Disjunction introduction or addition (also called or introduction)〔Hurley〕〔Moore and Parker〕〔Copi and Cohen〕 is a simple valid argument form, an immediate inference and a rule of inference of propositional logic. The rule makes it possible to introduce disjunctions to logical proofs. It is the inference that if ''P'' is true, then ''P or Q'' must be true. :Socrates is a man. :Therefore, either Socrates is a man or pigs are flying in formation over the English Channel. The rule can be expressed as: : where the rule is that whenever instances of "" appear on lines of a proof, "" can be placed on a subsequent line. Disjunction introduction is controversial in paraconsistent logic because in combination with other rules of logic, it leads to explosion (i.e. everything becomes provable). See Tradeoffs in Paraconsistent logic. == Formal notation == The ''disjunction introduction'' rule may be written in sequent notation: : where is a metalogical symbol meaning that is a syntactic consequence of in some logical system; and expressed as a truth-functional tautology or theorem of propositional logic: : where and are propositions expressed in some formal system. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Disjunction introduction」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
