Lecture 15: Sequent Calculus

In this lecture we discuss another formal system for first order logic: The sequent calculus which is due to Gentzen 1934. After encoding natural deduction derivations and sequent derivations in LF we prove that the former can be embedded into the latter.

Suggested Reading Materials:
