    Completeness and cut-elimination theorems for trilattice logics
    with Norihiro Kamide
    Annals of Pure and Applied Logic 162 (10): 816-835. 2011.
    A sequent calculus for Odintsov’s Hilbert-style axiomatization of a logic related to the trilattice SIXTEEN3 of generalized truth values is introduced. The completeness theorem w.r.t. a simple semantics for is proved using Maehara’s decomposition method that simultaneously derives the cut-elimination theorem for . A first-order extension of and its semantics are also introduced. The completeness and cut-elimination theorems for are proved using Schütte’s method.

    A rule-extension of the non-associative Lambek calculus
    Studia Logica 71 (3): 443-451. 2002.
    An extension L + of the non-associative Lambek calculus Lis defined. In L + the restriction to formula-conclusion sequents is given up, and additional left introduction rules for the directional implications are introduced. The system L + is sound and complete with respect to a modification of the ternary frame semantics for L.

    Nested deontic modalities: Another view of parking on highways (review)
    Erkenntnis 49 (2): 185-199. 1998.
    A suggestion is made for representing iterated deontic modalities in stit theory, the “seeing-to-it-that” theory of agency. The formalization is such that normative sentences are represented as agentive sentences and therefore have history dependent truth conditions. In contrast to investigations in alethic modal logic, in the construction of systems of deontic logic little attention has been paid to the iteration... of the deontic modalities.

    An Axiomatic System and a Tableau Calculus for STIT Imagination Logic
    with Grigory K. Olkhovikov
    Journal of Philosophical Logic 47 (2): 259-279. 2018.
    We formulate a Hilbert-style axiomatic system and a tableau calculus for the STIT-based logic of imagination recently proposed in Wansing. Completeness of the axiom system is shown by the method of canonical models; completeness of the tableau system is also shown by using standard methods.

    Advances in Modal Logic, Volume 2 (edited book)
    with Michael Zakharyaschev, Krister Segerberg, and Maarten de Rijke
    Center for the Study of Language and Inf. 2001.
    Modal Logic, originally conceived as the logic of necessity and possibility, has developed into a powerful mathematical and computational discipline. It is the main source of formal languages aimed at analyzing complex notions such as common knowledge and formal provability. Modal and modal-like languages also provide us with families of restricted description languages for relational and topological structures; they are being used in many disciplines, ranging from artificial intelligence, compu…Read more
    Modal Logic, originally conceived as the logic of necessity and possibility, has developed into a powerful mathematical and computational discipline. It is the main source of formal languages aimed at analyzing complex notions such as common knowledge and formal provability. Modal and modal-like languages also provide us with families of restricted description languages for relational and topological structures; they are being used in many disciplines, ranging from artificial intelligence, computer science and mathematics via natural language syntax and semantics to philosophy. This volume presents a broad and up-to-date view of the field, with contributions covering both the foundations of modal logic itself and each of the aforementioned application areas. Complemented with an editorial introduction covering the roots of modal logic, this book is indispensable for any advanced student and researcher in non-classical logic and its applications.

    Diamonds are a philosopher's best friends
    Journal of Philosophical Logic 31 (6): 591-612. 2002.
    The knowability paradox is an instance of a remarkable reasoning pattern (actually, a pair of such patterns), in the course of which an occurrence of the possibility operator, the diamond, disappears. In the present paper, it is pointed out how the unwanted disappearance of the diamond may be escaped. The emphasis is not laid on a discussion of the contentious premise of the knowability paradox, namely that all truths are possibly known, but on how from this assumption the conclusion is derived …Read more
    The knowability paradox is an instance of a remarkable reasoning pattern (actually, a pair of such patterns), in the course of which an occurrence of the possibility operator, the diamond, disappears. In the present paper, it is pointed out how the unwanted disappearance of the diamond may be escaped. The emphasis is not laid on a discussion of the contentious premise of the knowability paradox, namely that all truths are possibly known, but on how from this assumption the conclusion is derived that all truths are, in fact, known. Nevertheless, the solution offered is in the spirit of the constructivist attitude usually maintained by defenders of the anti-realist premise. In order to avoid the paradoxical reasoning, a paraconsistent constructive relevant modal epistemic logic with strong negation is defined semantically. The system is axiomatized and shown to be complete
