Alfred North Whitehead

Alfred North Whitehead (15 February 1861 – 30 December 1947) was an English mathematician and philosopher.

Bertrand Russell

Glossary of mathematical symbols

A mathematical symbol is a figure or a combination of figures that is used to represent a mathematical object, an action on mathematical objects, a relation between mathematical objects, or for structuring the other symbols that occur in a formula.

List of logic symbols

In logic, a set of symbols is commonly used to express logical representation. Horseshoe (symbol) and List of logic symbols are logic symbols.

See Horseshoe (symbol) and List of logic symbols

Material conditional

The material conditional (also known as material implication) is an operation commonly used in logic.

See Horseshoe (symbol) and Material conditional

Omega

Omega (-->uppercase Ω, lowercase ω; Ancient Greek ὦ, later ὦ μέγα, Modern Greek ωμέγα) is the twenty-fourth and last letter in the Greek alphabet.

Principia Mathematica

The Principia Mathematica (often abbreviated PM) is a three-volume work on the foundations of mathematics written by mathematician–philosophers Alfred North Whitehead and Bertrand Russell and published in 1910, 1912, and 1913.

See Horseshoe (symbol) and Principia Mathematica

Propositional calculus

The propositional calculus is a branch of logic.

See Horseshoe (symbol) and Propositional calculus

Set theory

Set theory is the branch of mathematical logic that studies sets, which can be informally described as collections of objects.

See Horseshoe (symbol) and Set theory

Subset

In mathematics, a set A is a subset of a set B if all elements of A are also elements of B; B is then a superset of A. It is possible for A and B to be equal; if they are unequal, then A is a proper subset of B. The relationship of one set being a subset of another is called inclusion (or sometimes containment).

Symbol

A symbol is a mark, sign, or word that indicates, signifies, or is understood as representing an idea, object, or relationship.

See Horseshoe (symbol) and Symbol

TeX

TeX (see below), stylized within the system as, is a typesetting program which was designed and written by computer scientist and Stanford University professor Donald Knuth and first released in 1978.

Unicode

Unicode, formally The Unicode Standard, is a text encoding standard maintained by the Unicode Consortium designed to support the use of text in all of the world's writing systems that can be digitized.
