We introduce a novel, logic-independent framework for the study of sequent-style proof systems, which covers a number of proof-theoretic formalisms and concrete proof systems that appear in the literature. In particular, we introduce a…
The increasing popularity of automated tools for software and hardware verification puts ever increasing demands on the underlying decision procedures. This paper presents a framework for distributed decision procedures (for first-order…
In this paper we present a cut-free sequent calculus, called SeqS, for some standard conditional logics, namely CK, CK+ID, CK+MP and CK+MP+ID. The calculus uses labels and transition formulas and can be used to prove decidability and space…
One of the main challenges in software verification is efficient and precise compositional analysis of programs with procedures and loops. Interpolation methods remain one of the most promising techniques for such verification, and are…
In this work, we explore proof theoretical connections between sequent, nested and labelled calculi. In particular, we show a general algorithm for transforming a class of nested systems into sequent calculus systems, passing through linear…
We present a clausal resolution-based method for normal multimodal logics of confluence, whose Kripke semantics are based on frames characterised by appropriate instances of the Church-Rosser property. Here we restrict attention to eight…
We study an intuitionistic version of common knowledge logic (CK), called ICK, which was introduced by J\"ager and Marti. ICK extends intuitionistic propositional logic (IPL) by multiple box modalities interpreted as knowledge operators for…
We show that the variety of modal lattices has the superamalgamation property. As a consequence, we obtain that the weak positive modal logic has the Craig interpolation property. Our proof employs the recent duality for modal lattices…
Hybrid logic is a modal logic with additional operators specifying nominals and is highly expressive. For example, there is no formula corresponding to the irreflexivity of Kripke frames in basic modal logic, but there is in hybrid logic.…
Uniform interpolation is a strong form of interpolation providing an interpretation of propositional quantifiers within a propositional logic. Pitts' seminal work establishes this property for intuitionistic propositional logic relying on a…
The logic IK is the intuitionistic variant of modal logic introduced by Fischer Servi, Plotkin and Stirling, and studied by Simpson. This logic is considered a fundamental intuitionstic modal system as it corresponds, modulo the standard…
A type theory is presented that combines (intuitionistic) linear types with type dependency, thus properly generalising both intuitionistic dependent type theory and full linear logic. A syntax and complete categorical semantics are…
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…
Quantifier elimination (QE) and Craig interpolation (CI) are central to various state-of-the-art automated approaches to hardware and software verification. They are rooted in the Boolean setting and are successful for, e.g., first-order…
Interpolation of jointly infeasible predicates plays important roles in various program verification techniques such as invariant synthesis and CEGAR. Intrigued by the recent result by Dai et al.\ that combines real algebraic geometry and…
The paper presents a solution to the long-standing question about the decidability of the two-variable fragment of the superintuitionistic predicate logic $\mathbf{QLC}$ defined by the class of linear Kripke frames, which is also the…
We introduce the class of rational Kripke models and study symbolic model checking of the basic tense logic Kt and some extensions of it in models from that class. Rational Kripke models are based on (generally infinite) rational graphs,…
This paper studies the relationship between labelled and nested calculi for propositional intuitionistic logic, first-order intuitionistic logic with non-constant domains and first-order intuitionistic logic with constant domains. It is…
In this paper we prove that the uniform one-dimensional guarded fragment, which is a natural polyadic generalization of the guarded two-variable logic, has the Craig interpolation property. We will also prove that the satisfiability problem…
We devise three strategies for recognizing admissibility of non-standard inference rules via interpolation, uniform interpolation, and model completions. We apply our machinery to the case of symmetric implication calculus $\mathsf{S^2IC}$,…
