    Selecting the Class of All 3-Valued Implicative Expansions of Kleene's Strong Logic Containing Routley and Meyer's Logic B

    Get PDF
    We define all implicative expansions of Kleene's strong 3-valued matrix (with both only one and two designated values) verifying Routley and Meyer's basic logic B. Then, the logics determined by each one of these implicative expansions are axiomatized by using a Belnap-Dunn "two-valued" semantics. This semantics is "overdetermined" in the case of two designated values, and "underdetermined" when there is only one.SIMinisterio de Economía, Industria y Competitivida

    The Class of All Natural Implicative Expansions of Kleene’s Strong Logic Functionally Equivalent to Łukasiewicz’s 3-Valued Logic Ł3

    Get PDF
    25 p.We consider the logics determined by the set of all natural implicative expansions of Kleene’s strong 3-valued matrix (with both only one and two designated values) and select the class of all logics functionally equivalent to Łukasiewicz’s 3-valued logic Ł3. The concept of a “natural implicative matrix” is based upon the notion of a “natural conditional” defined in Tomova (Rep Math Log 47:173–182, 2012).S

    There is a productive and suggestive approach in philosophical logic based on the idea of generalized truth values. This idea, which stems essentially from the pioneering works by J.M. Dunn, N. Belnap, and which has recently been developed further by Y. Shramko and H. Wansing, is closely connected to the power-setting formation on the base of some initial truth values. Having a set of generalized truth values, one can introduce fundamental logical notions, more specifically, the ones of logical operations and logical entailment. This can be done in two different ways. According to the first one, advanced by M. Dunn, N. Belnap, Y. Shramko and H. Wansing, one defines on the given set of generalized truth values a specific ordering relation (or even several such relations) called the logical order(s), and then interprets logical connectives as well as the entailment relation(s) via this ordering(s). In particular, the negation connective is determined then by the inversion of the logical order. But there is also another method grounded on the notion of a quasi-field of sets, considered by Białynicki-Birula and Rasiowa. The key point of this approach consists in defining an operation of quasi-complement via the very specific function g and then interpreting entailment just through the relation of set-inclusion between generalized truth values.In this paper, we will give a constructive proof of the claim that, for any finite set V with cardinality greater or equal 2, there exists a representation of a quasi-field of sets <P(V ), ∪, ∩, −> isomorphic to de Morgan lattice. In particular, it means that we offer a special procedure, which allows to make our negation de Morgan and our logic relevant

    A simple Henkin-style completeness proof for Gödel 3-valued logic G3

    Get PDF
    A simple Henkin-style completeness proof for Gödel 3-valued propositional logic G3 is provided. The idea is to endow G3 with an under-determined semantics (u-semantics) of the type defined by Dunn. The key concept in u-semantics is that of “under-determined interpretation” (u-interpretation). It is shown that consistent prime theories built upon G3 can be understood as (canonical) u-interpretations. In order to prove this fact we follow Brady by defining G3 as an extension of Anderson and Belnap’s positive fragment of First Degree Entailment Logic

    Belnap-Dunn semantics for natural implicative expansions of Kleene's strong three-valued matrix II. Only one designated value

    Get PDF
    21 p.This paper is a sequel to ‘Belnap-Dunn semantics for natural implicative expansions of Kleene's strong three-valued matrix with two designated values’, where a ‘bivalent’ Belnap-Dunn semantics is provided for all the expansions referred to in its title. The aim of the present paper is to carry out a parallel investigation for all natural implicative expansions of Kleene's strong 3-valued matrix now with only one designated value.S

    Pure Variable Inclusion Logics

    Get PDF
    The aim of this article is to discuss pure variable inclusion logics, that is, logical systems where valid entailments require that the propositional variables occurring in the conclusion are included among those appearing in the premises, or vice versa. We study the subsystems of Classical Logic satisfying these requirements and assess the extent to which it is possible to characterise them by means of a single logical matrix. In addition, we semantically describe both of these companions to Classical Logic in terms of appropriate matrix bundles and as semilattice-based logics, showing that the notion of consequence in these logics can be interpreted in terms of truth (or non-falsity) and meaningfulness (or meaninglessness) preservation. Finally, we use Płonka sums of matrices to investigate the pure variable inclusion companions of an arbitrary finitary logic.Fil: Paoli, Francesco.
