In recent work, Stalnaker proposes a logical framework in which belief is realized as a weakened form of knowledge. Building on Stalnaker's core insights, and using frameworks developed in previous work by Bjorndahl and Baltag et al., we…

In this paper, we study the provability logic of intuitionistic theories of arithmetic that prove their own completeness. We prove a completeness theorem for theories equipped with two provability predicates $\Box$ and $\triangle$ that…

We develop a second-order extension of intuitionistic modal logic, allowing quantification over propositions, both syntactically and semantically. A key feature of second-order logic is its capacity to define positive connectives from the…

Linear logic was conceived in 1987 by Girard and, in contrast to classical logic, restricts the usage of the structural inference rules of weakening and contraction. With this, atoms of the logic are no longer interpreted as truth, but as…

We axiomatize the provability logic of $\HA$ and prove its decidability. Furthermore, we axiomatize the preservativity and relative admissibility relations for several modal logics extending iK4. A principal technical tool is the…

The language of linear temporal logic can be interpreted over the class of dynamic topological systems, giving rise to the intuitionistic temporal logic ${{\sf ITL}^{\sf c}}_{\Diamond,\forall}$, recently shown to be decidable by…

We explore various semantic understandings of dual intuitionistic logic by exploring the relationship between co-Heyting algebras and topological spaces. First, we discuss the relevant ideas in the setting of Heyting algebras and…

Propositional term modal logic is interpreted over Kripke structures with unboundedly many accessibility relations and hence the syntax admits variables indexing modalities and quantification over them. This logic is undecidable, and we…

Motivated by questions like: which spatial structures may be characterized by means of modal logic, what is the logic of space, how to encode in modal logic different geometric relations, topological logic provides a framework for studying…

We present an abstract unifying framework for interpreting Stone-type dualities; several known dualities are seen to be instances of just one topos-theoretic phenomenon, and new dualities are introduced. In fact, infinitely many new…

A topological space is \emph{hereditarily $k$-irresolvable} if none of its subspaces can be partitioned into $k$ dense subsets, We use this notion to provide a topological semantics for a sequence of modal logics whose $n$-th member…

Modal probabilistic logics provide a framework for reasoning about probability in modal contexts, involving notions such as knowledge, belief, time, and action. In this paper, we study a particular family of these logics, extending the…

From a logical point of view, Stone duality for Boolean algebras relates theories in classical propositional logic and their collections of models. The theories can be seen as presentations of Boolean algebras, and the collections of models…

Nakano's "later" modality, inspired by G\"{o}del-L\"{o}b provability logic, has been applied in type systems and program logics to capture guarded recursion. Birkedal et al modelled this modality via the internal logic of the topos of…

In this paper, we study logics of bounded distributive residuated lattices with modal operators considering $\Box$ and $\Diamond$ in a noncommutative setting. We introduce relational semantics for such substructural modal logics. We prove…

Unlike in classical modal logic, in non-classical modal logics the box and diamond operators frequently fail to be interdefinable. Instead, these logics impose some compatibility conditions which tie the box and diamond operators together…

Graded modal logic is the formal language obtained from ordinary (propositional) modal logic by endowing its modal operators with cardinality constraints. Under the familiar possible-worlds semantics, these augmented modal operators receive…
