Neutrices and External Numbers: A Flexible Number System introduces a new model of orders of magnitude and of error analysis, with particular emphasis on behaviour under algebraic operations. The model is formulated in terms of scalar neutrices and external numbers, in the form …
Since their inception, the Perspectives in Logic and Lecture Notes in Logic series have published seminal works by leading logicians. Many of the original books in the series have been unavailable for years, but they are now in print once again. This volume, the twenty-fifth pub…
Nonstandard analysis is one of the great achievements of modern applied mathematical logic. This volume grew from a conference on Nonstandard Methods and Applications in Mathematics held in Pisa, Italy in June, 2002. It contains ten peer-reviewed papers by leading logicians.
