First-order logic - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-order_logicFirst-order logic—also known as predicate logic, quantificational logic, and first-order predicate calculus—is a collection of formal systems used in mathematics, philosophy, linguistics, and computer science. First-order logic uses quantified variablesover non-logical objects, and allows the use of sentences that contain variables, so that rather than propositions such as "Socrates is a man", one can have expressions in the form "there exists x such that x is Socrates and x is a man", where "th…
First order logic tool—Mamo.dev
https://mamo.dev/first-order-logic-toolA first order formula can be defined inductively as follows: p(t1, …, tn) is a formula if t1, …, tn are terms and p is a predicate of arity n. A formula of this kind is called atomic; (F ∧ G), (F ∨ G) , (F → G), (F ← G) , (F ↔ G) are formulas if both F and G are formulas; (∀x F), (∃x F) are formulas if x is a variable and F is ...

pages.cs.wisc.edu › ~dyer › cs540Oct 14, 1998 · For example, convert (Ex)P(x) to P(c) where c is a brand new constant symbol that is not used in any other sentence. c is called a Skolem constant . More generally, if the existential quantifier is within the scope of a universal quantified variable, then introduce a Skolem function that depend on the universally quantified variable.
Compilers - First-order logic
crypto.stanford.edu › ~blynn › compilerThis important result suggests a strategy to prove any first-order formula f . As a preprocessing step, we prepend explicit universal quantifiers for each free variable: generalize fo = foldr (Qua Forall) fo $ fv fo. Then: Negate f because validity and satisfiability are dual: the formula f is valid if and only if ¬ f is unsatisfiable ...
