Synopsis

In this groundbreaking textbook, Lucien Sina presents a fresh approach to the study of logic, bridging classical foundations with cutting-edge information-theoretic perspectives. "Logic: Foundations, the P-vs-NP-Problem and Information-Theoretic Perspectives" offers students and researchers a comprehensive journey through the fundamental principles of logic while introducing innovative concepts at the intersection of logic, information theory, and computational complexity. Key features: Solid grounding in classical logic, covering propositional and predicate logic, validity, and formal reasoning Novel integration of Shannon information theory with traditional logical concepts Exploration of new approaches to axiomatization and formalization in light of Gödel's incompleteness results In-depth analysis of the P vs NP Problem, featuring information-theoretic and optimization approaches Clear explanations and examples suitable for first-year students and beyond Applications in mathematics, computer science, and related fields This unique text not only provides a thorough introduction to logic but also opens new avenues for understanding the limits and capabilities of formal systems. By combining traditional logical rigor with information-theoretic insights and exploring one of the most significant unsolved problems in computer science, Sina offers readers a powerful toolkit for critical thinking, advanced logical analysis, and computational problem-solving. Whether you're a student embarking on your journey in formal reasoning, a researcher seeking fresh perspectives on logical foundations, or a computer scientist interested in complexity theory, this book promises to challenge and expand your understanding of this fundamental discipline.
