Description

This textbook offers a detailed introduction to the methodology and applications of sequent calculi in propositional logic. Unlike other texts concerned with proof theory, emphasis is placed on illustrating how to use sequent calculi to prove a wide range of metatheoretical results.  The presentation is elementary and self-contained, with all technical details both formally stated and also informally explained.  Numerous proofs are worked through to demonstrate methods of proving important results, such as the cut-elimination theorem, completeness, decidability, and interpolation.  Other proofs are presented with portions left as exercises for readers, allowing them to practice techniques of sequent calculus. After a brief introduction to classical propositional logic, the text explores three variants of sequent calculus and their features and applications.  The remaining chapters then show how sequent calculi can be extended, modified, andapplied to non-classical logics, including modal, intuitionistic, substructural, and many-valued logics. Sequents and Trees is suitable for graduate and advanced undergraduate students in logic taking courses on proof theory and its application to non-classical logics.  It will also be of interest to researchers in computer science and philosophers.
