Dynamic Epistemic Logic and Logical Omniscience

open access: yesLogic and Logical Philosophy, 2015
Epistemic logics based on the possible worlds semantics suffer from the problem of logical omniscience, whereby agents are described as knowing all logical consequences of what they know, including all tautologies.
