A Double Team Semantics for Generalized Quantifiers
نویسنده
چکیده
We investigate extensions of dependence logic with generalized quantifiers. We also introduce and investigate the notion of a generalized atom. We define a system of semantics that can accommodate variants of dependence logic, possibly extended with generalized quantifiers and generalized atoms, under the same umbrella framework. The semantics is based on pairs of teams, or double teams. We also devise a game-theoretic semantics equivalent to the double team semantics. We make use of the double team semantics by defining a logic [Formula: see text] which canonically fuses together two-variable dependence logic[Formula: see text] and two-variable logic with counting quantifiers[Formula: see text]. We establish that the satisfiability and finite satisfiability problems of [Formula: see text] are complete for [Formula: see text].

Two New Definitions of Stable Models of Logic Programs with Generalized Quantifiers
We present alternative definitions of the first-order stable model semantics and its extension to incorporate generalized quantifiers by referring to the familiar notion of a reduct instead of referring to the SM operator in the original definitions. Also, we extend the FLP stable model semantics to allow generalized quantifiers by referring to an operator that is similar to the SM operator. Fo...
متن کاملStable Models of Formulas with Generalized Quantifiers (Preliminary Report)
Applications of answer set programming motivated various extensions of the stable model semantics, for instance, to allow aggregates or to facilitate interface with external ontology descriptions. We present a uniform, reductive view on these extensions by viewing them as special cases of formulas with generalized quantifiers. This is done by extending the first-order stable model semantics by ...
متن کاملComputational semantics for monadic quantifiers
The paper gives a survey of known results related to computational devices (finite and push–down automata) recognizing monadic generalized quantifiers in finite models. Some of these results are simple reinterpretations of descriptive—feasible correspondence theorems from finite–model theory. Additionally a new result characterizing monadic quantifiers recognized by push down automata is proven...
متن کاملTeam building in dependence
Hintikka and Sandu’s Independence-Friendly Logic was introduced as a logic for partially ordered quantification, in which the independence of (existential) quantifiers from previous (universal) quantifiers is written by explicit syntax. It was originally given a semantics by games of imperfect information; Hodges then gave a (necessarily) second-order Tarskian semantics. More recently, Väänänen...
متن کاملCounting in Team Semantics
We explore several counting constructs for logics with team semantics. Counting is an important task in numerous applications, but with a somewhat delicate relationship to logic. Team semantics on the other side is the mathematical basis of modern logics of dependence and independence, in which formulae are evaluated not for a single assignment of values to variables, but for a set of such assi...
