Axiomatizing the lexicographic products of modal logics with linear temporal logic

Given modal logics L1 and L2, their lexicographic product L1 x L2 is a new logic whose frames are the Cartesian products of an L1-frame and an L2-frame, but with the new accessibility relations reminiscent of a lexicographic ordering. This article considers the lexicographic products of several modal logics with linear temporal logic (LTL) based on ``next'' and ``always in the future''. We provide axiomatizations for logics of the form L x LTL and define cover-simple classes of frames; we then prove that, under fairly general conditions, our axiomatizations are sound and complete whenever the class of L-frames is cover-simple. Finally, we prove completeness for several concrete logics of the form L x LTL

Decidability and complexity via mosaics of the temporal logic of the lexicographic products of unbounded dense linear orders

Pseudo-contractions as Gentle Repairs

Updating a knowledge base to remove an unwanted consequence is a challenging task. Some of the original sentences must be either deleted or weakened in such a way that the sentence to be removed is no longer entailed by the resulting set. On the other hand, it is desirable that the existing knowledge be preserved as much as possible, minimising the loss of information. Several approaches to this problem can be found in the literature. In particular, when the knowledge is represented by an ontology, two different families of frameworks have been developed in the literature in the past decades with numerous ideas in common but with little interaction between the communities: applications of AGM-like Belief Change and justification-based Ontology Repair. In this paper, we investigate the relationship between pseudo-contraction operations and gentle repairs. Both aim to avoid the complete deletion of sentences when replacing them with weaker versions is enough to prevent the entailment of the unwanted formula. We show the correspondence between concepts on both sides and investigate under which conditions they are equivalent. Furthermore, we propose a unified notation for the two approaches, which might contribute to the integration of the two areas
