Course Materials

Coursework

Exam

The course Mathematical Logic is completed by passing a written exam lasting 120 minutes.

You are admitted to the exam if you obtain both 50% of all homework points and 50% of all eTest points.

Content

  • Propositional logic (foundations, algorithmical questions, compactness, resolution, sequent calculus)
  • Structures, syntax and semantic of first-order logic
  • Introduction into other logics (modal and temporal logics, higher order logics)
  • Evaluation games, model comparison games
  • Proof calculi, term structures, completeness theorem
  • Compactness theorem and applications
  • Decidability, undecidability and complexity of logical specifications
