Higher-Order Modal Logic—A Sketch
... In first-order logic, relation symbols have an arity. In higher-order logic this gets replaced by a typing mechanism. There are several ways this can be done: logical connectives can be considered primitive, or as constants of the language; a boolean type can be introduced, or not. We adopt a straig ...
