    The author uses semantic structures consisting of a partially ordered set underlying a complete Heyting lattice and a designated member of the set to establish the following independence results for higher order intuitionistic and intermediate logics: (1) the conditional and the universal quantifier are not definable; (2) any definition of negation, disjunction, conjunction or existential quantification requires both the conditional and the universal quantifier.
