Often, we assume that an action is permitted simply because it is not explicitly forbidden; or, similarly, that an action is forbidden simply because it is not explicitly permitted. This kind of assumptions appear, e.g., in autonomous…

We introduce the Deontic Action Model Logic (DAML), a dynamic modal framework for reasoning about obligations over actions in multi-agent systems. DAML extends the epistemic Action Model Logic by incorporating deontic evaluation mechanisms…

Deontic logic is a very well researched branch of mathematical logic and philosophy. Various kinds of deontic logics are discussed for different application domains like argumentation theory, legal reasoning, and acts in multi-agent…

Non-normal modal logics, interpreted on neighbourhood models which generalise the usual relational semantics, have found application in several areas, such as epistemic, deontic, and coalitional reasoning. We present here preliminary…

We consider the problem of implementing deontic modal logic. We show how (deontic) modal operators can be elegantly and directly expressed using default negation (negation-as-failure) and strong negation present in answer set programming…

In this paper we investigate further the tableaux system for a deontic action logic we presented in previous work. This tableaux system uses atoms (of a given boolean algebra of action terms) as labels of formulae, this allows us to embrace…

The use of meta-rules in logic, i.e., rules whose content includes other rules, has recently gained attention in the setting of non-monotonic reasoning: a first logical formalisation and efficient algorithms to compute the (meta)-extensions…

Dynamic Epistemic Logic (DEL) is a family of multimodal logics that has proved to be very successful for epistemic reasoning in planning tasks. In this logic, the agent's knowledge is captured by modal epistemic operators whereas the system…

We continue to develop a research line initiated in \cite{wollic22}, studying I/O logic from an algebraic approach based on subordination algebras. We introduce the classes of slanted (co-)Heyting algebras as equivalent presentations of…

In the present paper, we propose Abstract Algebraic Logic (AAL) as a general logical framework for Judgment Aggregation. Our main contribution is a generalization of Herzberg's algebraic approach to characterization results in on judgment…

In order to design and engineer ethical and legal reasoners and responsible systems, Benzm\"{u}ller, Parent and van der Torre introduced the LogiKEy methodology, based on the semantical embedding of deontic logics into classic higher-order…

Non-classical generalizations of classical modal logic have been developed in the contexts of constructive mathematics and natural language semantics. In this paper, we discuss a general approach to the semantics of non-classical modal…

By a De Morgan algebra is meant a bounded poset equipped with an antitone involution considered as negation. Such an algebra can be considered as an algebraic axiomatization of a propositional logic satisfying the double negation law. Our…

The foundational character of certain algebraic structures as Boolean algebras and Heyting algebras is rooted in their potential to model classical and constructive logic, respectively. In this paper we discuss the contributions of…

In our previous research, we provided a reasoning system (called LeSAC) based on argumentation theory to provide legal support to designers during the design process. Building on this, this paper explores how to provide designers with…

In many real-life settings, agents must navigate dynamic environments while reasoning under incomplete information and acting on a corpus of unstable, context-dependent, and often conflicting norms. We introduce a general, non-modal,…

We present a coalgebraic framework for studying generalisations of dynamic modal logics such as PDL and game logic in which both the propositions and the semantic structures can take values in an algebra $\mathbf{A}$ of truth-degrees. More…
