Tableaux for Public Announcement Logic

A Tableau Method for Public Announcement Logics

Public announcement logic is an extension of multi-agent epistemic logic with dynamic operators to model the informational consequences of announcements to the entire group of agents. We propose a labelled tableau-calculus for this logic. We also present an extension of the calculus for a logic of arbitrary announcements.

KE Tableaux for Public Announcement Logic

Public announcement logic (PAL) is a simple dynamic epistemic logic extending reasoning about knowledge of agents with a modal operator for simultaneous and transparent knowledge updates. This logic is no more expressive than epistemic logic (EL) without updates, but exhibits compact representation of a number of complex epistemic situations. A labeled tableau proof system to reason with these ...

Public announcement logic is an extension of multi-agent epistemic logic with dynamic operators to model the informational consequences of announcements to the entire group of agents. We propose an extension of public announcement logic with a dynamic modal operator that expresses what is true after arbitrary announcements. Intuitively, [!]φ expresses that φ is true after an arbitrary announcem...

On the Complexity of Dynamic Epistemic Logic

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 know that for public announcement logic, a fragment of DEL, the satisfiability problem and the model-checking problem are respectively PSPACE-complete and in P....
