A recovery operator for non-transitive approaches

In some recent articles, Cobreros, Egré, Ripley, & van Rooij have defended the idea that abandoning transitivity may lead to a solution to the trouble caused by semantic paradoxes. For that purpose, they develop the Strict-Tolerant approach, which leads them to entertain a nontransitive theory of truth, where the structural rule of Cut is not generally valid. However, that Cut fails in general in the target theory of truth does not mean that there are not certain safe instances of Cut involving semantic notions. In this article we intend to meet the challenge of answering how to regain all the safe instances of Cut, in the language of the theory, making essential use of a unary recovery operator. To fulfill this goal, we will work within the so-called Goodship Project, which suggests that in order to have nontrivial naïve theories it is sufficient to formulate the corresponding self-referential sentences with suitable biconditionals. Nevertheless, a secondary aim of this article is to propose a novel way to carry this project out, showing that the biconditionals in question can be totally classical. In the context of this article, these biconditionals will be essentially used in expressing the self-referential sentences and, thus, as a collateral result of our work we will prove that none of the recoveries expected of the target theory can be nontrivially achieved if self-reference is expressed through identities.Fil: Barrio, Eduardo Alejandro.

About the coexistence of “classical sets” with “non-classical” ones: A survey

This is a survey of some possible extensions of ZF to a larger universe, closer to the “naive set theory” (the universes discussed here concern, roughly speaking : stratified sets, partial sets, positive sets, paradoxical sets and double sets)

A SIMPLE SEQUENT SYSTEM FOR MINIMALLY INCONSISTENT LP

Minimally inconsistent LP (MiLP) is a nonmonotonic paraconsistent logic based on Graham Priest’s logic of paradox (LP). Unlike LP, MiLP purports to recover, in consistent situations, all of classical reasoning. The present paper conducts a proof-theoretic analysis of MiLP. I highlight certain properties of this logic, introduce a simple sequent system for it, and establish soundness and completeness results. In addition, I show how to use my proof system in response to a criticism of this logic put forward by J. C. Beall

On some classes of formulas in S5 which are pre-complete relative to existential expressibility

Existential expressibility for all $k$-valued functions was proposed by A.~V. Kuz\-ne\-tsov and later was investigated in more details by S.~S.~Mar\-chen\-kov. In the present paper, we consider existential expressibility in the case of formulas defined by a logical calculus and find out some conditions for a system of formulas to be closed relative to existential expressibility. As a consequence, it has been established some pre-complete as to existential expressibility classes of formulas in some finite extensions of the paraconsistent modal logic $S5$
