||||
Every language comes with the equality check $=$, which checks if two elements are the same.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
\definition{}
|
||||
A \textit{structure} over a language $\mathcal{L}$ consists of three sets:
|
||||
\begin{itemize}
|
||||
\item A set of \textit{constant symbols} $\mathcal{C}$ \par
|
||||
Constant symbols let us specify specific elements of our language. \par
|
||||
$\mathcal{C}$ must thus be a subset of $\mathcal{L}$.
|
||||
\vspace{3mm}
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
\item A set of \textit{function symbols} $\mathcal{F}$ \par
|
||||
Function symbols let us navigate between elements of our language. \par
|
||||
$+$, $-$ are functions, as are $\sin{x}$, $\cos{x}$, and $\sqrt{x}$ \par
|
||||
Functions take inputs in $\mathcal{L}$ and produce outputs in $\mathcal{L}$.
|
||||
\vspace{3mm}
|
||||
|
||||
\item A set of \textit{relation symbols} $\mathcal{R}$ \par
|
||||
Relation symbols let us compare elements of our language. \par
|
||||
You are already familiar with this concept: $>$, $<$, and $\leq$ are relation symbols. \par
|
||||
$=$ is \textbf{not} a relational symbol. Why? \hint{See \ref{def:language}}
|
||||
|
||||
\end{itemize}
|
||||
|
||||
\vspace{2mm}
|
||||
|
||||
The purpose of a structure is to give a language meaning. This is best explained by example.
|
||||
|
||||
\vspace{3mm}
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
\example{}
|
||||
\def\structgeneric{\ensuremath{}}
|
||||
|
||||
The first structure we'll look at is the following:
|
||||
$$
|
||||
\Bigl(
|
||||
\mathcal{L} ~\big|~ \{\mathcal{C}, ~ \mathcal{F}, ~ \mathcal{R}\}
|
||||
\Bigr)
|
||||
=
|
||||
\Bigl( \mathbb{Z} ~\big|~ \{0, 1, ~ +, -, ~ <\} \Bigr)
|
||||
$$
|
||||
|
||||
\vspace{2mm}
|
||||
|
||||
This is a structure over $\mathbb{Z}$ with the following symbols:
|
||||
\begin{itemize}
|
||||
\item $\mathcal{C} = \{0, 1\}$ \tab \note{(constants)}
|
||||
\item $\mathcal{F} = \{+, -\}$ \tab \note{(functions)}
|
||||
\item $\mathcal{R} = \{<\}$ \tab \note{(relations)}
|
||||
\end{itemize}
|
||||
|
||||
\vspace{2mm}
|
||||
|
||||
Let's look at $\mathcal{C}$, our set of constant symbols. The only integers we can directly refer to in this structure are 0 and 1. If we want any others, we must define them using the tools the structure offers.
|
||||
|
||||
\vspace{1mm}
|
||||
|
||||
Say we want the number 2. We could use the function $+$ to define it: $2 \coloneqq [x \text{ where } 1 + 1 = x]$ \par
|
||||
We would write this as $2 \coloneqq [x \text{ where } +(1, 1) = x]$ in proper \say{functional} notation.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
\problem{}
|
||||
Can we define $-1$ in $\Bigl( \mathbb{Z} ~\big|~ \{0, 1, +, -, <\} \Bigr)$? If so, how?
|
||||
|
||||
\vfill
|
||||
|
||||
\problem{}
|
||||
Can we define $-1$ in $\Bigl( \mathbb{Z} ~\big|~ \{0, +, -, <\} \Bigr)$? \par
|
||||
\hint{In this problem, $1$ has been removed from the set of constant symbols.}
|
||||
|
||||
\vfill
|
||||
\pagebreak
|
||||
|
||||
Let us formalize what we found in the previous two problems. \par
|
||||
\say{Definable elements} are one of the two most important ideas in this handout.
|
||||
|
||||
\definition{}
|
||||
A \textit{formula} in a structure $S$ is a well-formed string of constants, functions, and relations. \par
|
||||
|
||||
\vspace{2mm}
|
||||
|
||||
You already know what a \say{well-formed} string is: $1 + 1$ is fine, $\sqrt{+}$ is nonsense. \par
|
||||
For the sake of time, I will not provide a formal definition. It isn't particularly interesting.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
\definition{Definable Elements}
|
||||
Say $S$ is a structure over a language $\mathcal{L}$. \par
|
||||
We say an element $e$ of $\mathcal{L}$ is \textit{definable in $S$} if we can write a formula that only $e$ satisfies.
|
||||
|
||||
\problem{}
|
||||
Can we define 2 in the structure $\Bigl( \mathbb{Z} ~\big|~ \{4, \times \} \Bigr)$?
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{solution}
|
||||
No. We could try $[x \text{ where } x \times x = 4]$, but this is satisfied by both $2$ and $-2$. \\
|
||||
We have no way to distinguish between negative and positive numbers.
|
||||
\end{solution}
|
||||
|
||||
\vfill
|
||||
|
||||
\problem{}
|
||||
Can we define 2 in the structure $\Bigl( \mathbb{Z^+} ~\big|~ \{4, \times \} \Bigr)$? \par
|
||||
\hint{$\mathbb{Z}^+ = \{1, 2, 3, ...\}$}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{solution}
|
||||
Yes! $-2$ no longer exists, so $2$ can be defined by $[x \text{ where } x \times x = 4]$.
|
||||
\end{solution}
|
||||
|
||||
\vfill
|
||||
|
||||
\problem{}
|
||||
What is definable in the structure $\Bigl( \mathbb{R} ~\big|~ \{1, 2, \div \} \Bigr)$?
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{solution}
|
||||
All powers of two, positive and negative.
|
||||
\end{solution}
|
||||
|
||||
\vfill
