Avariant of
ukasiewicz logic defined in a remark in White's 1979 paper on the consistency of the axiom of comprehension in the infinite-valued predicate logic of
ukasiewicz is studied; it is shown that the logic in question is an interesting expansion of
ukasiewicz logic which deserves further investigation together with its further expansions. Several formulas are proved in it and some model theory is offered. In the Appendix A, it is shown that a set theory with full comprehension over this logic (claimed consistent by White) is contradictory.
Keywords:
ukasiewicz fuzzy logic; Cantor-
ukasiewicz set theory; full comprehension
