It is a formal notation for logic that is nothing particularly like algebra. (The horizontal bar is not division, the turnstile is not a binary operation.) It's a new "syntax of symbols" that you need to learn to read in order to read logic papers.
Note: Strange I did great in Algebra, Calculus, etc back in H.S. and college but proofs and such look gibberish. Maybe I should've taken a class with set theory or formal logic, eh? Paying for it now as I skim formal methods & FP papers...
