Term modal logics (TML) are modal logics with unboundedly many modalities, with quantification over modal indices, so that we can have formulas of the form $\exists y. \forall x. (\Box_x P(x,y) \supset\Diamond_y P(y,x))$. Like First order…

Justification logics are modal-like logics that provide a framework for reasoning about justifications. This paper introduces labeled sequent calculi for justification logics, as well as for hybrid modal-justification logics. Using the…

We deal with the fragment of modal logic consisting of implications of formulas built up from the variables and the constant `true' by conjunction and diamonds only. The weaker language allows one to interpret the diamonds as the uniform…

The intuitionistic modal logics considered between Constructive K (CK) and Intuitionistic K (IK) differ in their treatment of the possibility (diamond) connective. It was recently rediscovered that some logics between CK and IK also…

We introduce a two-sort weighted modal logic for possibilistic reasoning with fuzzy formal contexts. The syntax of the logic includes two types of weighted modal operators corresponding to classical necessity ($\Box$) and sufficiency…

We present an automated verification of the well-known modal logic cube in Isabelle/HOL, in which we prove the inclusion relations between the cube's logics using automated reasoning tools. Prior work addresses this problem but without…

The branch of provability logic investigates the provability-based behavior of the mathematical theories. In a more precise way, it studies the relation between a mathematical theory $T$ and a modal logic $L$ via the provability…

Non-iterative normal modal logics are defined by axioms of modal degree 1. In this paper we use calculations with normal forms to determine the set of all possible non-iterative normal modal logics, unimodal propositional extensions of K.…

Defeasible logic is an efficient logic for defeasible reasoning. It is defined through a proof theory and, until now, has had no model theory. In this paper a model-theoretic semantics is given for defeasible logic. The logic is sound and…

The necessity to manage inconsistency in Description Logics Knowledge Bases (KBs) has come to the fore with the increasing importance gained by the Semantic Web, where information comes from different sources that constantly change their…

We investigate properties of the formula $p \to \Box p$ in the basic modal logic K. We show that K satisfies an infinitary weaker variant of the rule of margins $\phi \to \Box\phi / \phi, \neg\phi$, and as a consequence, we obtain various…

We describe a graph-theoretic syntax for self-referential formulas as well as a four-valued logic to include contradictory and independent formulas. We then explore the degree to which generalized truth tables can be realized in our theory,…

Inquisitive modal logic InqML is a generalisation of standard Kripke-style modal logic. In its epistemic incarnation, it extends standard epistemic logic to capture not just the information that agents have, but also the questions that they…

To formalize patterns of information increase and decrease, Van Benthem (1996) proposed modal information logic (MIL), a modal logic over partial orders. In MIL, points are interpreted as information states and least upper bounds, when…

This paper gives a broad account of the various sequent-based proof formalisms in the proof-theoretic literature. We consider formalisms for various modal and tense logics, intuitionistic logic, conditional logics, and bunched logics. After…

Data-aware modal logics offer a powerful formalism for reasoning about semi-structured queries in languages such as DataGL, XPath, and GQL. In brief, these logics can be viewed as modal systems capable of expressing both reachability…

In this paper, we propose two-sorted modal logics for the representation and reasoning of concepts arising from rough set theory (RST) and formal concept analysis (FCA). These logics are interpreted in two-sorted bidirectional frames, which…

In computer science, various logical languages are defined to analyze properties of systems. One way to pinpoint the essential differences between those logics is to compare their expressivity in terms of distinguishing power and expressive…
