In [1] the authors considered finitely-valued modal logics with Kripke style semantics where both propositions and the accessibility relation are valued over a finite residuated lattice. Unfortunately, the necessity operator does not satisfy in general the normality axiom (K). In this paper we focus on the case of finite chains, and we consider a different approach based on introducing a multim...

We discuss a formal many-valued logic called EQlogic which is based on a recently introduced special class of algebras called EQ-algebras. The latter have three basic binary operations (meet, multiplication, fuzzy equality) and a top element and, in a certain sense, generalize residuated lattices. The goal of EQ-logics is to present a possible direction in the development of mathematical logics...

In this paper, we define a kind of lattice-valued convergence spaces based on the notion of $top$-filters, namely $top$-convergence spaces, and show the category of $top$-convergence spaces is Cartesian-closed. Further, in the lattice valued context of a complete $MV$-algebra, a close relation between the category of$top$-convergence spaces and that of strong $L$-topological spaces is establish...

This paper describes a semantic connection between the symbolic trajectory evaluation model-checking algorithm and relational verification in higher-order logic. We prove a theorem that translates correctness results from trajectory evaluation over a four-valued lattice into a shallow embedding of temporal operators over Boolean streams. This translation connects the specialized world of trajec...

We propose assertion-consistency (AC) semi-lattices as suitable orders for the analysis of partial models. Such orders express semantic entailment, multiple-viewpoint and multiple-valued analysis, maintain internal consistency of reasoning, and subsume finite De Morgan lattices. We classify those orders that are finite and distributive and apply them to design an efficient algorithm for multipl...

By interpreting ‘p is impossible’ by ‘p is selfcontradictory’, and ‘p is always’ by ‘not p is self-contradictory’, this paper studies which of the three-valued systems of Łucasiewicz, Gödel, Kleene, Bochvar, and Post, do verify the Aristotle’s principles of Non-Contradiction (NC), and Excluded-Middle (EM). Keywords— Systems of three-valued logic, Non-Contradiction, Excluded-Middle.

In this paper, we define the almost uniform convergence and the almost everywhere convergence for cone-valued functions with respect to an operator valued measure. We prove the Egoroff theorem for Pvalued functions and operator valued measure θ : R → L(P, Q), where R is a σ-ring of subsets of X≠ ∅, (P, V) is a quasi-full locally convex cone and (Q, W) is a locally ...

This paper presents an experiment with human subjects concerning the vague spatial relation ‘near’ in environmental space. After the topic is introduced and relevant previous work surveyed, the experiment is described. Three approaches to experimental analysis are presented and discussed: nearness neighbourhoods as regions with broad boundaries, fuzzy nearness and distance measures, and four-va...

A many-valued modal logic is introduced that combines the usual Kripke frame semantics of the modal logic K with connectives interpreted locally at worlds by lattice and group operations over the real numbers. A labelled tableau system is provided and a coNEXPTIME upper bound obtained for checking validity in the logic. Focussing on the modal-multiplicative fragment, the labelled tableau system...

We introduce a class of algebras, called twist-structures, whose members are built as special squares of an arbitrary residuated lattice. We show how our construction relates to and encompasses results obtained by several authors on the algebraic semantics of non-classical logics. We define a logic that corresponds to our twist-structures and show how to expand it with modal operators, obtainin...
