We give a proof-theoretic as well as a semantic characterization of a logic in the signature with conjunction, disjunction, negation, and the universal and existential quantifiers that we suggest has a certain fundamental status. We present…
We introduce an intuitionistic modal logic strictly contained in the intuitionistic modal logic IK and being an appropriate candidate for the title of ``minimal normal intuitionistic modal logic''.
In this paper, we consider the complexity of propositional proofs of classical and intuitionistic tautologies. In fact, we describe a nondeterministic polynomial-time decision procedure for intuitionistic implicational tautologies. For this…
We present a comprehensive programme analysing the decomposition of proof systems for non-classical logics into proof systems for other logics, especially classical logic, using an algebra of constraints. That is, one recovers a proof…
The approach taken by Gheorghiu, Gu and Pym in their paper on giving a Base-extension Semantics for Intuitionistic Multiplicative Linear Logic is an interesting adaptation of the work of Sandqvist for IPL to the substructural setting. What…
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…
We present a simpler way than usual to deduce the completeness theorem for the second-oder classical logic from the first-order one. We also extend our method to the case of second-order intuitionistic logic.
We present a proof system that extends action logic by omega iteration, which is viewed as infinitary multiplicative conjunction. We prove cut admissibility and establish complexity bounds for the provability predicate.
It is standard to regard the intuitionistic restriction of a classical logic as increasing the expressivity of the logic because the classical logic can be adequately represented in the intuitionistic logic by double-negation, while the…
We explore the problem of explaining observations in contexts involving statements with truth degrees such as `the lift is loaded', `the symptoms are severe', etc. To formalise these contexts, we consider infinitely-valued {\L}ukasiewicz…
Log-concave sampling has witnessed remarkable algorithmic advances in recent years, but the corresponding problem of proving lower bounds for this task has remained elusive, with lower bounds previously known only in dimension one. In this…
In this note, by integrating ideas concerning terminating tableaux-based procedures in modal logics and finite frame property of intuitionistic modal logic IK, we provide new and simpler decidability proofs for FIK and LIK.
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…
Logic-based approaches to AI have the advantage that their behaviour can in principle be explained by providing their users with proofs for the derived consequences. However, if such proofs get very large, then it may be hard to understand…
In this paper, we use a new method to prove cut-elimination of weak intuitionistic tense logic. This method focuses on splitting the contraction rule and cut rules. Further general theories and applications of this method shall be developed…
We prove that there is a factor of the Muchnik lattice that captures intuitionistic propositional logic. This complements a now classic result of Skvortsova for the Medvedev lattice.
We present the logic IBV, which is an intuitionistic version of BV, in the sense that its restriction to the MLL connectives is exactly IMLL, the intuitionistic version of MLL. For this logic we give a deep inference proof system and show…
A previous article shows that any linear height bounded normal proof of a tautology in the Natural Deduction for Minimal implicational logic $M_{\supset}$ is as huge as it is redundant. More precisely, any proof in a family of…
Based on an analysis of the inference rules used, we provide a characterization of the situations in which classical provability entails intuitionistic provability. We then examine the relationship of these derivability notions to uniform…
In this paper, we study logics of dependence on the propositional level. We prove that several interesting propositional logics of dependence, including propositional dependence logic, propositional intuitionistic dependence logic as well…
