2 Course Objectives At the conclusion of this course, you should be able to 1. Represent logical statements in propositional and predicate calculus, and use truth tables and formal proofs to determine their truth values. 2. Create a truth table for a logical expression. Derive a logical expression from a given truth table. Design a circuit to perform a simple task. 3. Construct a circuit from a logical expression using AND, OR, and NOT gates. Simplify logical expressions. Derive a logical expression from a given circuit. 4. Describe set notations using predicate calculus. Determine the power of a set. Use predicate calculus to prove set theoretic propositions. 5. Describe and use the first, second, and general principles of proof by induction. Derive closed form representations for recursively defined sequences; prove their correctness by induction. Derive recursive sequences from closed form functions and prove their equivalence by induction. 6. Describe asymptotic growth of functions, compare functions using big-oh notation. Compare asymptotic growth and prove inequalities by induction. Determine and solve recurrences arising from algorithms. Determine big-oh running times for algorithms. 7. Define binary relations and their properties using predicate calculus. Represent binary relations as ordered pairs, matrices, predicates, or graphs. Combine binary relations by union, intersection, and composition using matrix operations. Find the reflexive, symmetric, and transitive closures of a binary relation. 8. Describe and calculate permutations and combinations with and without replacement and with and without distinguishable objects. Describe and apply the pigeonhole principle. 9. Describe and determine the existence of Euler circuits and paths and Hamilton circuits and paths in graphs. Determine the minimum spanning tree of a graph. Construct and analyze Hasse diagrams for partially ordered sets. 2

5 Propositional Calculus A. Proposition - a sentence or statement which is either true or false but NOT BOTH. It cannot be unspecified (ambiguous) or vacuous. 1. n 2 > n for all integers n>1 2. n 2 = n (ambiguous) 3. How are you? (vacuous) B. Compound propositions 1. lower case letters stand for propositions -- q, p, r, etc. 2. connectives between propositions not or negative and or (inclusive) implies if and only if or (exclusive) Examples: Converse: p q (p q) (s t ) At this time we will consider only a finite number of connectives. p q q p is converse Contrapositive: p q q p is contrapositive Truth Tables: 1. Simple propositions are input (independent) variables that are either true or false. 2. Compound proposition (output) is either true or false = true; 0 = false 4. Must consider all combinations of input variables. 5
6 Example 1.1: p q; that is p q q p (Equivalence rule) p q p q q p If p q is true (=1) then p = q Tautology A proposition that is always true independent of input values (e.g. p p). Contradiction A proposition that is always false independent of input values (e.g. p p). Tautology Contradiction p p p p p p
7 Truth Tables for Connectives p q: p q: p q p q p q p q p: p q: p p p q p q p q: p q: p q p q p q p q
8 Example 1.2: (p r) ( p r) (implication rule) p r (p r) ( p r) p Logical equivalences Example 1.3: (p q) (q r) (p r) (Hypothetical Syllogism) p q r (p q) (q r) (p r) ok not true Note that this rule works only from LEFT to RIGHT and not vice-versa. It is called a Logical implication, whose symbol is. P logically implies Q is writtenp Q. 8
9 Example 1.4: (p q) s p s (Implication) p q s (p q) s p s Formal Proof for (p q) s p s: Statement Reason 1. (p q) s Hypothesis 2. p p q Addition 3. p s 1,2; Hypothetical Syllogism Class Lemma: if (p q) s then p s and q s 9
10 Example 1.5: [(s g) p] (p a) a g s g p a (s g) p (p a) a g g a Formal Proof: Statements Reasons 1. (s g) p Hypothesis 2. p a Hypothesis 3. g p 1; Class Lemma 4. g a 2, 3; Hypothetical Syllogism 5. a g 4; Contrapositive 10
11 Example 1.6: Formal Proof Given: p q Prove: s r q s p r Direct Proof: Statements Reasons 1. p q Assumption 2. q s Assumption 3. p r Assumption 4. (p q) (r s) 2, 3; 26a Constructive Dilemma 5. r s 1, 4; Modus Ponens 6. s r 5; Commutative In a direct proof one needs to show that given p then q, i.e. p q. For an indirect proof one can use any logically equivalent method. A common type of indirect proof is proof by contradiction. One assumes the negation of the conclusion along with the assumptions and shows a contradiction. i.e. (p q) 0 p q p q c (p q) 0 p q p q logically equivalent 11
12 Example 1.7: Proof by Contradiction: Statements Reasons 1. p q Assumption 2. q s Assumption 3. p r Assumption 4. (s r) Negation of Conclusion 5. s r 4; DeMorgan 6. s 5; Simplification 7. q 2, 6; Modus Tollens 8. r s 5; Commutative 9. r 8; Simplification 10. p 3, 9; Modus Tollens 11. p q 7, 10; Conjunction 12. (p q) 11; DeMorgan 13. (p q) (p q) 1, 12; Conjunction 14. Contradiction 13; Rule 7b Two Substitution Rules 1. If a compound proposition P is a tautology and if all occurrences of some variable of P, say a, are replaced by the same proposition E, then the resulting compound proposition P * is also a tautology. [Does not necessarily give same proposition.] a q a q is a tautology. If for all occurrences of p we substitute (s r). (s r) q (s r) q is also a tautology. 2. If compound proposition P contains a proposition Q and if Q is replaced by a logically equivalent proposition Q *, then the resulting compound proposition P * is logically equivalent to P. p q q p is a proposition. p q p q i.e., p q is logically equivalent to p q. Therefore, p q q p is logically equivalent to p q q p. 12
