Automatic proof search in logic of justified common knowledge
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider the logic of justified common knowledge S4n introduced in [Artemov, 2004]. This system captures the notion of justified common knowledge, which is free of some of the deficiencies of the usual common knowledge operator, and yet sufficient for analysis of epistemic problems where common knowledge has been traditionally applied. In particular, S4n enjoys cut-elimination, which opens a possibility for an automatic proof search in logic of common knowledge. In this paper, we present an implementation that automatically builds cut-free proofs in S4n. Our work is based on the existing matrix-based prover for intuitionistic logic [Schmitt et al., 2001].

متن کاملA Cut-free Tableau Calculus for the Logic of Common Knowledge
In this paper we focus on the development of a cut-free finitary tableau calculus with histories for n-agent modal logics with common knowledge (LCK). Thus, we get a proof system where proof-search becomes feasible and we lay the basis for developing a uniform framework for the treatment of the family of logics of common knowledge. Unlike proof calculi based on temporal logics, our calculus giv...
متن کاملJustified Knowledge is Sufficient
Three formal approaches to public knowledge are “any fool” knowledge by McCarthy (1970), Common Knowledge by Halpern and Moses (1990), and Justified Knowledge by Artemov (2004). We compare them to mathematically address the observation that the light-weight systems of Justified Knowledge and ‘any fool knows’ suffice to solve standard epistemic puzzles for which heavier solutions based on Common...
