1 Mathematical Logic Part Two
2 Recap from Last Time
3 Recap So Far A propositional variable a variable that either true or false. The propositional connectives are as follows: Negation: p Conjunction: p q Djunction: p q Implication: p q Biconditional: p q True: False:

8 First-Order Logic
9 What First-Order Logic? First-order logic a logical system for reasoning about properties of objects. Augments the logical connectives from propositional logic with predicates that describe properties of objects, functions that map objects to one another, and quantifiers that allow us to reason about multiple objects.
10 Some Examples
11 Likes(You, ComicBooks) Likes(You, GoodMovies) Likes(You, AwesomeWomenInTech) Likes(You, BlackPanther) Learns(You, Htory) ForeverRepeats(You, Htory) DrinksTooMuch(Me) IsAnIssue(That) IsOkay(Me)
12 Likes(You, Eggs) Likes(You, Tomato) Likes(You, Shakshuka) Learns(You, Htory) ForeverRepeats(You, Htory) In(MyHeart, Havana) TookBackTo(Him, Me, EastAtlanta)
13 Likes(You, Eggs) Likes(You, Tomato) Likes(You, Shakshuka) Learns(You, Htory) ForeverRepeats(You, Htory) In(MyHeart, Havana) TookBackTo(Him, Me, EastAtlanta)
14 Likes(You, Eggs) Likes(You, Tomato) Likes(You, Shakshuka) Learns(You, Htory) ForeverRepeats(You, Htory) In(MyHeart, Havana) TookBackTo(Him, Me, EastAtlanta) These These blue blue terms terms are are called called constant constant symbols. symbols. Unlike Unlike propositional propositional variables, variables, they they refer refer to to objects, objects, not not propositions. propositions.
15 Likes(You, Eggs) Likes(You, Tomato) Likes(You, Shakshuka) Learns(You, Htory) ForeverRepeats(You, Htory) In(MyHeart, Havana) TookBackTo(Him, Me, EastAtlanta)
16 Likes(You, Eggs) Likes(You, Tomato) Likes(You, Shakshuka) Learns(You, Htory) ForeverRepeats(You, Htory) In(MyHeart, Havana) TookBackTo(Him, Me, EastAtlanta) The The red red things things that that look look like like function function calls calls are are called called predicates. predicates. Predicates Predicates take take objects objects as as arguments arguments and and evaluate evaluate to to true true or or false. false.
17 Likes(You, Eggs) Likes(You, Tomato) Likes(You, Shakshuka) Learns(You, Htory) ForeverRepeats(You, Htory) In(MyHeart, Havana) TookBackTo(Him, Me, EastAtlanta)
18 Likes(You, Eggs) Likes(You, Tomato) Likes(You, Shakshuka) Learns(You, Htory) ForeverRepeats(You, Htory) In(MyHeart, Havana) TookBackTo(Him, Me, EastAtlanta) What What remains remains are are traditional traditional propositional propositional connectives. connectives. Because Because each each predicate predicate evaluates evaluates to to true true or or false, false, we we can can connect connect the the truth truth values values of of predicates predicates using using normal normal propositional propositional connectives. connectives.
19 Reasoning about Objects To reason about objects, first-order logic uses predicates. Examples: Cute(Quokka) Likes(DrLee, CS103) Likes(DrLee, Quokka) Cute(Mosquito) Likes(DrLee, Mosquito) Applying a predicate to arguments produces a proposition, which either true or false. Typically, when you re working in FOL, you ll have a lt of predicates, what they stand for, and how many arguments they take. It ll be given separately than the formulas you write.
20 First-Order Sentences Sentences in first-order logic can be constructed from predicates applied to objects: Cute(a) Dikdik(a) Kitty(a) Puppy(a) Succeeds(You) Practices(You) x < 8 x < 137 The The less-than less-than sign sign just just another another predicate. predicate. Binary Binary predicates predicates are are sometimes sometimes written written in in infix infix notation notation th th way. way. Numbers Numbers are are not not built built in in to to first-order first-order logic. logic. They re They re constant constant symbols symbols just just like like You You and and a a above. above.
21 Equality First-order logic equipped with a special predicate = that says whether two objects are equal to one another. Equality a part of first-order logic, just as and are. Examples: TomMarvoloRiddle = LordVoldemort MorningStar = EveningStar Equality can only be applied to objects; to state that two propositions are equal, use.
22 Let's see some more examples.
23 FavoriteMovieOf(You) FavoriteMovieOf(Date) StarOf(FavoriteMovieOf(You)) = StarOf(FavoriteMovieOf(Date))
24 FavoriteMovieOf(You) FavoriteMovieOf(Date) StarOf(FavoriteMovieOf(You)) = StarOf(FavoriteMovieOf(Date))
25 FavoriteMovieOf(You) FavoriteMovieOf(Date) StarOf(FavoriteMovieOf(You)) = StarOf(FavoriteMovieOf(Date))
26 FavoriteMovieOf(You) FavoriteMovieOf(Date) StarOf(FavoriteMovieOf(You)) = StarOf(FavoriteMovieOf(Date))
27 FavoriteMovieOf(You) FavoriteMovieOf(Date) StarOf(FavoriteMovieOf(You)) = StarOf(FavoriteMovieOf(Date)) These These purple purple terms terms are are functions. functions. Functions Functions take take objects objects as as input input and and produce produce objects objects as as output. output.
28 FavoriteMovieOf(You) FavoriteMovieOf(Date) StarOf(FavoriteMovieOf(You)) = StarOf(FavoriteMovieOf(Date))
29 FavoriteMovieOf(You) FavoriteMovieOf(Date) StarOf(FavoriteMovieOf(You)) = StarOf(FavoriteMovieOf(Date))
30 FavoriteMovieOf(You) FavoriteMovieOf(Date) StarOf(FavoriteMovieOf(You)) = StarOf(FavoriteMovieOf(Date))
31 Functions First-order logic allows functions that return objects associated with other objects. Examples: ColorOf(Sky) MedianOf(x, y, z) x + y As with predicates, functions can take in any number of arguments, but always return a single value. Functions evaluate to objects, not propositions.
32 Objects and Predicates When working in first-order logic, be careful to keep objects (actual things) and predicates (true or false) separate. You cannot apply connectives to objects: Venus TheSun You cannot apply functions to propositions: StarOf(IsRed(Sun) IsGreen(Mars)) Ever get confused? Just ask!
33 The Type-Checking Table operate on... and produce Connectives (,, etc.) propositions a proposition Predicates (=, etc.) objects a proposition Functions objects an object

68 Some Technical Details
69 Variables and Quantifiers Each quantifier has two parts: the variable that introduced, and the statement that's being quantified. The variable introduced scoped just to the statement being quantified. ( x. Loves(You, x)) ( y. Loves(y, You))
70 Variables and Quantifiers Each quantifier has two parts: the variable that introduced, and the statement that's being quantified. The variable introduced scoped just to the statement being quantified. ( x. Loves(You, x)) ( y. Loves(y, You)) The The variable variable x x just just lives lives here. here. The The variable variable y y just just lives lives here. here.
71 Variables and Quantifiers Each quantifier has two parts: the variable that introduced, and the statement that's being quantified. The variable introduced scoped just to the statement being quantified. ( x. Loves(You, x)) ( y. Loves(y, You))
72 Variables and Quantifiers Each quantifier has two parts: the variable that introduced, and the statement that's being quantified. The variable introduced scoped just to the statement being quantified. ( x. Loves(You, x)) ( x. Loves(x, You))
73 Variables and Quantifiers Each quantifier has two parts: the variable that introduced, and the statement that's being quantified. The variable introduced scoped just to the statement being quantified. ( x. Loves(You, x)) ( x. Loves(x, You)) The The variable variable x x just just lives lives here. here. A different different variable, variable, also also named named x, x, just just lives lives here. here.
74 Operator Precedence (Again) When writing out a formula in first-order logic, quantifiers have precedence just below. The statement x. P(x) R(x) Q(x) parsed like th: ( x. P(x)) (R(x) Q(x)) Th syntactically invalid because the variable x out of scope in the back half of the formula. To ensure that x properly quantified, explicitly put parentheses around the region you want to quantify: x. (P(x) R(x) Q(x))
75 For any natural number n, n even iff n 2 even
76 For any natural number n, n even iff n 2 even n. (n N (Even(n) Even(n 2 )))
77 For any natural number n, n even iff n 2 even n. (n N (Even(n) Even(n 2 ))) the the universal universal quantifier quantifier and and says says for for any any choice choice of of n, n, the the following following true. true.
78 The Universal Quantifier A statement of the form x. some-formula true if, for every choice of x, the statement some-formula true when x plugged into it. Examples: p. (Puppy(p) Cute(p)) m. (IsMillennial(m) IsSpecial(m)) Tallest(SultanKösen) x. (SultanKösen x ShorterThan(x, SultanKösen))

107 Translating into First-Order Logic
108 Translating Into Logic First-order logic an excellent tool for manipulating definitions and theorems to learn more about them. Need to take a negation? Translate your statement into FOL, negate it, then translate it back. Want to prove something by contrapositive? Translate your implication into FOL, take the contrapositive, then translate it back.
109 Translating Into Logic Translating statements into first-order logic a lot more difficult than it looks. There are a lot of nuances that come up when translating into first-order logic. We'll cover examples of both good and bad translations into logic so that you can learn what to watch for. We'll also show lots of examples of translations so that you can see the process that goes into it.
110 Using the predicates - Puppy(p), which states that p a puppy, and - Cute(x), which states that x cute, write a sentence in first-order logic that means all puppies are cute. Which Which of of these these first-order first-order logic logic statements statements a proper proper translation? translation? A. A. p. p. (Puppy(p) (Puppy(p) Cute(p)) Cute(p)) B. B. p. p.
