We prove completeness, interpolation and omitting types for certain predicate topological logics that properly extend the first order case. We aslo count the non isomorphic topological models of a countable theory

Strict-Tolerant Logic (ST) underpins naive theories of truth and vagueness (respectively including a fully disquotational truth predicate and an unrestricted tolerance principle) without jettisoning any classically valid laws. The classical…

The preferential conditional logic PCL, introduced by Burgess, and its extensions are studied. First, a natural semantics based on neighbourhood models, which generalise Lewis' sphere models for counterfactual logics, is proposed. Soundness…

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…

We have recently presented a general method of proving the fundamental logical properties of Craig and Lyndon Interpolation (IPs) by induction on derivations in a wide class of internal sequent calculi, including sequents, hypersequents,…

In this chapter we give a basic overview of known results regarding Craig interpolation for first-order logic as well as for fragments of first-order logic. Our aim is to provide an entry point into the literature on interpolation theorems…

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…

This paper presents the first in a series of results that allow us to develop a theory providing finer control over the complexity of normalisation, and in particular of cut elimination. By considering atoms as self-dual non-commutative…

A cyclic proof system allows us to perform inductive reasoning without explicit inductions. We propose a cyclic proof system for HFLN, which is a higher-order predicate logic with natural numbers and alternating fixed-points. Ours is the…

In this work we explore the connections between (linear) nested sequent calculi and ordinary sequent calculi for normal and non-normal modal logics. By proposing local versions to ordinary sequent rules we obtain linear nested sequent…

This paper is a study of first-order coherent logic from the point of view of duality and categorical logic. We prove a duality theorem between coherent hyperdoctrines and open polyadic Priestley spaces, which we subsequently apply to prove…

Craig's Interpolation theorem has a wide range of applications, from mathematical logic to computer science. Proof-theoretic techniques for establishing interpolation usually follow a method first introduced by Maehara for the Sequent…

We study the Lyndon interpolation property (LIP) and the uniform Lyndon interpolation property (ULIP) for extensions of $\mathbf{S4}$ and intermediate propositional logics. We prove that among the 18 consistent normal modal logics of finite…

The uniform interpolation property in a given logic can be understood as the definability of propositional quantifiers. We mechanise the computation of these quantifiers and prove correctness in the Coq proof assistant for three modal…

We prove a generalization of Maehara's lemma to show that the extensions of classical and intuitionistic first-order logic with a special type of geometric axioms, called singular geometric axioms, have Craig's interpolation property. As a…

We establish the Lyndon interpolation property for basic lattice expansion logics (LE-logics) in arbitrary signatures using display calculi. Our approach is constructive, yielding interpolants algorithmically from derivations, and modular,…

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…

In \cite{Craig}, we introduced a syntactically defined and highly general class of calculi known as \emph{semi-analytic}. We then demonstrated that any sufficiently strong (modal) substructural logic with a semi-analytic calculus must…

Bi-intuitionistic logic is the conservative extension of intuitionistic logic with a connective dual to implication. It is sometimes presented as a symmetric constructive subsystem of classical logic. In this paper, we compare three sequent…

A modular proof-theoretic framework was recently developed to prove Craig interpolation for normal modal logics based on generalizations of sequent calculi (e.g., nested sequents, hypersequents, and labelled sequents). In this paper, we…
