''Formation rules'' (also called ''formal grammar'') are a precise description of the [[well-formed formula]]s of a formal language. They are synonymous with the [[set (mathematics)|set]] of [[String (computer science)|strings]] over the [[alphabet]] of the formal language that constitute well formed formulas. However, it does not describe their [[semantics]] (i.e. what they mean).

A ''formal system'' (also called a ''logical calculus'', or a ''logical system'') consists of a formal language together with a [[Deductive system|deductive apparatus]] (also called a ''deductive system''). The deductive apparatus may consist of a set of [[Rule of inference|transformation rule]]s (also called ''inference rules'') or a set of [[axiom]]s, or have both. A formal system is used to [[Proof theory|derive]] one expression from one or more other expressions.

A ''formal system'' can be formally defined as an ordered triple <α,<math>\mathcal{I}</math>,<math>\mathcal{D}</math>d>, where <math>\mathcal{D}</math>d is the relation of direct derivability. This relation is understood in a comprehensive [[Sense and reference|sense]] such that the primitive sentences of the formal system are taken as directly [[formal proof|derivable]] from the [[empty set]] of sentences. Direct derivability is a relation between a sentence and a finite, possibly empty set of sentences. Axioms are so chosen that every first place member of <math>\mathcal{D}</math>d is a member of <math>\mathcal{I}</math> and every second place member is a finite subset of <math>\mathcal{I}</math>.

=== Formal proofs ===
</ul>
{{Main|Formal proof}}
 
A ''formal proof'' is a sequence of well-formed formulas of a formal language, the last of which is a [[theorem]] of a formal system. The theorem is a [[Logical consequence|syntactic consequence]] of all the well formed formulae that in the proof precede it. For a well formed formula to qualify as part of a proof, it must result from applying a rule of the deductive apparatus of some formal system to the previous well formed formulae in the proof sequence.
 
=== Interpretations ===

An ''interpretation'' of a formal system is the assignment of meanings to the symbols and [[Truth value|truth-value]]s to the sentences of the formal system. The study of interpretations is called [[Formal semantics (logic)|Formal semantics]]. ''Giving an interpretation'' is synonymous with ''constructing a [[Structure (mathematical logic)|model]].

{{Main|Metalanguage|Object language}}
 
In metalogic, formal languages are sometimes called ''object languages''. The language used to make statements about an object language is called a ''metalanguage''. This distinction is a key difference between logic and metalogic. While logic deals with ''proofs in a formal system'', expressed in some formal language, metalogic deals with ''proofs about a formal system'' which are expressed in a metalanguage about some object language.
 
=== Syntax–semantics ===
{{Main|Syntax (logic)|Formal semantics (logic)}}
 
In metalogic, 'syntax' has to do with formal languages or formal systems without regard to any interpretation of them, whereas, 'semantics' has to do with interpretations of formal languages. The term 'syntactic' has a slightly wider scope than 'proof-theoretic', since it may be applied to properties of formal languages without any deductive systems, as well as to formal systems. 'Semantic' is synonymous with 'model-theoretic'.
 
=== Use–mention ===
{{Main|Use–mention distinction}}
 
In metalogic, the words 'use' and 'mention', in both their noun and verb forms, take on a technical sense in order to identify an important distinction.<ref name="metalogic"/> The ''use–mention distinction'' (sometimes referred to as the ''words-as-words distinction'') is the distinction between ''using'' a word (or phrase) and ''mentioning'' it. Usually it is indicated that an expression is being mentioned rather than used by enclosing it in quotation marks, printing it in italics, or setting the expression by itself on a line. The enclosing in quotes of an expression gives us the [[name]] of an expression, for example:
 
:'Metalogic' is the name of this article.
:This article is about metalogic.
 
=== Type–token ===
{{Main|Type–token distinction}}
 
The ''type-token distinction'' is a distinction in metalogic, that separates an abstract concept from the objects which are particular instances of the concept. For example, the particular bicycle in your garage is a token of the [[Type–token distinction|type]] of thing known as "The bicycle." Whereas, the bicycle in your garage is in a particular place at a particular time, that is not true of "the bicycle" as used in the sentence: "''The bicycle'' has become more popular recently." This distinction is used to clarify the meaning of [[symbol (formal)|symbols]] of [[formal language]]s.
 
== History ==
Metalogical questions have been asked since the time of [[Aristotle]]. However, it was only with the rise of formal languages in the late 19th and early 20th century that investigations into the foundations of logic began to flourish. In 1904, [[David Hilbert]] observed that in investigating the [[foundations of mathematics]] that logical notions are presupposed, and therefore a simultaneous account of metalogical and [[metamathematics|metamathematical]] principles was required. Today, metalogic and metamathematics are largely synonymous with each other, and both have been substantially subsumed by [[mathematical logic]] in academia.

Metalogic is the study of the metatheory of logic. Wheras logic studies how logical systems can be used to construct valid and sound arguments, metalogic studies the properties of logical systems.[1] Logic concerns the truths that may be derived using a logical system; metalogic concerns the truths that may be derived about the languages and systems that are used to express truths.[2]

The basic objects of metalogical study are formal languages, formal systems, and their interpretations. The study of interpretation of formal systems is the branch of mathematical logic that is known as model theory, and the study of deductive systems is the branch that is known as proof theory.

Overview

Formal language

Mining Engineer (Excluding Oil ) Truman from Alma, loves to spend time knotting, largest property developers in singapore developers in singapore and stamp collecting. Recently had a family visit to Urnes Stave Church.

A formal language is an organized set of symbols, the symbols of which precisely define it by shape and place. Such a language therefore can be defined without reference to the meanings of its expressions; it can exist before any interpretation is assigned to it—that is, before it has any meaning. First order logic is expressed in some formal language. A formal grammar determines which symbols and sets of symbols are formulas in a formal language.

A formal language can be formally defined as a set A of strings (finite sequences) on a fixed alphabet α. Some authors, including Carnap, define the language as the ordered pair <α, A>.[3] Carnap also requires that each element of α must occur in at least one string in A.

Formation rules

Formation rules (also called formal grammar) are a precise description of the well-formed formulas of a formal language. They are synonymous with the set of strings over the alphabet of the formal language that constitute well formed formulas. However, it does not describe their semantics (i.e. what they mean).

Formal systems

Mining Engineer (Excluding Oil ) Truman from Alma, loves to spend time knotting, largest property developers in singapore developers in singapore and stamp collecting. Recently had a family visit to Urnes Stave Church.

A formal system (also called a logical calculus, or a logical system) consists of a formal language together with a deductive apparatus (also called a deductive system). The deductive apparatus may consist of a set of transformation rules (also called inference rules) or a set of axioms, or have both. A formal system is used to derive one expression from one or more other expressions.

A formal system can be formally defined as an ordered triple <α,,𝒟d>, where 𝒟d is the relation of direct derivability. This relation is understood in a comprehensive sense such that the primitive sentences of the formal system are taken as directly derivable from the empty set of sentences. Direct derivability is a relation between a sentence and a finite, possibly empty set of sentences. Axioms are so chosen that every first place member of 𝒟d is a member of and every second place member is a finite subset of .

A formal system can also be defined with only the relation 𝒟d. Thereby can be omitted and α in the definitions of interpreted formal language, and interpreted formal system. However, this method can be more difficult to understand and use.[3]

Formal proofs

Mining Engineer (Excluding Oil ) Truman from Alma, loves to spend time knotting, largest property developers in singapore developers in singapore and stamp collecting. Recently had a family visit to Urnes Stave Church.

A formal proof is a sequence of well-formed formulas of a formal language, the last of which is a theorem of a formal system. The theorem is a syntactic consequence of all the well formed formulae that in the proof precede it. For a well formed formula to qualify as part of a proof, it must result from applying a rule of the deductive apparatus of some formal system to the previous well formed formulae in the proof sequence.

Interpretations

Mining Engineer (Excluding Oil ) Truman from Alma, loves to spend time knotting, largest property developers in singapore developers in singapore and stamp collecting. Recently had a family visit to Urnes Stave Church.

An interpretation of a formal system is the assignment of meanings to the symbols and truth-values to the sentences of the formal system. The study of interpretations is called Formal semantics. Giving an interpretation is synonymous with constructing a model.

Important distinctions in metalogic

Metalanguage–Object language

Mining Engineer (Excluding Oil ) Truman from Alma, loves to spend time knotting, largest property developers in singapore developers in singapore and stamp collecting. Recently had a family visit to Urnes Stave Church.

In metalogic, formal languages are sometimes called object languages. The language used to make statements about an object language is called a metalanguage. This distinction is a key difference between logic and metalogic. While logic deals with proofs in a formal system, expressed in some formal language, metalogic deals with proofs about a formal system which are expressed in a metalanguage about some object language.

In metalogic, 'syntax' has to do with formal languages or formal systems without regard to any interpretation of them, whereas, 'semantics' has to do with interpretations of formal languages. The term 'syntactic' has a slightly wider scope than 'proof-theoretic', since it may be applied to properties of formal languages without any deductive systems, as well as to formal systems. 'Semantic' is synonymous with 'model-theoretic'.

Use–mention

In metalogic, the words 'use' and 'mention', in both their noun and verb forms, take on a technical sense in order to identify an important distinction.[2] The use–mention distinction (sometimes referred to as the words-as-words distinction) is the distinction between using a word (or phrase) and mentioning it. Usually it is indicated that an expression is being mentioned rather than used by enclosing it in quotation marks, printing it in italics, or setting the expression by itself on a line. The enclosing in quotes of an expression gives us the name of an expression, for example:

'Metalogic' is the name of this article.
This article is about metalogic.

Type–token

The type-token distinction is a distinction in metalogic, that separates an abstract concept from the objects which are particular instances of the concept. For example, the particular bicycle in your garage is a token of the type of thing known as "The bicycle." Whereas, the bicycle in your garage is in a particular place at a particular time, that is not true of "the bicycle" as used in the sentence: "The bicycle has become more popular recently." This distinction is used to clarify the meaning of symbols of formal languages.

History

Metalogical questions have been asked since the time of Aristotle. However, it was only with the rise of formal languages in the late 19th and early 20th century that investigations into the foundations of logic began to flourish. In 1904, David Hilbert observed that in investigating the foundations of mathematics that logical notions are presupposed, and therefore a simultaneous account of metalogical and metamathematical principles was required. Today, metalogic and metamathematics are largely synonymous with each other, and both have been substantially subsumed by mathematical logic in academia.

Results in metalogic

Results in metalogic consist of such things as formal proofs demonstrating the consistency, completeness, and decidability of particular formal systems.

Major results in metalogic include:
