Su Rogerson (Monash) will present "Adorable A and the Lovelight L - Together Again" at 1 in Old Arts 224 on 18 October.
\nAbstract: Abelian logic (Left Abelian Group Logic\, LAGL) was independently introduced by Meyer and Slaney [1] and Casari [3] in 1989. Further results were published by Meyer and Slaney in [2]. This paper takes the axiomization of LAGL\; given by Meyer and Slaney and compares it with Right Abelian Group Logic\, RAGL (refered to as the Lovelight L in [5]). The axiomizations are different [4] and when the rule of modus ponens is added to each logic in turn\, different properties are observed. This paper expands on these results giving reasons as to why adding modus ponens rather than reverse modus ponens to RAGL makes RAGL\, in a sense\, deductively weaker than LAGL with modus ponens.
