Operators Defined By Propositional Quantification And Their Interpretation Over Cantor Space
Abstract
In this paper second order intuitionistic propositional logic and its interpretation over Cantor space are considered. We focus on the propositional operators of the form $A^{*}=\exists q )$ where $A$ is a monadic propositional formula in the standard language $\{\neg, \vee, \wedge, \rightarrow \}$. It is shown that, over Cantor space, all operators $A^{*}$ are equivalent to appropriate formulae in $\{\neg, \vee, \wedge, \rightarrow \}$ with the only variable $p$. The coincidence, while restricting to the operators $A^{*}$, of topological interpretation over Cantor space and Pitts' interpretation of propositional quantifiers is obtained as a corollary.
