    Frobenius Structures in Star-Autonomous Categories

    Get PDF
    It is known that the quantale of sup-preserving maps from a complete lattice to itself is a Frobenius quantale if and only if the lattice is completely distributive. Since completely distributive lattices are the nuclear objects in the autonomous category of complete lattices and sup-preserving maps, we study the above statement in a categorical setting. We introduce the notion of Frobenius structure in an arbitrary autonomous category, generalizing that of Frobenius quantale. We prove that the monoid of endomorphisms of a nuclear object has a Frobenius structure. If the environment category is star-autonomous and has epi-mono factorizations, a variant of this theorem allows to develop an abstract phase semantics and to generalise the previous statement. Conversely, we argue that, in a star-autonomous category where the monoidal unit is a dualizing object, if the monoid of endomorphisms of an object has a Frobenius structure and the monoidal unit embeds into this object as a retract, then the object is nuclear

    Locally Integral Involutive PO-Semigroups

    We show that every locally integral involutive partially ordered semigroup (ipo-semigroup) A=(A,,,,)\mathbf A = (A,\le, \cdot, \sim,-), and in particular every locally integral involutive semiring, decomposes in a unique way into a family {Ap:pA+}\{\mathbf A_p : p\in A^+\} of integral ipo-monoids, which we call its integral components. In the semiring case, the integral components are unital semirings. Moreover, we show that there is a family of monoid homomorphisms Φ={φpqApAq:pq}\Phi = \{\varphi_{pq}\: \mathbf A_p\to \mathbf A_q : p\le q\}, indexed over the positive cone (A+,)(A^+,\le), so that the structure of A\mathbf A can be recovered as a glueing ΦAp\int_\Phi \mathbf A_p of its integral components along Φ\Phi. Reciprocally, we give necessary and sufficient conditions so that the P{\l}onka sum of any family of integral ipo-monoids {Ap:pD}\{\mathbf A_p : p\in D\}, indexed over a join-semilattice (D,)(D,\lor) along a family of monoid homomorphisms Φ\Phi is an ipo-semigroup

    Interpolation in Linear Logic and Related Systems

    Full text link
    We prove that there are continuum-many axiomatic extensions of the full Lambek calculus with exchange that have the deductive interpolation property. Further, we extend this result to both classical and intuitionistic linear logic as well as their multiplicative-additive fragments. None of the logics we exhibit have the Craig interpolation property, but we show that they all enjoy a guarded form of Craig interpolation. We also exhibit continuum-many axiomatic extensions of each of these logics without the deductive interpolation property

    Structural and universal completeness in algebra and logic

    Full text link
    In this work we study the notions of structural and universal completeness both from the algebraic and logical point of view. In particular, we provide new algebraic characterizations of quasivarieties that are actively and passively universally complete, and passively structurally complete. We apply these general results to varieties of bounded lattices and to quasivarieties related to substructural logics. In particular we show that a substructural logic satisfying weakening is passively structurally complete if and only if every classical contradiction is explosive in it. Moreover, we fully characterize the passively structurally complete varieties of MTL-algebras, i.e., bounded commutative integral residuated lattices generated by chains.Comment: This is a preprin

    Propositional Logics for the Lawvere Quantale

    Full text link
    Lawvere showed that generalised metric spaces are categories enriched over [0,][0, \infty], the quantale of the positive extended reals. The statement of enrichment is a quantitative analogue of being a preorder. Towards seeking a logic for quantitative metric reasoning, we investigate three [0,][0,\infty]-valued propositional logics over the Lawvere quantale. The basic logical connectives shared by all three logics are those that can be interpreted in any quantale, viz finite conjunctions and disjunctions, tensor (addition for the Lawvere quantale) and linear implication (here a truncated subtraction); to these we add, in turn, the constant 11 to express integer values, and scalar multiplication by a non-negative real to express general affine combinations. Quantitative equational logic can be interpreted in the third logic if we allow inference systems instead of axiomatic systems. For each of these logics we develop a natural deduction system which we prove to be decidably complete w.r.t. the quantale-valued semantics. The heart of the completeness proof makes use of the Motzkin transposition theorem. Consistency is also decidable; the proof makes use of Fourier-Motzkin elimination of linear inequalities. Strong completeness does not hold in general, even (as is known) for theories over finitely-many propositional variables; indeed even an approximate form of strong completeness in the sense of Pavelka or Ben Yaacov -- provability up to arbitrary precision -- does not hold. However, we can show it for theories axiomatized by a (not necessarily finite) set of judgements in normal form over a finite set of propositional variables when we restrict to models that do not map variables to \infty; the proof uses Hurwicz's general form of the Farkas' Lemma

    The Complexity of Fuzzy Description Logics over Finite Lattices with Nominals

    Get PDF
    The complexity of reasoning in fuzzy description logics (DLs) over finite lattices usually does not exceed that of the underlying classical DLs. This has recently been shown for the logics between L-IALC and L-ISCHI using a combination of automata- and tableau-based techniques. In this report, this approach is modified to deal with nominals and constants in L-ISCHOI. Reasoning w.r.t. general TBoxes is ExpTime-complete, and PSpace-completeness is shown under the restriction to acyclic terminologies in two sublogics. The latter implies two previously unknown complexity results for the classical DLs ALCHO and SO

    Bisimulations for Kripke models of Fuzzy Multimodal Logics

    Get PDF
    The main objective of the dissertation is to provide a detailed study of several different types of simulations and bisimulations for Kripke models of fuzzy multimodal logics. Two types of simulations (forward and backward) and five types of bisimulations (forward, backward, forward-backward, backward-forward and regular) are presented hereby. For each type of simulation and bisimulation, an algorithm is created to test the existence of the simulation or bisimulation and, if it exists, the algorithm computes the greatest one. The dissertation presents the application of bisimulations in the state reduction of fuzzy Kripke models, while preserving their semantic properties. Next, weak simulations and bisimulations were considered and the Hennessy-Milner property was examined. Finally, an algorithm was created to compute weak simulations and bisimulations for fuzzy Kripke models over locally finite algebras
