Material nonimplication

Summary

Material nonimplication or abjunction (la) is a term referring to a logic operation used in generic circuits and Boolean algebra. It is the negation of material implication. That is to say that for any two propositions $P$ and $Q$, the material nonimplication from $P$ to $Q$ is true if and only if the negation of the material implication from $P$ to $Q$ is true. This is more naturally stated as that the material nonimplication from $P$ to $Q$ is true only if $P$ is true and $Q$ is false.
