Tautological implication
In logic, a formula is satisfiable if it is true under at least one interpretation, and thus a tautology is a formula whose negation is unsatisfiable. In other words, it cannot be false. It cannot be untrue.

Tautological implication
Unsatisfiable statements, both through negation and affirmation, are known formally as contradictions. A formula that is neither a tautology nor a contradiction is said to be logically contingent.

Tautological implication
Such a formula can be made either true or false based on the values assigned to its propositional variables. The double turnstile notation ⊨ S {\displaystyle \vDash S} is used to indicate that S is a tautology. Tautology is sometimes symbolized by "Vpq", and contradiction by "Opq".

Tautological implication
The tee symbol ⊤ {\displaystyle \top } is sometimes used to denote an arbitrary tautology, with the dual symbol ⊥ {\displaystyle \bot } (falsum) representing an arbitrary contradiction; in any symbolism, a tautology may be substituted for the truth value "true", as symbolized, for instance, by "1".Tautologies are a key...

Tautological implication
Indeed, in propositional logic, there is no distinction between a tautology and a logically valid formula. In the context of predicate logic, many authors define a tautology to be a sentence that can be obtained by taking a tautology of propositional logic, and uniformly replacing each propositional variable by a first...

Finite terms
In mathematical logic, a term denotes a mathematical object while a formula denotes a mathematical fact. In particular, terms appear as components of a formula. This is analogous to natural language, where a noun phrase refers to an object and a whole sentence refers to a fact. A first-order term is recursively constru...

Theory (mathematical logic)
In mathematical logic, a theory (also called a formal theory) is a set of sentences in a formal language.

Extension by new constant and function names
In mathematical logic, a theory can be extended with new constants or function names under certain conditions with assurance that the extension will introduce no contradiction. Extension by definitions is perhaps the best-known approach, but it requires unique existence of an object with the desired property. Addition ...

Existential theory of the reals
However, there are other number systems that are not accurately described by these axioms; in particular, the theory defined in the same way for integers instead of real numbers is undecidable, even for existential sentences (Diophantine equations) by Matiyasevich's theorem.The existential theory of the reals is the fr...

Categorical (model theory)
In model theory, the notion of a categorical theory is refined with respect to cardinality.

Universal quantifier
In mathematical logic, a universal quantification is a type of quantifier, a logical constant which is interpreted as "given any", "for all", or "for any".
