A system

where is a non-empty set; ; are binary operations; and is a unary operation on . Any formula of propositional logic, constructed from propositional variables by means of the logical connectives , can be regarded as an -place function on if are assumed to be variables with range of values and the logical connectives are interpreted as the corresponding operations of the logical matrix . A formula is said to be generally valid in if for any values of the variables in the value of belongs to . A logical matrix is said to be characteristic for a propositional calculus if the formulas that are generally valid in are exactly those that are deducible in . An example of a logical matrix is the system

Gödel proved that it is impossible to construct a logical matrix with a finite set that is characteristic for the intuitionistic propositional calculus.
