This workshop deals with paraconsistency and its relationship to computational logic. The "ex falso quodlibet" rule of classical logic predicts that everything (i.e., nothing useful at all) would follow from the least bit of inconsistency. Although logical data consistency is a requirement of high priority in all of computing, 100% consistency is almost never given in practice. Taking logic seriously, this means nothing less than a complete mismatch of theory and practice, which in fact profoundly challenges the legitimacy of logical foundations of computing in general. Paraconsistent logic offers a way out of this dilemma. Unlike classical logic, paraconsistency is compatible with the fact that, despite ubiquitous inconsistencies, most computing systems in practice usually are able to provide meaningful information. It seems that this mismatch has never been bothering the community of computational logic to any significant degree. However, this phenomenon has been more attentively observed in the field of mathematical and philosophical logic. Around the middle of last century, Stanislaw Jaskowski and Newton da Costa have shown that inconsistency needs not be identified with ex falso quodlibet. They devised paraconsistent logics to cater for inconsistent yet useful theories. While the potential of paraconsistency to study, explain and improve the behavior of inconsistent systems has been widely recognized in philosophical circles, it has not (yet) enjoyed a broad-scale uptake in computational logic.

I am a Professor of Philosophy at the Department of Philosophy at the University of Miami , an extremely congenial and stimulating place to do philosophy. Most of my work focuses on philosophy of science, philosophy of mathematics, and philosophy of logic. I have been trying to develop an empiricist view about science that is compatible with a nominalist view about mathematics and logic. Not an easy task, but one that has led me to explore also a number of fascinating and interrelated issues in metaphysics, epistemology, and logic. Below you will find a list of some of my papers.

In Press Forthcoming Handbook of Modal Logic, edited by Patrick Blackburn, Johan van Benthem and Frank Wolter. Modal logic was born almost a century ago. Originally a branch of philosophical logic, over the last thirty years it has attracted the interest of computer scientists, mathematicians, linguists, economists, and researchers in artificial intelligence, and nowadays it is one of the most widely used logical formalisms. But because of this diversity, work in
modal logic tends to be scattered, with researchers from one field unaware of related work in another. A compact reference that outlines the shape of modern modal logic, from both theoretical and applied perspectives, would be of widespread interest. At present, no such reference exists. The Handbook of Modal Logic is intended to fill this gap. Leading researchers in modal logic and its applications will contribute articles which will collectively describe modern modal logic in theory and practice, from its more elementary aspects to its most advanced.

Notre Dame Journal of Formal Logic . [Appeared in 2004]
Paraconsistent logics are, by definition, inconsistency tolerant inconsistency tolerant without thereby being contradiction tolerant . For example, even though no inconsistencies are tolerated by intuitionistic propositional logic, some inconsistencies are tolerated by intuitionistic predicate logic. In this way, intuitionistic predicate logic is, in a mild sense, paraconsistent. So too are orthologic and quantum propositional logic and other formal systems. Given this fact, a widespread view that traditional paraconsistent logics are especially repugnant because they countenance inconsistencies is undercut. Many well-understood nonclassical logics countenance inconsistencies as well. [This paper was published in 2004, despite the apparent date of 2002 in the citation. The tale is told in more detail here

A Bibliography of Non-Standard Logics Peter Suber Philosophy Department Earlham College In the kinds of non-standard logics included, this bibliography aims for completeness, although it has not yet succeeded. In the coverage of any given non-standard logic, it does not at all aim for completeness. Instead it aims to include works suitable as introductions for those who are already familiar with standard first-order logic. Looking at these non-standard logics gives us an indirect, but usefully clear and comprehensive idea of the usually hazy notion of "standardness". In standard first-order logics:
  • Wffs are finite in length (although there may be infinitely many of them).
  • Rules of inference take only finitely many premises.
  • There are only two truth-values, "truth" and "falsehood".
  • Truth-values of given proposition symbols do not change within a given interpretation, only between or across interpretations.
  • All propositional operators and connectives are truth-functional.
  • "p ~p" is provable even if we do not have p or ~p separately; that is, the principle of excluded middle holds.

paraconsistency
View that there are important paraconsistent logical theories; that is theories that do not allow (as classical logic does: see relevance logics ) that a contradiction has every proposition among its logical consequences. A system which contains contradictory proposition is inconsistent. But if it does not also contain every proposition (as it would for classical logic) it avoids being trivial. It is claimed that various scientific and mathematical theories are in fact of this nature, and so can be logically analyzed by paraconsistent logics, and also shown to be respectable as they stand (that is, we need not assume that the inconsistencies in them are merely aberrations that must be removed before they can be properly studied).

Operational meaning and global meaning in sequent calculus
For those readers who have yet to look at the work in progress I posted some time back, I'm going to revisit a minor point I discuss in the paper. The philosophy of logic seminar in Arch© spent some time this semester looking at papers on proof-theoretic semantics and harmony, one of which was a paper by Francesco Paoli , 'Quine and Slater on paraconsistency and deviance', Journal of Philosophical Logic, 32, 2003, pp. 531-548. The paper introduces an interesting semantic distinction in sequent calculus, devised to deal with a type of Quinean meaning-variance argument (see Quine 1986 2nd ed., pp. 80-83).
A bit of prefacing: The backdrop of Paoli's distinction is that sequent calculus is an appropriate proof-theoretic framework for logical inferentialism (the idea that logical constants have their meaning determined by the rules which govern their use). The traditional framework for inferentialism is arguably natural deduction, but it is increasingly popular to give something like a proof-theoretic semantics in sequent calculus in stead. No wonder, really, considering the huge importance of such calculi in proof-theory generally. In particular, it is in these systems most work on substructural logics and structural rules has been done (see the paper for more on this).
What sort of reasons could we have for disliking the move from natural deduction to sequent calculus. One common objection is that it takes us from a system close to natural reasoning to a system with several artificial features. Perhaps foremost among these so-called artificial features is that of multiple conclusion. Is there something like multiple conclusion logic in natural reasoning? That, I think, is an interesting question, and it has been given a positive answer by some authors (

Paraconsistent logics
ज्ञानकोश: - The Indological Knowledgebase A paraconsistent logic is a non-trivial logic which allows inconsistencies. More specifically, it allows both a statement and its negation to be asserted, without absurdity following. In standard logics, anything can be derived from an inconsistency; this is known as ex contradictione quodlibet (ECQ). A paraconsistent logic is then a logical system in which ECQ does not hold. Paraconsistent logic can be used in modelling belief systems which are inconsistent, and yet from which not anything can be inferred. In standard logics, care has to be taken to not allow such statements as the liar paradox to be formed; paraconsistent logics can be much simplified in that they do not have to excise such statements (though they still have to excise Curry's paradox ). Additionally, a paraconsistent logic can potentially overcome the limitation of arithmetic that Gödel's incompleteness theorem implies, and be complete.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation search A paraconsistent logic is a logical system that attempts to deal with contradictions in a discriminating way. Alternatively, paraconsistent logic is the subfield of logic that is concerned with studying and developing paraconsistent (or "inconsistency-tolerant") systems of logic. (The term will be used in both ways in this article.) Inconsistency-tolerant logics have been around since at least 1910 (and arguably much earlier, for example in the writings of Aristotle ); however, the term paraconsistent ("beyond the consistent") was not coined until 1976, by the Peruvian philosopher Francisco Mir³ Quesada

Paraconsistent Logic
First published Tue Sep 24, 1996; substantive revision Wed Nov 21, 2007 The development of paraconsistent logic was initiated in order to challenge the logical principle that anything follows from contradictory premises, ex contradictione quodlibet (ECQ) . Let be a relation of logical consequence, defined either semantically or proof-theoretically. Let us say that is explosive iff for every formula A and B A A B . Classical logic, intuitionistic logic, and most other standard logics are explosive. A logic is said to be paraconsistent iff its relation of logical consequence is not explosive. The modern history of paraconsistent logic is relatively short. Yet the subject has already been shown to be an important development in logic for many reasons. These involve the motivations for the subject, its philosophical implications and its applications. In the first half of this article, we will review some of these. In the second, we will give some idea of the basic technical constructions involved in paraconsistent logics. Further discussion can be found in the references given at the end of the article.
  • Motivation and Applications
    Motivation and Applications
    Inconsistent but Non-Trivial Theories
    A most telling reason for paraconsistent logic is the fact that there are theories which are inconsistent but non-trivial. Clearly, once we admit the existence of such theories, their underlying logics must be paraconsistent. Examples of inconsistent but non-trivial theories are easy to produce. An example can be derived from the history of science. (In fact, many examples can be given from this area.) Consider Bohr's theory of the atom. According to this, an electron orbits the nucleus of the atom without radiating energy. However, according to Maxwell's equations, which formed an integral part of the theory, an electron which is accelerating in orbit must radiate energy. Hence Bohr's account of the behaviour of the atom was inconsistent. Yet, patently, not everything concerning the behavior of electrons was inferred from it. Hence, whatever inference mechanism it was that underlay it, this must have been paraconsistent.

Abstract
Classical logic predicts that everything (thus nothing useful at all) follows from inconsistency. A paraconsistent logic is a logic where an inconsistency does not lead to such an explosion, and since in practice consistency is difficult to achieve there are many potential applications of paraconsistent logics in Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence (AI). The talk gives an overview of the forthcoming presentations at the conferences Artificial Intelligence and Symbolic Computation AISC 2004 ) and Multiagent System Technologies MATES 2004 The first paper presents a concise description of a paraconsistent higher order logic with countably infinite indeterminacy. The meaning of the logical operators is different from traditional many-valued logics as well as from logics based on bilattices. Higher order logics are expressive and with several automated theorem provers available. The second paper argues that paraconsistent logic is advantageous in order to deal with assertions made by intelligent agents. Other propositional attitudes like knowledge and beliefs can in principle be treated along the same lines. A first order variant of the paraconsistent higher order logic is translated into classical predicate logic. Papers Slides

    A Strong Model of Paraconsistent Logic
    Olivier Esser Source: Notre Dame J. Formal Logic Volume 44, Number 3 (2003), 149-156.
    Abstract
    The purpose of this paper is mainly to give a model of paraconsistent logic satisfying the "Frege comprehension scheme" in which we can develop standard set theory (and even much more as we shall see).

Relevant Logic and Paraconsistency.
Bertossi, Hunter and Schaub (eds), Inconsistency Tolerance Springer, 2004. This is an account of the approach to paraconsistency associated with relevant logic. The logic fde of first degree entailments is shown to arise naturally out of the deeper concerns of relevant logic. The relationship between relevant logic and resolution, and especially the disjunctive syllogism, is then examined. The relevant refusal to validate these inferences is defended, and finally it is suggested that more needs to be done towards a satisfactory theory of when they may nonetheless safely be used.

A, Still Adorable.
This paper expands on an earlier paper, "Abelian Logic (from A to Z)", by the same authors. The main result is that the Abelian logic A is rejection-complete; i.e., that each formula B is either a theorem of A or else leads in the style of Lukasiewicz to a proof of the variable p. Meredith's single axiom formulation is introduced for the implicational fragment of A and the finite model property proved. An interesting normal form is shown for A, using distribution laws not normally available to relevant logics.

Abstract
A A ) is inconsistent with the Law of Simplification ( A B B accepted by relevantists, but yields an inconsistent non-trivial extension of the system of entailment E . Such paraconsistent extensions of relevant logics have been studied by R. Routley, C. Mortensen and R. Brady. After examining the semantics associated to such systems, it is stressed that there are nonclassical treatments of relevance which do not support Simplification. The paper aims at showing that Aristotle's Thesis may receive a sense if the arrow is defined as strict implication endowed with the proviso that the clauses of the conditional have the same modal status, i.e. the same position in the Aristotelian square. It is so grasped, in different form, the basic idea of relevant logic that the clauses of a true conditional should have something in common. It is proved that thanks to such definition of the arrow Aristotle's Thesis subjoined to the minimal normal system

Brave New Logic
by Larry
In classical formal logic, every statement is either true or false: those which are false are precisely those which are not true. In the early 20 th century however, constructivist intuitionistic logics in which some statements are true, others false, and the rest neither true nor false. Though at first glance this may seem more mystical than mathematical, many years later, intuitionism remains the focus of a reasonable amount of serious scientific and philosophical interest. Far less well-known is its eccentric younger cousin: paraconsistent logic. In most versions of this, the middle is again excluded, so each statement must be either true or false, but now some are allowed be both true and false. In all other systems this type of contradiction would spell immediate meltdown, but paraconsistent logic is built to cope with it: it is

42. The Logical Fallacies: Logic Resources: Branches Of Logic
Most forms of logic assume consistency, that is if A is true, then Not A must be false. Paraconsistent logic denies this basic assumption.

Prev Next Search: Logic Resources: Branches of Logic
Once you are past the basic, you come to see that logic has many branches and flavours. Much of this is documented on the web. This page points you to sites devoted to some particular branch or another.
  • Alternative Logic
    This is a term I coined to capture the various New Age logics which have emerged in recent years, the paradigm of which is deBono's Lateral Thinking.
    • Logic On-Line - contains references to the G.O.S.N. and S.I.D.P.E. methodologies
  • Deontic Logic
    This field of logic deals with permissions and obligations. It is typically used in the field of moral philosophy. Trying to teach it to computers is a bear. ;)
  • Description Logic
    Description logics are languages tailored for expressing knowledge about concepts and concept hierarchies.

ESSAYS ON NON-CLASSICAL LOGIC
edited by Heinrich Wansing (Dresden University of Technology, Germany)
This book covers a broad range of up-to-date issues in non-classical logic that are of interest not only to philosophical and mathematical logicians but also to computer scientists and researchers in artificial intelligence. The problems addressed range from methodological issues in paraconsistent and deontic logic to the revision theory of truth and infinite Turing machines. The book identifies a number of important current trends in contemporary non-classical logic. Among them are dialogical and substructural logic, the classification of concepts of negation, truthmaker theory, and mathematical and foundational aspects of modal and temporal logic.
Contents:
  • Fine-Grained Theories of Time (P Blackburn)
  • Revision Sequences and Computers with an Infinite Amount of Time (B Löwe)
  • On Frege's Nightmare: A Combination of Intuitionistic, Free and Paraconsistent Logics (S Rahman)
