一句话:在可计算泛函理论 TCF 中定义公式与谓词的强否定,并证明其关键逻辑性质与构造性数学适用性。
本文研究如何在可计算泛函理论 TCF(Plotkin PCF 与 Gödel 系统 T 的常见扩展)中融入强否定。作者同时定义公式 A 的强否定 A^N 和谓词 P 的强否定 P^N,并将归纳谓词与余归纳谓词的强否定作为特例。文中证明了强否定下 Ex falso quodlibet 与双重否定消去的相应版本,引入紧公式(由其强否定的弱否定所蕴含的公式)及相对紧公式。通过若干案例与例子,作者展示该定义的自然性,并论证 TCF 可作为 Bishop 式构造性数学的形式系统。
We incorporate strong negation in the theory of computable functionals TCF, a common extension of Plotkin's PCF and G\"{o}del's system $\mathbf{T}$, by defining simultaneously strong negation $A^{\mathbf{N}}$ of a formula $A$ and strong negation $P^{\mathbf{N}}$ of a predicate $P$ in TCF. As a special case of the latter, we get strong negation of an inductive and a coinductive predicate of TCF. We prove appropriate versions of the Ex falso quodlibet and of double negation elimination for strong negation in TCF. We introduce the so-called tight formulas of TCF i.e., formulas implied by the weak negation of their strong negation, and the relative tight formulas. We present various case-studies and examples, which reveal the naturality of our definition of strong negation in TCF and justify the use of TCF as a formal system for a large part of Bishop-style constructive mathematics.
