Abstract

In this chapter, the syntax of formulae in the Logic of Partial Terms (LPT) is extended to include the atomic formula x = α and the second-order universal quantifier ∀2, interpreted as a combination of ∀’ and ∀. Axioms and rules for these new constructs are added to LPT, giving Second-Order Logic of Partial Terms (2LPT). In this chapter I shall extend the interpretation of LPT in CPF given in Chapter 29 to an interpretation of 2LPT in 2CPF.
