Formal polynomials, heuristics and proofs in logic
У. Карниэлли · Logical Investigations · 2010
This note surveys some previous results on the role of formal polynomials as a representation method for logical derivation in classical and non-classical logics, emphasizing many-valued logics, paraconsistent logics and modal logics. It also discusses the potentialities of formal polynomials as heuristic devices in logic and for expressing certain meta-logical properties, as well as pointing to some promising generalizations towards algebraic geometry.
