We propose a cut-free cyclic system for Transitive Closure Logic (TCL) based on a form of hypersequents, suitable for automated reasoning via proof search. We show that previously proposed sequent systems are cut-free incomplete for basic…

Cut-elimination is the bedrock of proof theory. It is the algorithm that eliminates cuts from a sequent calculus proof that leads to cut-free calculi and applications. Cut-elimination applies to many logics irrespective of their semantics.…

The majority of existing Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) planning methods rely on the construction of a discrete product automaton, that combines a discrete abstraction of robot mobility and a B$\ddot{\text{u}}$chi automaton that captures the…

We propose a validity preserving translation from a subset of epistemic Alternating-time Temporal Logic (ATL) to epistemic Computation Tree Logic (CTL). The considered subset of epistemic ATL is known to have the finite model property and…

In multi-agent system design, a crucial aspect is to ensure robustness, meaning that for a coalition of agents A, small violations of adversarial assumptions only lead to small violations of A's goals. In this paper we introduce a logical…

Large Language Models (LLMs) struggle with multi-step reasoning over structured tables. The primary reason is the lack of explicit supervision for intermediate reasoning states. Existing learned reward models or executor-based verifiers are…
