Temporal logics over finite traces have recently seen wide application in a number of areas, from business process modelling, monitoring, and mining to planning and decision making. However, real-life dynamic systems contain a degree of…

We consider (finitary, propositional) logics through the original use of Category Theory: the study of the "sociology of mathematical objects", aligning us with a recent, and growing, trend of study logics through its relations with other…

Craig's interpolation theorem (Craig 1957) is an important theorem known for propositional logic and first-order logic. It says that if a logical formula $\beta$ logically follows from a formula $\alpha$, then there is a formula $\gamma$,…

We provide a general and syntactically-defined family of sequent calculi, called \emph{semi-analytic}, to formalize the informal notion of a "nice" sequent calculus. We show that any sufficiently strong (multimodal) substructural logic with…

Interpolation is an important property of classical and many non classical logics that has been shown to have interesting applications in computer science and AI. Here we study the Interpolation Property for the propositional version of the…

We present a unified categorical treatment of completeness theorems for several classical and intuitionistic infinitary logics with a proposed axiomatization. This provides new completeness theorems and subsumes previous ones by G\"odel,…

We review the notion of (finitary) filter pair as a tool for creating and analyzing logics. A filter pair can be seen as a presentation of a logic, given by presenting its lattice of theories as the image of a lattice homomorphism, with…

There are exactly two maximal schematic extensions of the relevant logic R with the variable sharing property. We establish that one of them has a strong form of interpolation for deducibility, thereby giving an example of a well-known…

We show that the guarded-negation fragment is, in a precise sense, the smallest extension of the guarded fragment with Craig interpolation. In contrast, we show that full first-order logic is the smallest extension of both the two-variable…

We study interpolation properties for Shavrukov's bimodal logic $\mathbf{GR}$ of usual and Rosser provability predicates. For this purpose, we introduce a new sublogic $\mathbf{GR}^\circ$ of $\mathbf{GR}$ and its relational semantics. Based…

Recent research has established complexity results for the problem of deciding the existence of interpolants in logics lacking the Craig Interpolation Property (CIP). The proof techniques developed so far are non-constructive, and no…

We bring an abstract model theory perspective to interpolation. We ask, what is the role of interpolation in the study of extensions of first order logic, such as infinitary logics, generalized quantifiers and higher order logics? The…

While the computation of Craig interpolants for description logics (DLs) with the Craig Interpolation Property (CIP) is well understood, very little is known about the computation and size of interpolants for DLs without CIP or if one aims…

We propose a categorial grammar based on classical multiplicative linear logic. This can be seen as an extension of abstract categorial grammars (ACG) and is at least as expressive. However, constituents of {\it linear logic grammars (LLG)}…

This chapter provides a comprehensive overview of proof-theoretic methods for establishing interpolation properties across a range of logics, including classical, intuitionistic, modal, and substructural logics. Central to the discussion…

A logic has uniform interpolation if its formulas can be projected down to given subsignatures, preserving all logical consequences that do not mention the removed symbols; the weaker property of (Craig) interpolation allows the projected…

We start a systematic investigation of the size of Craig interpolants, uniform interpolants, and strongest implicates for (quasi-)normal modal logics. Our main upper bound states that for tabular modal logics, the computation of strongest…
