信念修正视域下的悖论研究

Paradox Research Based on Belief Revision

Hoster: Yongfeng YUAN, Associate Professor

Paradox research is an ancient research field, and belief revision is a new logic theory developed in the latest three decades. However, paradox formation, discovery, and resolution are some kinds of canonical and complex belief revision processes. Although there are many extraordinary interrelations between the two fields, there are not yet enough interdisciplinary researches have been done between the two fields systematically. This project is trying to propose one new research sight for paradox-related problems from the points of view in belief revision, then propose one new methodology for paradox resolution based on belief revision theory, and at last trying to resolve some logical paradoxes with the new methodology. This project is supported by the National Social Science Foundation of China (No.16CZX051).
