By the development of new fields and applications, such as Automated Theorem Proving and Logic Programming, Logic has obtained a new and important role in Computer Science.
In the 20th century philosophy of mathematics has to a great extent been dominated by views developed during the so-called foundational crisis in the beginning of that century.
With one exception, these papers are original and fullyrefereed research articles on various applications ofCategory Theory to Algebraic Topology, Logic and ComputerScience.
In this monograph we study two generalizations of standard unification, E-unification and higher-order unification, using an abstract approach orig- inated by Herbrand and developed in the case of standard first-order unifi- cation by Martelli and Montanari.
Cyber security is the protection of information systems, hardware, software, and information as well from theft, damages, interruption or misdirection to any of these resources.
L'opera si propone come testo di riferimento per acquisire una solida preparazione specialistica nella Logica, presentando in maniera rigorosa ed innovativa argomenti tradizionalmente affrontati nei corsi universitari di secondo livello.
Tessellations: Mathematics, Art and Recreation aims to present a comprehensive introduction to tessellations (tiling) at a level accessible to non-specialists.
A symbol of the Divine, a good luck charm, a cosmogram of the world order, a template for fengshui-through the ages, the luoshu, or magic squre of order three, has fascinated people of many different cultures.
From Zero to Infinity is a combination of number lore, number history, and sparkling descriptions of the simply stated but exceedingly difficult problems posed by the most ordinary numbers that first appeared in 1955 and has been kept in print continuously ever since.
This book provides a practical argumentation model for intelligent means end-reasoning, a distinctive type of reasoning used for problem-solving and decision-making.
Building on the success of the first edition, An Introduction to Number Theory with Cryptography, Second Edition, increases coverage of the popular and important topic of cryptography, integrating it with traditional topics in number theory.
Edited in collaboration with FoLLI, this book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th Indian Conference on Logic and Its Applications, ICLA 2023, which was held in Indore, India, in March 2023.
This first volume develops factorization algebras with a focus upon examples exhibiting their use in field theory, which will be useful for researchers and graduates.
Exploring the intersection of ethics and statistics, this comprehensive guide illustrates the proper use of probabilistic and statistical reasoning in the behavioral, social, and biomedical sciences.
In 1963, the first author introduced a course in set theory at the University of Illinois whose main objectives were to cover Godel's work on the con- sistency of the Axiom of Choice (AC) and the Generalized Continuum Hypothesis (GCH), and Cohen's work on the independence of the AC and the GCH.
An inviting collection of fun, hands-on applications in mathematics and computingThis book provides a fun, hands-on approach to learning how mathematics and computing relate to the world around us and help us to better understand it.
The Mathematical Foundations of the Finite Element Method with Applications to Partial Differential Equations is a collection of papers presented at the 1972 Symposium by the same title, held at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County Campus.
