			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Counterexample:</p>
<p>Γ = {}</p>
<p>φ = p(x)</p>
<p>ψ = ∀x p(x)</p>
<p>Now, applying Deduction Theorem, from prop. logic, substituting above Γ |= (φ ⇒ ψ) iff Γ ∪ {φ} |= ψ yields:</p>
<p>({} |= (p(x) ⇒ ∀x p(x)) ⇔ ({p(x)} |= ∀x p(x))</p>
<p>The LHS of this equivalence is the logical entailment {} |= (p(x) ⇒ ∀x p(x). For this entailment to be true we need the logical sentence p(x) ⇒ ∀x p(x) to be valid in relational logic, but we have shown that p(x) ⇒ ∀x p(x) is contingent. Therefore the entailment is false.</p>
<p>On RHS, we have the entailment {p(x)} |= ∀x p(x). Consider the following short proof:</p>
<p>1    p(x)           Premise<br />
2   ∀x p(x)      UG</p>
<p>Thus {p(x)} |- ∀x p(x) and, by soundness, {p(x)} |= ∀x p(x). So the right-hand entailment is true.</p>
<p>Since assuming the Deduction Theorem for prop. Logic holds for relational logic leads to the contradictory equivalence F ⇔ T, our assumption must be false; i.e. DT does not hold.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is a close connection between provability and logical entailment. In fact, they are equivalent. A set of sentences Δ logically entails a sentence φ if and only if φ is provable from Δ.</p>
<p><em>Soundness Theorem:</em> If φ is provable from Δ, then Δ logically entails φ.</p>
<p><em>Completeness Theorem:</em> If Δ logically entails φ, then φ is provable from Δ.</p>
<p>The concept of provability is important because it suggests how we can automate the determination of logical entailment. Starting from a set of premises Δ, we enumerate conclusions from this set. If a sentence φ appears, then it is provable from Δ and is, therefore, a logical consequence. If the negation of φ appears, then ¬φ is a logical consequence of Δ and φ is not logically entailed (unless Δ is inconsistent). Note that it is possible that neither φ nor ¬φ will appear.</p>
