VIDEOSERIE: Negation and more 🥸📽️
João Marcos: Negation, opposition and contradiction
📍Link: youtube.com/watch?v=MlyG8HT3…
This video guides us through the relation between negation and contradiction, exploring its significance for logic, reasoning, and the philosophy of logic.
My SEP entry on "Many-Valued Logic", co-authored with Adam Přenosil and Paul Egré, has been updated:

My best thanks to the colleagues, some of them from this community, who have helped improving it!
It is always a great experience to contribute to @MxLogica!
This is my take on "Negation, opposition and contradiction":

I hope some of you find it enjoyable.

How much confusion in logic comes from treating presentation-dependent properties of connectives, without further analysis, as if they were intrinsic to the connectives themselves?

Eu apostaria que ela ainda não está "pronta" pra isso.

Com isso, os Departamentos de Matemática da UFES e a UFF já estão dando um show no da UFSC.

Um atual orientando meu que é aluno do Departamento de Matemática da UFSC foi *proibido* pelo Colegiado da Matemática de escrever seu TCC em inglês. Mais ainda, depois do pedido dele o Colegiado decidiu mudar o regimento para cristalizar a proibição.

I wonder whether this (hermetic?) presentational style is experiencing a resurgence with the rise of proof assistants, whose formal theories rarely prioritize the communication of mathematical intuition. In this context, is communication itself confined to peripheral commentary?

The desiccated "Theorem, Lemma, Proof, Corollary,..." presentational style is staggeringly counterproductive, if one's objective is actually communicating the underlying mathematical intuitions and thought processes behind a result. In reality, the process is more like... (1/4)

This is an axiom of publishing in mathematical journals. If you put in too many details, your paper will be rejected. As if a few poorly lit sign posts should be enough to reconstruct the arguments. Every sentence becomes a problem set.

¡Que maravilla!
¡Secundo las felicitaciones, María!
