Sandqvist gave a proof-theoretic semantics (P-tS) for classical logic (CL) that explicates the meaning of the connectives without assuming bivalance. Later, he gave a semantics for intuitionistic propositional logic (IPL). While soundness…
We introduce proper display calculi for basic monotonic modal logic, the conditional logic CK and a number of their axiomatic extensions. These calculi are sound, complete, conservative and enjoy cut elimination and subformula property. Our…
The linguistic applications of the Lambek calculus suggest its semantics over algebras of formal languages. A straightforward approach to construct such semantics indeed yields a brilliant completeness theorem (Pentus 1995). However,…
We continue work of our earlier paper (Lewitzka and Brunner: Minimally generated abstract logics, Logica Universalis 3(2), 2009), where abstract logics and particularly intuitionistic abstract logics are studied. Abstract logics can be…
In this paper, we introduce a family of topological spaces that captures the existence of preservation theorems. The structure of those spaces allows us to study the relativisation of preservation theorems under suitable definitions of…
Computability logic is a formal theory of computability. The earlier article "Introduction to cirquent calculus and abstract resource semantics" by Japaridze proved soundness and completeness for the basic fragment CL5 of computability…
Computability logic (CL) is a systematic formal theory of computational tasks and resources, which, in a sense, can be seen as a semantics-based alternative to (the syntactically introduced) linear logic. With its expressive and flexible…
This paper investigates the contingency of logic within the framework of possible world semantics. Possible world semantics captures the meaning of necessitation, i.e., a statement is necessarily true if it holds in all possible worlds.…
We study implicational formulas in the context of proof complexity of intuitionistic propositional logic (IPC). On the one hand, we give an efficient transformation of tautologies to implicational tautologies that preserves the lengths of…
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…
We show that, contrary to the commonly held view, there is a natural and optimal compactness theorem for $\mathrm{L}_{\infty\infty}$ which generalizes the usual compactness theorem for first order logic. The key to this result is the switch…
We show that countable increasing unions preserve a large family of well-studied covering properties, which are not necessarily sigma-additive. Using this, together with infinite-combinatorial methods and simple forcing theoretic methods,…
We prove a topological completeness theorem for the modal logic GLP containing operators $\langle\lambda\rangle$ for $\lambda \in$ Ord intended to capture progressively stronger notions of consistency in mathematical theories. We show that,…
We study abstract intermediate justification logics, that is arbitrary intermediate propositional logics extended with a subset of specific axioms of (classical) justification logics. For these, we introduce various semantics by combining…
In this article we study linear temporal logics with team semantics (TeamLTL) that are novel logics for defining hyperproperties. We define Kamp-type translations of these logics into fragments of first-order team logic and second-order…
The question whether an ontology can safely be replaced by another, possibly simpler, one is fundamental for many ontology engineering and maintenance tasks. It underpins, for example, ontology versioning, ontology modularization,…
We combine continuous and integral logics and found a logical framework for metric measure spaces equipped with a family of continuous relations and operations. We prove the ultraproduct theorem and deduce compactness and other usual…
For any ordinal \Lambda, we can define a polymodal logic GLP(\Lambda), with a modality [\xi] for each \xi<\Lambda. These represent provability predicates of increasing strength. Although GLP(\Lambda) has no Kripke models, Ignatiev showed…
We develop team semantics for Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) to express hyperproperties, which have recently been identified as a key concept in the verification of information flow properties. Conceptually, we consider an asynchronous and a…
We extend description logics (DLs) with non-monotonic reasoning features. We start by investigating a notion of defeasible subsumption in the spirit of defeasible conditionals as studied by Kraus, Lehmann and Magidor in the propositional…
