Godel Implication on Finite Chains: Truth Tables and Catalan-Bracketing Enumerations
Abstract
Fully bracketed implication terms on n variables are evaluated in G\"odel m-valued logic on a finite chain, and we enumerate truth-table rows by output value across all Catalan bracketings. Using the Catalan decomposition, we derive a finite system of generating functions for these value counts and introduce a root-split refinement that records the ordered pair of truth values at the top implication, yielding m2 pair classes. We prove that the associated generating functions share a common dominant square-root singularity, which implies a universal n-3/2 asymptotic form with exponential growth rate (4m)n and a limiting output distribution as n∞. The root-split refinement yields matching uniform asymptotics for the pair classes and gives a transparent factorization of the original counts.
