Separation logics are a family of extensions of Hoare logic for reasoning about programs that mutate memory. These logics are "abstract" because they are independent of any particular concrete memory model. Their assertion languages, called…
In this note we will show how to get consistency for first order classical logic, in a purely syntactic way, without going through cut elimination. The procedure is very simple and it uses the calculus of structures in an essential way. It…
Interpolation is an important property of classical and many non-classical logics that has been shown to have interesting applications in computer science and AI. Here we study the Interpolation Property for the the non-monotonic system of…
We present a uniform method of density elimination for several semilinear substructural logics. Especially, the density elimination for the involutive uninorm logic IUL is proved. Then the standard completeness of IUL follows as a lemma by…
This paper presents a simple notion of proof net for multiplicative linear logic with units. Cut elimination is direct and strongly normalising, in contrast to previous approaches which resorted to moving jumps (attachments) of par units…
A recent strand of research in structural proof theory aims at exploring the notion of analytic calculi (i.e. those calculi that support general and modular proof-strategies for cut elimination), and at identifying classes of logics that…
In this paper, we present a propositional sequent calculus containing disjoint copies of classical and intuitionistic logics. We prove a cut-elimination theorem and we establish a relation between this system and linear logic.
This paper presents an abstract, mathematical formulation of classical propositional logic. It proceeds layer by layer: (1) abstract, syntax-free propositions; (2) abstract, syntax-free contraction-weakening proofs; (3) distribution; (4)…
As part of a broader family of logics, [1, 3] introduced two key logical systems: $\mathsf{iK_{d}}$, which encapsulates the basic logical structure of dynamic topological systems, and $\mathsf{iK_{d*}}$, which provides a well-behaved yet…
We study the fixed point property and the Craig interpolation property for sublogics of the interpretability logic $\mathbf{IL}$. We provide a complete description of these sublogics concerning the uniqueness of fixed points, the fixed…
Intuitionistic logic extended with decidable propositional atoms combines classical properties in its propositional part and intuitionistic properties for derivable formulas not containing propositional symbols. Sequent calculus is used as…
This paper defines a new proof- and category-theoretic framework for classical linear logic that separates reasoning into one linear regime and two persistent regimes corresponding to ! and ?. The resulting linear/producer/consumer (LPC)…
This Paper investigate sequent calculi for certain weak subintuitionistic logics. We establish that weakening and contraction are height-preserving admissible for each of these calculi, and we provide a syntactic proof for the admissibility…
Uniform interpolation is the property that, for any formula and set of atoms, there exists the strongest consequence omitting those atoms. It plays a central role in knowledge representation and reasoning tasks such as knowledge update and…
In recent research, some of the present authors introduced the concept of an n-dimensional Boolean algebra and its corresponding propositional logic nCL, generalising the Boolean propositional calculus to n>= 2 perfectly symmetric truth…
We review the close relationship between abstract machines for (call-by-name or call-by-value) lambda-calculi (extended with Felleisen's C) and sequent calculus, reintroducing on the way Curien-Herbelin's syntactic kit expressing the…
This paper discusses the semantics and proof theory of Nilsson's probabilistic logic, outlining both the benefits of its well-defined model theory and the drawbacks of its proof theory. Within Nilsson's semantic framework, we derive a set…
The paper studies a cluster of systems for fully disquotational truth based on the restriction of initial sequents. Unlike well-known alternative approaches, such systems display both a simple and intuitive model theory and remarkable…
Full Intuitionistic Linear Logic (FILL) is multiplicative intuitionistic linear logic extended with par. Its proof theory has been notoriously difficult to get right, and existing sequent calculi all involve inference rules with complex…
We present a variation of Maehara's method to construct Craig-Lyndon interpolants for the three-valued propositional logic of here and there (HT), also known as G\"odel's $G_3$, a superintuitionistic logic of importance in logic…
