There is a noticeable trend towards exploring the philosophical dimensions of logic, particularly regarding intuitionistic logic and the axioms of choice, suggesting a deepening inquiry into the foundational aspects of logical systems.
Declining or Waning
- Historical Perspectives on Logic:
Papers that delve into historical analyses of logical systems and figures seem to be declining. The journal has shifted towards more contemporary and applied aspects of logic rather than historical explorations. - Basic Set Theory:
Research that primarily focuses on foundational aspects of set theory, without significant ties to computability or applications, appears to be waning. The trend indicates a preference for more complex interactions between set theory and other areas such as model theory or computability. - Elementary Proofs and Techniques:
The publication of papers emphasizing elementary techniques in logic and proof systems has decreased, suggesting a move towards more sophisticated and intricate methodologies in current research. - Traditional Modal Logic:
While modal logic remains relevant, the focus on traditional modal logic without innovative extensions or connections to other fields is less prominent, indicating a shift towards more modern interpretations and applications.
