Abstract

After describing the two formulations of the principle of non contradiction in modern logic \(T \vdash \lnot (p \wedge \lnot p)\) (NC) and \(T, p, \lnot p \vdash q\) (EC) and explaining that three-valued matrices can be used to easily prove their independence, we investigate the possibilities to construct strong paraconsistent negations, i.e., for which neither (NC) nor (EC) holds, using three-valued logical matrices.

Notes

  1. 1.

    For a general discussion about how a paraconisstent negation can be defined, see [7, 8].

  2. 2.

    This means that reflexivity, monotonicity, transitivity hold as well as substitution, see [17].

  3. 3.

    We are working in abstract logic, not in proof theory, so we are not considering that these are rules.

  4. 4.

    Same remark as in the previous footnote.

  5. 5.

    Since we are working with truth-tables which are conservative extensions of the classical ones, we omit the classical parts in all tables built to check De Morgan laws hereafter.

Beziau during the visit of Anne Franceschetto who was visiting Brazil to know more about paraconsistent logic. Other students, in particular Rodrigo de Almeida and Edson Vinicius Bezerra, had an active participation to this seminar
