In this paper we present analytic tableau proof systems for various justification logics. We show that the tableau systems are sound and complete with respect to Mkrtychev models. In order to prove the completeness of the tableaux, we give…
In this paper we present a tableau proof system for first order logic of proofs FOLP. We show that the tableau system is sound and complete with respect to Mkrtychev models of FOLP.
This paper revisits soundness and completeness of proof systems for proving that sets of states in infinite-state labeled transition systems satisfy formulas in the modal mu-calculus. Our results rely on novel results in lattice theory,…
In is paper we present a labelled tableau proof system that serves a wide class of interpretability logics. The system is proved sound and complete for any interpretability logic characterised by a frame condition given by a set of…
We set out a general methodology for producing tableau systems for propositional logics via a tableau metatheory that provides general and formal notions for different tableau systems that vary by semantics or formulae. Moreover, by dint of…
We prove the syntactic soundness of classical tableaux with free variables and on-the-fly Skolemization. Soundness proofs are usually built from semantic arguments, and this is to our knowledge, the first proof that appeals to syntactic…
This paper presents a method for synthesising sound and complete tableau calculi. Given a specification of the formal semantics of a logic, the method generates a set of tableau inference rules that can then be used to reason within the…
A number of flexible tactic-based logical frameworks are nowadays available that can implement a wide range of mathematical theories using a common higher-order metalanguage. Used as proof assistants, one of the advantages of such powerful…
A semantic tableau method, called an argumentation tableau, that enables the derivation of arguments, is proposed. First, the derivation of arguments for standard propositional and predicate logic is addressed. Next, an extension that…
The paper is a contribution both to the theoretical foundations and to the actual construction of efficient automatizable proof procedures for non-classical logics. We focus here on the case of finite-valued logics, and exhibit: (i) a…
We introduce a proper multi-type display calculus for bilattice logic (with conflation) for which we prove soundness, completeness, conservativity, standard subformula property and cut-elimination. Our proposal builds on the product…
We give a calculus for reasoning about the first-order fragment of classical logic that is adequate for giving the truth conditions of intuitionistic Kripke frames, and outline a proof-theoretic soundness and completeness proof, which we…
It is well known that the resolution method (for propositional logic) is complete. However, completeness proofs found in the literature use an argument by contradiction showing that if a set of clauses is unsatisfiable, then it must have a…
This article will be a continuation of our research into self-justifying systems. It will introduce several new theorems and their applications. (One of these results will transform our previous infinite-sized self-verifying formalisms into…
Justification Logics provide a framework for reasoning about justifications and evidences. Most of the accounts of justification logics are crisp in the sense that agent's justifications for a statement is convincing or is not. In this…
Refutation calculi are formal systems developed to derive the invalid formulas of a given logic. While the notion of refutation calculi has played a key role in the development of tableaux calculi, a refutation approach to display calculi…
There have been several recent suggestions for tableau systems for deciding satisfiability in the practically important branching time temporal logic known as CTL*. In this paper we present a streamlined and more traditional tableau…
Fixpoints are an important ingredient in semantics, abstract interpretation and program logics. Their addition to a logic can add considerable expressive power. One general issue is how to define proof systems for such logics. Here we…
We study $Q$-tableaux and axiom systems that they engender, producing a new proof that the Implicational Propositional Calculus is complete.
We present tableau calculi for some logics of nonmonotonic reasoning, as defined by Kraus, Lehmann and Magidor. We give a tableau proof procedure for all KLM logics, namely preferential, loop-cumulative, cumulative and rational logics. Our…
