  PURPOSE:
    Represent mathematical logic as a formal, machine-interpretable system for expressing and evaluating propositions, predicates, terms, formulas, quantifiers, logical connectives, axioms, inference rules, proofs, theories, interpretations and models. The ontology provides AI systems with explicit semantic boundaries between syntax and semantics, truth and provability, satisfiability and validity, implication and causation, consistency and completeness, formal deduction and heuristic inference, and object-level claims versus metalinguistic claims. It supports propositional and predicate reasoning, first-order structures, proof validation, semantic consequence, model construction, countermodels, automated reasoning, contradiction detection, recursive dependency checking, versioning and provenance.
