Extending and generalizing the approach of 2-sequents (Masini, 1992), we present sequent calculi for the classical modal logics in the K, D, T, S4 spectrum. The systems are presented in a uniform way-different logics are obtained by tuning…

We show that it is possible to obtain an $O(\epsilon^{-4/3})$ expected runtime --- including computational cost --- for finding $\epsilon$-stationary points of smooth nonconvex functions using cutting plane methods. This improves on the…

We introduce a sequent calculus for the propositional team logic with both the split disjunction and the inquisitive disjunction consisting of a Gentzen-style system (G3-like) for classical propositional logic together with two…

We lift the SCL calculus for first-order logic without equality to the SCL(T) calculus for first-order logic without equality modulo a background theory. In a nutshell, the SCL(T) calculus describes a new way to guide hierarchic resolution…

Proof assistants and programming languages based on type theories usually come in two flavours: one is based on the standard natural deduction presentation of type theory and involves eliminators, while the other provides a syntax in…

In this note we will show how to get consistency for first order classical logic, in a purely syntactic way, without going through cut elimination. The procedure is very simple and it uses the calculus of structures in an essential way. It…

In recent years, the effort to formalize erotetic inferences---i.e., inferences to and from questions---has become a central concern for those working in erotetic logic. However, few have sought to formulate a proof theory for these…

We describe a simple method that produces automatically closed forms for the coefficients of continued fractions expansions of a large number of special functions. The function is specified by a non-linear differential equation and initial…

We demonstrate that shearlet systems yield superior $N$-term approximation rates compared with wavelet systems of functions whose first or higher order derivatives are smooth away from smooth discontinuity curves. We will also provide an…

As part of a broader family of logics, [1, 3] introduced two key logical systems: $\mathsf{iK_{d}}$, which encapsulates the basic logical structure of dynamic topological systems, and $\mathsf{iK_{d*}}$, which provides a well-behaved yet…

We present a bisequent calculus (BSC) for the minimal theory of definite descriptions (DD) in the setting of neutral free logic, where formulae with non-denoting terms have no truth value. The treatment of quantifiers, atomic formulae and…

This paper explores the connection between two central results in the proof theory of classical logic: Gentzen's cut-elimination for the sequent calculus and Herbrands "fundamental theorem". Starting from Miller's expansion-tree-proofs, a…

The $\epsilon$-subdifferential of convex univariate piecewise linear-quadratic functions can be computed in linear worst-case time complexity as the level-set of a convex function. Using dichotomic search, we show how the computation can be…

Intuitionistic grammar logics fuse constructive and multi-modal reasoning while permitting the use of converse modalities, serving as a generalization of standard intuitionistic modal logics. In this paper, we provide definitions of these…
