A calculus for modal compact Hausdorff spaces
Abstract
The symmetric strict implication calculus is a modal calculus for compact Hausdorff spaces. This is established through de Vries duality, linking compact Hausdorff spaces with de Vries algebras-complete Boolean algebras equipped with a special relation. Modal compact Hausdorff spaces are compact Hausdorff spaces enriched with a continuous relation. These spaces correspond, via modalized de Vries duality, to upper continuous modal de Vries algebras. In this paper we introduce the modal symmetric strict implication calculus , which extends . We prove that is strongly sound and complete with respect to upper continuous modal de Vries algebras, thereby providing a logical calculus for modal compact Hausdorff spaces. We also develop a relational semantics for that we employ to show admissibility of various -rules in this system.
