Completeness and Decidability Results for Some Propositional Modal Logics Containing “Actually” Operators

摘要

The addition of “actually” operators to modal languages allows us to capture important inferential behaviours which cannot be adequately captured in logics formulated in simpler languages. Previous work on modal logics containing “actually” operators has concentrated entirely upon extensions of KT5 and has employed a particular model-theoretic treatment of them. This paper proves completeness and decidability results for a range of normal and nonnormal but quasi-normal propositional modal logics containing “actually” operators, the weakest of which are conservative extensions of K, using a novel generalisation of the standard semantics.
