Truth-Trees and Model Universes
Truth-trees are tests for consistency. If there is a finished
open path, then all the wffs on the path can be true, and the path represents an
interpretation under which all the wffs on that path are true. Our QL
truth-trees provide the size of the domain needed for a interpretation where the
wffs on the path are true. The domain size is simply the number of distinct
individual constants used on the path.
For each of the trees that have at least one finished open
path in the Truth-tree exercise
for QL, provide the model universe and the interpetation that demonstrates
that the wffs are consistent.
