We call these constants as well as any other terms whose type ends in "-> pf" proof constructors.
We introduce constants for the object-level type constructors.
We denote variables, predicate symbols and function symbols with small letters and constants with capital letters.
In a many-sorted signature, we will have different constants 'a', each one of an appropriate sort.
An extended set expression is an expression built out of variables, base symbols, function symbols (including constants), and the generalized projection symbols.
We consider a first order language with a universe of constants, a set of variables, a set of predicate names and no function symbols.
Fragments of propositional logic are obtained by restricting the use of atoms, constants and/or the use of the connectives.
The rate constants did not vary much among the different treatments, except for osmoprimed seeds during the initial 6-h period of hydration and dehydration.
