Abstract

We construct a faithful interpretation of Łukasiewicz's logic in product logic (both propositional and predicate). Using known facts it follows that the product predicate logic is not recursively axiomatizable.

We prove a completeness theorem for product logic extended by a unary connective δ of Baaz [1]. We show that Gödel's logic is a sublogic of this extended product logic.

We also prove NP-completeness of the set of propositional formulas satisfiable in product logic (resp. in Gödel's logic).
