Abstract

Here we generalize the notions of determinative conjunct and strongly equal tautologies formany-valued logic (MVL) and  compare the proof complexity measures of strongly equal many-valued tautologies in some proof systems of MVL. It is proved  that in some “weak”   proof system the strongly equal many-valued tautologies have the same proof complexities, while in the “strong” proof systems the measures of proof complexities for strongly equal tautologies can essentially differ from each other.
