Dynamic Semantics

2012
The integrated theory of dynamic interpretation set out here will be a surprise to advanced researchers in linguistics. It combines classical formal semantics and modern dynamic semantics without altering the fundamental paradigm. At the book’s core lies a pragmatically motivated notion of a dynamic conjunction of meanings, an idea that is worked out ...

Imperative Negation and Dynamic Semantics

2003
The philosophical thesis that is defended in this paper is the thesis that an atomic sentence and its negation belong to the same category. In the case of imperatives, the thesis implies that an imperative and its negation are equipotent with respect to their binding force and layers of informational content.

Dynamic semantics and circular propositions

Journal of Philosophical Logic, 1994
The paper applies the technique of update semantics [see, e.g., \textit{J. van Benthem}, ``General dynamics'', Theor. Linguist. 17, No. 1-3, 159-201 (1991; Zbl 0743.03019)] to the Austinian semantics of \textit{J. Barwise} and \textit{J. Etchemendy} [The liar: an essay on truth and circularity (1987; Zbl 0678.03001)] in order to throw further light on ...

A Dynamic Semantics of Modal Subordination

2006
This paper will propose a dynamic semantics of quantified modal logic based on the theory of System Transition Systems, which are abstract objects modeling “Kripke models of Kripke models” or graph rewriting systems, by exlpoiting the theory of coalgebras in order to treat modal subordination as a Kripke model change, which requires no ad-hoc informal ...

A Dynamic Semantics of Intentional Identity

2007
This paper will propose a new version of Dynamic Modal Predicate Logic (DMPL) to treat dynamics of intentional identity [1] and other similar notions such as weak intentional identity and multiple intentional identity by revising the DMPL of modal subordination [2] by adding a kind of counterpart relation.

Towards the Dynamic Semantic Web

2008
The Semantic Web is emerging as the future platform for computation. The ability to represent information, its structure and some of its semantics in a canonical form that is readable and understandable by machine forms the key infrastructure for truly ubiquitous computing.
