From Semantic Games to Provability: The Case of Gödel Logic
We present a semantic game for Gödel logic and its extensions, where the players’ interaction stepwise reduces arbitrary claims about the relative order of truth degrees of complex formulas to atomic ones. The paper builds on a previously developed game for Gödel logic with projection operator in Fermüller et al. (in: M.-J. Lesot, S. Vieira, M.Z. Reformat, J.P. Carvalho, A. Wilbik, B. Bouchon-Meunier, and R.R. Yager, (eds.), Information processing and management of uncertainty in knowledge-based systems, Springer, Cham, 2020, pp. 257–270). This game is extended to cover Gödel logic with involutive negations and constants, and then lifted to a provability game using the concept of disjunctive strategies. Winning strategies in the provability game, with and without constants and involutive negations, turn out to correspond to analytic proofs in a version of SeqGZL
(A. Ciabattoni, and T. Vetterlein, Fuzzy Sets and Systems 161(14):1941–1958, 2010) and in a sequent-of-relations calculus (M. Baaz, and Ch.G. Fermüller, in: N.V. Murray, (ed.), Automated reasoning with analytic tableaux and related methods, Springer, Berlin, 1999, pp. 36–51) respectively
Paraconsistency properties in degree-preserving fuzzy logics
Paraconsistent logics are specially tailored to deal with inconsistency, while fuzzy logics primarily deal with graded truth and vagueness. Aiming to find logics that can handle inconsistency and graded truth at once, in this paper we explore the notion of paraconsistent fuzzy logic. We show that degree-preserving fuzzy logics have paraconsistency features and study them as logics of formal inconsistency. We also consider their expansions with additional negation connectives and first-order formalisms and study their paraconsistency properties. Finally, we compare our approach to other paraconsistent logics in the literature. © 2014, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.All the authors have been partially supported by the FP7 PIRSES-GA-2009-247584 project MaToMUVI.

Sequent and Hypersequent Calculi for Abelian and Lukasiewicz Logics
We present two embeddings of infinite-valued Lukasiewicz logic L into Meyer
and Slaney's abelian logic A, the logic of lattice-ordered abelian groups. We
give new analytic proof systems for A and use the embeddings to derive
corresponding systems for L. These include: hypersequent calculi for A and L
and terminating versions of these calculi; labelled single sequent calculi for
A and L of complexity co-NP; unlabelled single sequent calculi for A and L.Comment: 35 pages, 1 figur
A modal theorem-preserving translation of a class of three-valued logics of incomplete information
International audienceThere are several three-valued logical systems that form a scattered landscape, even if all reasonable connectives in three-valued logics can be derived from a few of them. Most papers on this subject neglect the issue of the relevance of such logics in relation with the intended meaning of the third truth-value. Here, we focus on the case where the third truth-value means unknown, as suggested by Kleene. Under such an understanding, we show that any truth-qualified formula in a large range of three-valued logics can be translated into KD as a modal formula of depth 1, with modalities in front of literals only, while preserving all tautologies and inference rules of the original three-valued logic. This simple information logic is a two-tiered classical propositional logic with simple semantics in terms of epistemic states understood as subsets of classical interpretations. We study in particular the translations of Kleene, Gödel, ᴌukasiewicz and Nelson logics. We show that Priest’s logic of paradox, closely connected to Kleene’s, can also be translated into our modal setting, simply by exchanging the modalities possible and necessary. Our work enables the precise expressive power of three-valued logics to be laid bare for the purpose of uncertainty management
Negational Fragment of Intuitionistic Control Logic
We investigate properties of monadic purely negational fragment of
Intuitionistic Control Logic (ICL). This logic arises from Intuitionistic
Propositional Logic (IPL) by extending language of IPL by additional new
constant for falsum. Having two different falsum constants enables to define
two forms of negation. We analyse implicational relations between negational
monadic formulae and present a poset of non equivalent formulae of this
fragment of ICL.Comment: Draft, 22 page
Lewis meets Brouwer: constructive strict implication
C. I. Lewis invented modern modal logic as a theory of "strict implication".
Over the classical propositional calculus one can as well work with the unary
box connective. Intuitionistically, however, the strict implication has greater
expressive power than the box and allows to make distinctions invisible in the
ordinary syntax. In particular, the logic determined by the most popular
semantics of intuitionistic K becomes a proper extension of the minimal normal
logic of the binary connective. Even an extension of this minimal logic with
the "strength" axiom, classically near-trivial, preserves the distinction
between the binary and the unary setting. In fact, this distinction and the
strong constructive strict implication itself has been also discovered by the
functional programming community in their study of "arrows" as contrasted with
"idioms". Our particular focus is on arithmetical interpretations of the
intuitionistic strict implication in terms of preservativity in extensions of
Heyting's Arithmetic.Comment: Our invited contribution to the collection "L.E.J. Brouwer, 50 years
