Regular entailment relations

Regular entailment relations (pdf)
with Thierry Coquand and Stefan Neuwirth. (2019).

Abstract
Inspired by the work of Lorenzen on the theory of ordered groups in the fifties, we define regular entailment relations and show a crucial theorem for this structure. We also describe equivariant systems of ideals à la Lorenzen and show that the remarkable regularisation process invented by him furnishes a regular entailment relation. By providing constructive objects and arguments, we pursue Lorenzen's aim of ``bringing to light the basic, pure concepts in their simple and transparent clarity''.
