Model checking linear-time properties expressed in first-order logic has non-elementary complexity, and thus various restricted logical languages are employed. In this paper we consider two such restricted specification logics, linear…

We study two unary fragments of the well-known metric interval temporal logic MITL[U_I,S_I] that was originally proposed by Alur and Henzinger, and we pin down their expressiveness as well as satisfaction complexities. We show that…

A notion of interpretation between arbitrary logics is introduced, and the poset Log of all logics ordered under interpretability is studied. It is shown that in Log infima of arbitrarily large sets exist, but binary suprema in general do…

Tabled logic programming is receiving increasing attention in the Logic Programming community. It avoids many of the shortcomings of SLD execution and provides a more flexible and often extremely efficient execution mechanism for logic…

Differentiable logics are a family of quantitative logics originated in the machine learning literature. Because of their origin, differentiable logics often come equipped with analytic properties that guarantee that they are…

We study fragments of first-order logic and of least fixed point logic that allow only unary negation: negation of formulas with at most one free variable. These logics generalize many interesting known formalisms, including modal logic and…

We give an algebraic proof of the criterion for hereditary structural completeness of an intermediate logic, or, equivalently, of the primitiveness of a variety of Heyting algebras.

We generalize methods, developed by S. Ghilardi, and apply them to a subsystem J$_2$ of bimodal provability logic GLB. We describe projective formulas in J$_2$ in terms of Kripke semantics and prove that logic J$_2$ has finitary unification…

It is well known that for transitive unimodal logics, finite height is both necessary and sufficient for local tabularity. It is also well known that for intermediate logics, finite height is sufficient (but not necessary) for local…

First-order logic is known to have limited expressive power over finite structures. It enjoys in particular the locality property, which states that first-order formulae cannot have a global view of a structure. This limitation ensures on…

Deficiency in expressive power of the first-order logic has led to developing its numerous extensions by fixed point operators, such as Least Fixed-Point (LFP), inflationary fixed-point (IFP), partial fixed-point (PFP), etc. These logics…

The present work presents some results about the categorial relation between logics and its categories of structures. A (propositional, finitary) logic is a pair given by a signature and Tarskian consequence relation on its formula algebra.…

The first-order theory of MALL (multiplicative, additive linear logic) over only equalities is an interesting but weak logic since it cannot capture unbounded (infinite) behavior. Instead of accounting for unbounded behavior via the…

We characterise non-distributive positive logic as the fragment of a single-sorted first-order language that is preserved by a new notion of simulation called a meet-simulation. Meet-simulations distinguish themselves from simulations…

We study three kinds of compactness in some variants of G\"odel logic: compactness, entailment compactness, and approximate entailment compactness. For countable first-order underlying language we use the Henkin construction to prove the…

First-order logic fragments mixing quantifiers, arithmetic, and uninterpreted predicates are often undecidable, as is, for instance, Presburger arithmetic extended with a single uninterpreted unary predicate. In the SMT world, difference…

We present an algorithm for solving the unification problem in the description logic $\mathcal{FL}_\bot$. This logic extends $\mathcal{FL}_0$ with the bottom constructor, and thus supports conjunction, value restrictions, top and bottom…

We present a novel unity of logic, viz., a single sequent calculus that embodies classical, intuitionistic and linear logics. Concretely, we define classical linear logic negative (CLL$^-$), a new logic that is classical and linear yet…

Tabular intermediate logics are intermediate logics characterized by finite posets treated as Kripke frames. For a poset $\mathbb{P}$, let $L(\mathbb{P})$ denote the corresponding tabular intermediate logic. We investigate the complexity of…

A logic has uniform interpolation if its formulas can be projected down to given subsignatures, preserving all logical consequences that do not mention the removed symbols; the weaker property of (Craig) interpolation allows the projected…
