The McKinsey – Lemmon logic is barely canonical

نویسنده

چکیده

We study a canonical modal logic introduced by Lemmon, and axiomatised by an infinite sequence of axioms generalising McKinsey’s formula. We prove that the class of all frames for this logic is not closed under elementary equivalence, and so is non-elementary. We also show that any axiomatisation of the logic involves infinitely many non-canonical formulas. MSC2000: 03B45.

McKinsey Algebras and Topological Models of S4.1

The aim of this paper is to show that every topological space gives rise to a wealth of topological models of the modal logic S4.1. The construction of these models is based on the fact that every topological space defines a Boolean closure algebra (to be called a McKinsey algebra) that neatly reflects the structure of the modal system S4.1 in that all its elements satisfy the topological inter...

Axiomatizing hybrid logic using modal logic

We study hybrid logics with nominals and ‘actuality’ operators @i. We recall the method of ten Cate, Marx, and Viana to simulate hybrid logic using modalities and ‘nice’ frames, and we show that the hybrid logic of a class of frames is the modal logic of the class of its corresponding nice frames. Using these results, we show how to axiomatize the hybrid logic of any elementary class of frames....

F . N ESCO Graded Modalities , II

This work intends to be a generalization and a simplification oI me tecm~,~=~o employed in [2], by the proposal of a general strategy to prove satisfiability theorems for NLGM-s ( normal logics with graded modalities), analogously to the well known technique of the canonical models by Lemmon and Scott for classical modal logics.

Canonicity for Intensional Logics with Even Axioms

This paper looks at the concept of neighborhood canonicity introduced by BRIAN CHELLAS [2]. We follow the lead of the author’s paper [8] where it was shown that every non-iterative logic is neighborhood canonical and here we will show that all logics whose axioms have a simple syntactic form—no intensional operator is in boolean combination with a propositional letter—and which have the finite ...
