The language of modal logic is capable of expressing first-order conditions on Kripke frames. The classic result by Henrik Sahlqvist identifies a significant class of modal formulas for which first-order conditions -- or Sahlqvist…

The present paper proposes a new introductory treatment of the very well known Sahlqvist correspondence theory for classical modal logic. The first motivation for the present treatment is {\em pedagogical}: classical Sahlqvist…

Sabotage modal logic (SML) is a kind of dynamic logics. It extends static modal logic with a dynamic modality which is interpreted as "after deleting an arrow in the frame, the formula is true". In the present paper, we are aiming at…

The present paper establishes systematic connections among the first-order correspondents of Sahlqvist modal reduction principles in various relational semantic settings which include crisp and many-valued Kripke frames, and crisp and…

The aim of the present paper is to generalise Sahlqvist correspondence theory to the many-valued modal semantics defined by Fitting, assuming a perfect Heyting algebra as truth value space. We present the standard translations between…

We extend unified correspondence theory to Kripke frames with impossible worlds and their associated regular modal logics. These are logics the modal connectives of which are not required to be normal: only the weaker properties of…

The present paper develops a unified correspondence treatment of the Sahlqvist theory for possibility semantics, extending the results in \cite{Ya16} from Sahlqvist formulas to the strictly larger class of inductive formulas, and from the…

In the present paper, we develop the algorithmic correspondence theory for hybrid logic with binder. We define the class of Sahlqvist inequalities, each inequality of which is shown to have a first-order frame correspondent effectively…

We present an extension and generalization of Sahlqvist--Van Benthem correspondence to the case of distribution-free modal logic, with, or without negation and/or implication connectives. We follow a reductionist strategy, reducing the…

In this paper we consider the normal modal logics of elementary classes defined by first-order formulas of the form $\forall x_0 \exists x_1 \dots \exists x_n \bigwedge x_i R_\lambda x_j$. We prove that many properties of these logics, such…

In recent years, unified correspondence has been developed as a generalized Sahlqvist theory which applies uniformly to all signatures of normal and regular (distributive) lattice expansions. This includes a general definition of the…

Modal formulae express monadic second-order properties on Kripke frames, but in many important cases these have first-order equivalents. Computing such equivalents is important for both logical and computational reasons. On the other hand,…

Sahlqvist formulas are a syntactically specified class of modal formulas proposed by Hendrik Sahlqvist in 1975. They are important because of their first-order definability and canonicity, and hence axiomatize complete modal logics. The…

Sahlqvist theory is extended to the fragments of the intuitionistic propositional calculus that include the conjunction connective. This allows us to introduce a Sahlqvist theory of intuitionistic character amenable to arbitrary…

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…

In the present paper, we investigate the Sahlqvist-type correspondence theory for instantial neighbourhood logic (INL), which can talk about existential information about the neighbourhoods of a given world and is a mixture between…

Recent published work has addressed the Shalqvist correspondence problem for non-distributive logics. The natural question that arises is to identify the fragment of first-order logic that corresponds to logics without distribution, lifting…

We extend the theory of unified correspondence to a very broad class of logics with algebraic semantics given by varieties of normal lattice expansions (LEs), also known as `lattices with operators'. Specifically, we introduce a very…

Monadic second order logic and linear temporal logic are two logical formalisms that can be used to describe classes of infinite words, i.e., first-order models based on the natural numbers with order, successor, and finitely many unary…

Semi-algebraic proof systems such as sum-of-squares (SoS) have attracted a lot of attention recently due to their relation to approximation algorithms: constant degree semi-algebraic proofs lead to conjecturally optimal polynomial-time…
