Modal Logic For Computability

Kleene's original realizability interpretation has received much attention among those who study connections between computability and logic. It was extended to full higher-order intuitionistic logic by Martin Hyland in 1982 who constructed the effective topos. In 2002, Steven Awodey, Lars Birkedal, and Dana Scott formulated a modal logic for computability which extended the usual realizability interpretation with two modal operators expressing the notion of being "computably true".

Famous quotes containing the word logic:

    ...some sort of false logic has crept into our schools, for the people whom I have seen doing housework or cooking know nothing of botany or chemistry, and the people who know botany and chemistry do not cook or sweep. The conclusion seems to be, if one knows chemistry she must not cook or do housework.
    Ellen Henrietta Swallow Richards (1842–1911)
