Intuitionistic Metric Temporal Logic
summary
Defines Intuitionistic Metric Temporal Logic (IMTL) that extends intuitionistic temporal calculi to dense time with explicit intervals and gives every proof a computational meaning so proofs carry a moment-in-time and may only act at or move forward in time via a delay rule. Main theorem is syntactic cut elimination; cut reductions correspond to temporal interactions. Demonstrates modeling of a NOT gate with propagation and contamination delays and proves temporal causality plus temporal monotonicity; not yet a full programming language.
