In predicate logic, existential instantiation (also called existential elimination)〔Hurley, Patrick. A Concise Introduction to Logic. Wadsworth Pub Co, 2008.〕〔Copi and Cohen〕〔Moore and Parker〕 is a valid rule of inference which says that, given a formula of the form , one may infer for a new constant or variable symbol ''c''. The rule has the restriction that the constant or variable ''c'' introduced by the rule must be a new term that has not occurred earlier in the proof. In one formal notation, the rule may be denoted : where ''a'' is an arbitrary term that has not been a part of our proof thus far. == See also == * existential fallacy 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「Existential instantiation」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
