First-Order da Costa Logic

摘要

Priest (2009) formulates a propositional logic which, by employing the worldsemantics for intuitionist logic, has the same positive part but dualises the negation, to produce a paraconsistent logic which it calls 'Da Costa Logic'. This paper extends matters to the first-order case. The paper establishes various connections between first order da Costa logic, da Costa's own C_ω, and classical logic. Tableau and natural deductions systems are provided and proved sound and complete.
