ZTL Blueprint

2 Laws and rules

Theorem 6 Modus ponens
#

From \(p=T\) and \(p\to q=T\) follows \(q=T\): earned truth is transported.

Theorem 7 Fallen laws

Excluded middle, De Morgan, contraposition-as-identity and \(p\to p\) fail — all only on \(Z\), all are “truth from form”.

Theorem 8 Rules vs laws split

Contraposition survives as an inference rule while failing as an identity; double-negation elimination fails even as a rule. The deduction theorem holds only left-to-right.

Theorem 9 No gluts
#

\(v(p)=v(\neg p)=T\) is unsatisfiable: ZTL is paracomplete, not paraconsistent.
