Verity, in degree-theoretic semantics, quantifies the truth of a statement. It assigns a numerical value between 0 and 1, representing…
Vagueness describes terms lacking clear boundaries, leading to indeterminate cases. It's distinct from ambiguity, focusing on the fuzzy edges of…
A predicate is tolerant if minor changes in an object's properties don't alter its applicability. The 'bald' predicate exemplifies tolerance;…
A sorites series presents a sequence of propositions used to illustrate the sorites paradox. It challenges our understanding of vague…
Explore logics beyond classical assumptions. This includes intuitionistic, many-valued, and modal systems, offering diverse frameworks for reasoning and computation.
Multivalent logic, also known as many-valued logic, extends classical binary logic by incorporating more than two truth values. This allows…
Explore systems beyond binary true/false. Many-valued logic incorporates additional truth values to represent uncertainty, indeterminacy, and nuanced degrees of truth…
Kleene connectives extend classical logic with a third truth value (undefined/unknown). They are crucial for handling indeterminate propositions and are…
Higher-order vagueness concerns the application of vagueness itself, especially with predicates that are borderline cases of borderline cases. It explores…
Fuzzy logic is a many-valued logic that deals with degrees of truth and certainty, moving beyond traditional true/false. It enables…
