Sahlqvist theory for impossible worlds [PDF]
Journal of Logic and Computation, 2016 We extend unified correspondence theory to Kripke frames with impossible worlds and their associated regular modal logics. These are logics the modal connectives of which are not required to be normal: only the weaker properties of additivity and multiplicativity are required.

The Review of Symbolic Logic, 2008 Among the many possible approaches to dealing with logical omniscience, I consider here awareness and impossible worlds structures.
