Formal Axioms

First-Order Logic Axioms

componentPartOfAtAllTimes(x,y) β†’ (MaterialEntity(x) ∧ Β¬(FiatObjectPart(x))) ∧ (MaterialEntity(y) ∧ Β¬(FiatObjectPart(y))) ∧ properContinuantPartOfAtAllTimes(x,y)

Semi-Formal Natural Language Axioms

x component part of at all times y holds when x is a β€˜material entity’ that is not a β€˜fiat object part’ and y is a β€˜material entity’ that is not a β€˜fiat object part’ and x is β€˜proper continuant part of at all times’ y
