We establish the strictness of several set quantifier alternation hierarchies that are based on modal logic, evaluated on various classes of finite graphs. This extends to the modal setting a celebrated result of Matz, Schweikardt and…

We propose a fragment of many-sorted second order logic called EQSMT and show that checking satisfiability of sentences in this fragment is decidable. EQSMT formulae have an $\exists^*\forall^*$ quantifier prefix (over variables, functions…

An important characteristic of many logics for Artificial Intelligence is their nonmonotonicity. This means that adding a formula to the premises can invalidate some of the consequences. There may, however, exist formulae that can always be…

This paper constructs a cirquent calculus system and proves its soundness and completeness with respect to the semantics of computability logic (see http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~giorgi/cl.html). The logical vocabulary of the system consists of…

The paper is a contribution both to the theoretical foundations and to the actual construction of efficient automatizable proof procedures for non-classical logics. We focus here on the case of finite-valued logics, and exhibit: (i) a…

We introduce continuation semantics for both fixpoint modal logic (FML) and Computation Tree Logic* (CTL*), parameterised by a choice of branching type and quantitative predicate lifting. Our main contribution is proving that they are…

This paper develops a novel nested sequent proof-search methodology for intuitionistic tense logics (ITLs), supporting finite counter-model extraction. We introduce a new loop-checking method that detects repeating nested sequents using…

Sequential propositional logic deviates from ordinary propositional logic by taking into account that during the sequential evaluation of a propositional statement,atomic propositions may yield different Boolean values at repeated…

Propositional and modal inclusion logic are formalisms that belong to the family of logics based on team semantics. This article investigates the model checking and validity problems of these logics. We identify complexity bounds for both…

We consider a language together with the subword relation, the cover relation, and regular predicates. For such structures, we consider the extension of first-order logic by threshold- and modulo-counting quantifiers. Depending on the…

Regular tree grammars and regular path expressions constitute core constructs widely used in programming languages and type systems. Nevertheless, there has been little research so far on frameworks for reasoning about path expressions…

We consider an extension of bi-intuitionistic logic with the traditional modalities from tense logic Kt. Proof theoretically, this extension is obtained simply by extending an existing sequent calculus for bi-intuitionistic logic with…

We introduce a new logic that combines Adjoint Logic with Graded Necessity Modalities. This results in a very expressive system capable of controlling when and how structural rules are used. We give a sequent calculus, natural deduction,…

Default logic encounters some conceptual difficulties in representing common sense reasoning tasks. We argue that we should not try to formulate modular default rules that are presumed to work in all or most circumstances. We need to take…

We define and axiomatize three new logics based on the connexive logic $\mathsf{C}$, the modal logic $\mathsf{CnK}$ and the conditional logics $\mathsf{CnCK}$ and $\mathsf{CnCK}_R$. These logics display strong connexivity properties and are…

A logic is presented for reasoning on iterated sequences of formulae over some given base language. The considered sequences, or "schemata", are defined inductively, on some algebraic structure (for instance the natural numbers, the lists,…

We consider a modal logic that can formalise statements about uncertainty and beliefs such as `I think that my wallet is in the drawer rather than elsewhere' or `I am confused whether my appointment is on Monday or Tuesday'. To do that, we…

We study the relation between additivity and deduction theorems in the algebraic semantics of congruential modal logic. Additivity of the modal operator is well-known to imply the local deduction-detachment theorem. Our main theme is that…
