material nonimplication

Material nonimplication is the negation of material implication. Its logical connective is represented , written \nRightarrow.

Boolean material nonimplication is an operation which takes as input two logical truth values; it returns a value of true if and only if both its antecedent is true and its consequent is false, and false otherwise.

Notation

The material nonimplication of propositions from P to Q is generally written PQ.
