False (logic) - Wikipedia

False (logic)

In logic, false (Its noun form is falsity) or untrue is the state of possessing negative truth value and is a nullary logical connective. In a truth-functional system of propositional logic, it is one of two postulated truth values, along with its negation, truth.1 Usual notations of the false are 0 (especially in Boolean logic and computer science), O (in prefix notation, O pq), and the up tack symbol .23

Another approach is used for several formal theories (e.g., intuitionistic propositional calculus), where a propositional constant (i.e. a nullary connective), , is introduced, the truth value of which being always false in the sense above.456 It can be treated as an absurd proposition, and is often called absurdity.
