Intuitionistic double negation as a necessity operator.
We introduce various kinds of fixed-point properties for modal logics, and we classify the most prominent systems according to these. Our goal is to do a first step towards a complete characterization of provability logics of (possibly non standard) derivability predicates for Peano Arithmetic.
In this paper we present logics about stable and unstable versions of several well-known relations from mereology: part-of, overlap and underlap. An intuitive semantics is given for the stable and unstable relations, describing them as dynamic counterparts of the base mereological relations. Stable relations are described as ones that always hold, while unstable relations hold sometimes. A set of first-order sentences is provided to serve as axioms for the stable and unstable relations, and representation...
This paper gives a semantical underpinning for a many-sorted modal logic associated with certain dynamical systems, like transition systems, automata or classes in object-oriented languages. These systems will be described as coalgebras of so-called polynomial functors, built up from constants and identities, using products, coproducts and powersets. The semantical account involves Boolean algebras with operators indexed by polynomial functors, called MBAOs, for Many-sorted Boolean Algebras with...
