On the logic of theory change: iteration of expansion
Journal of the Brazilian Computer Society, 2018 Constructing models that allow for iterated changes is one of the most studied problems in the literature on belief change. However, up to now, iteration of expansion was only studied as a special case of consistent revision and, as far we know, there is

, 2008 Various tasks need to consider preferences in a dynamic way. We start by discussing several possible meanings of preference change, and then focus on the one we think is the most natural: preferences evolving after some new fact has been learned.

Iterated Belief Change, Computationally
Proceedings of the Nineteenth International Conference on Principles of Knowledge Representation and Reasoning, 2022 This paper considers belief change in the Darwiche-Pearl framework. We demonstrate that iterative belief revision is Turing complete by showing how revision operators over ranking functions can simulate every Turing machine. Our result holds even under the condition that the broadly accepted Darwiche-Pearl postulates for iterated revision hold.
