We provide a direct method for proving Craig interpolation for a range of modal and intuitionistic logics, including those containing a "converse" modality. We demonstrate this method for classical tense logic, its extensions with path…

We formalise and mechanise a construtive, proof theoretic proof of Craig's Interpolation Theorem in Isabelle/HOL. We give all the definitions and lemma statements both formally and informally. We also transcribe informally the formal…

We focus on the persistence principle over weak interpretability logic. Our object of study is the logic obtained by adding the persistence principle to weak interpretability logic from several perspectives. Firstly, we prove that this…

This paper develops a general methodology to connect propositional and first-order interpolation. In fact, the existence of suitable skolemizations and of Herbrand expansions together with a propositional interpolant suffice to construct a…

This paper is a historical tour of occurrences of the Craig interpolation theorem and the Beth definability theorem in philosophy since the 1950s. We identify the notion of dependence as one major red thread behind these, and include some…

We examine the interplay between projectivity (in the sense that was introduced by S.~Ghilardi) and uniform post-interpolant for the classical and intuitionistic propositional logic. More precisely, we explore whether a projective…

Normal modal logics extending the logic K4.3 of linear transitive frames are known to lack the Craig interpolation property, except some logics of bounded depth such as S5. We turn this `negative' fact into a research question and pursue a…

For every univariate formula $\chi$ we introduce a lattices of intermediate theories: the lattice of $\chi$-logics. The key idea to define chi-logics is to interpret atomic propositions as fixpoints of the formula $\chi^2$, which can be…

Modal separability for modal fixpoint formulae is the problem to decide for two given modal fixpoint formulae $\varphi,\varphi'$ whether there is a modal formula $\psi$ that separates them, in the sense that $\varphi\models\psi$ and…

We introduce the following linear combination interpolation problem (LCI): Given $N$ distinct numbers $w_1,\ldots w_N$ and $N+1$ complex numbers $a_1,\ldots, a_N$ and $c$, find all functions $f(z)$ analytic in a simply connected set…

None of the first-order modal logics between $\mathsf{K}$ and $\mathsf{S5}$ under the constant domain semantics enjoys Craig interpolation or projective Beth definability, even in the language restricted to a single individual variable. It…

Semiconic idempotent logic sCI is a common generalization of intuitionistic logic, semilinear idempotent logic sLI, and in particular relevance logic with mingle. We establish the projective Beth definability property and the deductive…

Stone-type duality theorems, which relate algebraic and relational/topological models, are important tools in logic because -- in addition to elegant abstraction -- they strengthen soundness and completeness to a categorical equivalence,…

We consider the family of guarded and unguarded ordered logics, that constitute a recently rediscovered family of decidable fragments of first-order logic (FO), in which the order of quantification of variables coincides with the order in…

We prove the uniform Lyndon interpolation property (ULIP) of some extensions of the pure logic of necessitation $\mathbf{N}$. For any $m, n \in \mathbb{N}$, $\mathbf{N}^+\mathbf{A}_{m,n}$ is the logic obtained from $\mathbf{N}$ by adding a…
