By using a selective filtration argument, we prove that the satisfiability problem of the unimodal logic of density is in $EXPTIME$. By using a tableau-like approach, we prove that the satisfiability problem of the bimodal logic of weak…

We introduce the family of multi-modal logics of bounded density and with a tableau-like approach using finite \emph{windows} which were introduced in \cite{BalGasq25} and that we generalize to recursive windows. We prove that their…

For lack of general algorithmic methods that apply to wide classes of logics, establishing a complexity bound for a given modal logic is often a laborious task. The present work is a step towards a general theory of the complexity of modal…

We analyze the computational complexity of admissibility and unifiability with parameters in transitive modal logics. The class of cluster-extensible (clx) logics was introduced in the first part of this series of papers. We completely…

The methods used to establish PSPACE-bounds for modal logics can roughly be grouped into two classes: syntax driven methods establish that exhaustive proof search can be performed in polynomial space whereas semantic approaches directly…

Graded modal logic is the formal language obtained from ordinary (propositional) modal logic by endowing its modal operators with cardinality constraints. Under the familiar possible-worlds semantics, these augmented modal operators receive…

Probabilistic justification logic is a modal logic with two kind of modalities: probability measures and explicit justification terms. We present a tableau procedure that can be used to decide the satisfiability problem for this logic in…

We investigate the parameterized computational complexity of the satisfiability problem for modal logic and attempt to pinpoint relevant structural parameters which cause the problem's combinatorial explosion, beyond the number of…

Modal logics are widely used in computer science. The complexity of modal satisfiability problems has been investigated since the 1970s, usually proving results on a case-by-case basis. We prove a very general classification for a wide…

Dynamic Complexity studies the maintainability of queries with logical formulas in a setting where the underlying structure or database changes over time. Most often, these formulas are from first-order logic, giving rise to the dynamic…

Windows have been introduce in \cite{BalGasq25} as a tool for designing polynomial algorithms to check satisfiability of a bimodal logic of weak-density. In this paper, after revisiting the ``folklore'' case of bimodal $\K4$ already treated…

In \cite{Lyon24} the question of the decidability of quasi-dense modal logics is answered, and an upper bound in $\EXPSPACE$ is given. Unfortunately, authors' intricate proof seems to contain a major flaw that cannot be fixed, leaving the…

Although Dynamic Epistemic Logic (DEL) is an influential logical framework for representing and reasoning about information change, little is known about the computational complexity of its associated decision problems. In fact, we only…

We investigate the computational complexity of the satisfiability problem of modal inclusion logic. We distinguish two variants of the problem: one for the strict and another one for the lax semantics. Both problems turn out to be…

Motivated by description logics, we investigate what happens to the complexity of modal satisfiability problems if we only allow formulas built from literals, $\wedge$, $\Diamond$, and $\Box$. Previously, the only known result was that the…

Modal logics are widely used in multi-agent systems to reason about actions, abilities, norms, or epistemic states. Combined with description logic languages, they are also a powerful tool to formalise modal aspects of ontology-based…

We study the computational complexity of model checking and satisfiability problems of polyadic modal logics extended with permutations and Boolean operators on accessibility relations. First, we show that the combined complexity of the…

Modal probabilistic logics provide a framework for reasoning about probability in modal contexts, involving notions such as knowledge, belief, time, and action. In this paper, we study a particular family of these logics, extending the…

It is known that many modal and superintuitionistic logics are PSPACE-hard in languages with a small number of variables; however, questions about the complexity of similar fragments of many logics obtained by adding various axioms to…

We argue that parameterized complexity is a useful tool with which to study global constraints. In particular, we show that many global constraints which are intractable to propagate completely have natural parameters which make them…
