64A discrete duality between apartness algebras and apartness framesJournal of Applied Non-Classical Logics 18 (2-3): 213-227. 2008.Apartness spaces were introduced as a constructive counterpart to proximity spaces which, in turn, aimed to model the concept of nearness of sets in a metric or topological environment. In this paper we introduce apartness algebras and apartness frames intended to be abstract counterparts to the apartness spaces of (Bridges et al., 2003), and we prove a discrete duality for them.

50Relational dual tableaux for interval temporal logicsJournal of Applied Non-Classical Logics 16 (3-4). 2006.Interval temporal logics provide both an insight into a nature of time and a framework for temporal reasoning in various areas of computer science. In this paper we present sound and complete relational proof systems in the style of dual tableaux for relational logics associated with modal logics of temporal intervals and we prove that the systems enable us to verify validity and entailment of these temporal logics. We show how to incorporate in the systems various relations between intervals an…Read more

50Relational proof system for relevant logicsJournal of Symbolic Logic 57 (4): 1425-1440. 1992.A method is presented for constructing natural deduction-style systems for propositional relevant logics. The method consists in first translating formulas of relevant logics into ternary relations, and then defining deduction rules for a corresponding logic of ternary relations. Proof systems of that form are given for various relevant logics. A class of algebras of ternary relations is introduced that provides a relation-algebraic semantics for relevant logics

47Dual Tableaux: Foundations, Methodology, Case StudiesSpringer. 2011.The book presents logical foundations of dual tableaux together with a number of their applications both to logics traditionally dealt with in mathematics and philosophy (such as modal, intuitionistic, relevant, and many-valued logics) and to various applied theories of computational logic (such as temporal reasoning, spatial reasoning, fuzzy-set-based reasoning, rough-set-based reasoning, order-of magnitude reasoning, reasoning about programs, threshold logics, logics of conditional decisions).…Read more

45Logic For Reasoning About KnowledgeZeitschrift fur mathematische Logik und Grundlagen der Mathematik 35 (6): 559-572. 1989.One of the important issues in research on knowledge based computer systems is development of methods for reasoning about knowledge. In the present paper semantics for knowledge operators is introduced. The underlying logic is developed with epistemic operators relative to indiscernibility. Facts about knowledge expressible in the logic are discussed, in particular common knowledge and joint knowledge of n group of agents. Some paradoxes of epistemic logic are shown to be eliminated in the given…Read more

38Equational Reasoning in Non-Classical LogicsJournal of Applied Non-Classical Logics 8 (1-2): 27-66. 1998.ABSTRACT In this paper it is shown that a broad class of propositional logics can be interpreted in an equational logic based on fork algebras. This interpetability enables us to develop a fork-algebraic formalization of these logics and, as a consequence, to simulate non-classical means of reasoning with equational theories algebras

29A hierarchy of modal logics with relative accessibility relationsJournal of Applied Non-Classical Logics 9 (2-3): 303-328. 1999.ABSTRACT In this paper we introduce and investigate various classes of multimodal logics based on frames with relative accessibility relations. We discuss their applicability to representation and analysis of incomplete information. We provide axiom systems for these logics and we prove their completeness

29Duality via Truth: Semantic frameworks for lattice-based logicsLogic Journal of the IGPL 13 (4): 467-490. 2005.A method of defining semantics of logics based on not necessarily distributive lattices is presented. The key elements of the method are representation theorems for lattices and duality between classes of lattices and classes of some relational systems . We suggest a type of duality referred to as a duality via truth which leads to Kripke-style semantics and three-valued semantics in the style of Allwein-Dunn. We develop two new representation theorems for lattices which, together with the exist…Read more

27Logics of similarity and their dual tableaux. A surveyIn Giacomo Della Riccia, Didier Dubois & Hans-Joachim Lenz (eds.), Preferences and Similarities, Springer. pp. 129--159. 2008.We present several classes of logics for reasoning with information stored in information systems. The logics enable us to cope with the phenomena of incompleteness of information and uncertainty of knowledge derived from such an information. Relational inference systems for these logics are developed in the style of dual tableaux.

18Dynamic logic with program specifications and its relational proof systemJournal of Applied Non-Classical Logics 3 (2): 147-171. 1993.ABSTRACT Propositional dynamic logic with converse and test, is enriched with complement, intersection and relational operations of weakest prespecification and weakest postspecification. Relational deduction system for the logic is given based on its interpretation in the relational calculus. Relational interpretation of the operators ?repeat? and ?loop? is given

15Dual tableau-based decision procedures for relational logics with restricted composition operatorJournal of Applied Non-Classical Logics 21 (2): 177-200. 2011.We consider fragments of the relational logic RL(1) obtained by posing various constraints on the relational terms involving the operator of composition of relations. These fragments allow to express several non classical logics including modal and description logics. We show how relational dual tableaux can be employed to provide decision procedures for each of them.

14Dual tableau for monoidal triangular norm logic MTLFuzzy Sets and Systems 162 (1). 2011.Monoidal triangular norm logic MTL is the logic of left-continuous triangular norms. In the paper we present a relational formalization of the logic MTL and then we introduce relational dual tableau that can be used for verification of validity of MTL-formulas. We prove soundness and completeness of the system.

1Relational interpretation of modal logicsBulletin of the Section of Logic 17 (1): 2-10. 1988.The purpose of the present paper is to show that modal propositional logics can be interpreted in a logic based on relational calculus. We consider languages with necessity operators [R], where R is an accessibility relation expression representing an element of the algebra of binary relations with operations −,∪,∩, −1 , ◦. The relational logic is based on relational calculus enriched by operations of weakest prespecification and weakest postspecification introduced in Hoare and He Jifeng and inve…Read more

Three Aspects of Verisimilitude'Bulletin of the Section of Logic 16 (3): 96-106. 1987.One of the generalizations of R. W´ojcicki’s concept of referential matrix is so-called pseudo-referential matrix . G. Malinowski, who introduced that concept, also considers a particular case of pseudo-referential matrices called discrete pseudo-referential matrices . In this note we want to show how any generalized matrix determines a semantically equivalent discrete pseudo-referential matrix
