Relating Sequent Calculi for Bi-intuitionistic Propositional Logic [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2011
Bi-intuitionistic logic is the conservative extension of intuitionistic logic with a connective dual to implication. It is sometimes presented as a symmetric constructive subsystem of classical logic.

Introducing reactive Kripke semantics and arc accessibility [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
peer reviewedOrdinary Kripke models are not reactive. When we evaluate (test/ measure) a formula A at a model m, the model does not react, respond or change while we evaluate. The model is static and unchanged.

Bad Practices: Unintended Consequences of Practice‐Based Theories of Reference

open access: yesAnalytic Philosophy, Volume 67, Issue 3, Page 249-261, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Practice theories are a genus of causal theories of reference. They claim that the semantic referent of an utterance of a name is determined by features of a practice of using that name to speaker‐refer to, or coordinate actions around, a certain object.

Forcing for an Optimal A-Translation

open access: yesLogics
Kripke semantics for intuitionistic predicate logic IQC is often viewed as a forcing relation between posets and formulas. In this paper, we further introduce Cohen forcing into semantics.

Strong Completeness and the Finite Model Property for Bi-Intuitionistic Stable Tense Logics [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2017
Bi-Intuitionistic Stable Tense Logics (BIST Logics) are tense logics with a Kripke semantics where worlds in a frame are equipped with a pre-order as well as with an accessibility relation which is 'stable' with respect to this pre-order.

Visual Icons

open access: yesPhilosophy and Phenomenological Research, Volume 113, Issue 2, Page 327-345, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Philosophers often characterize perception as image‐like. There is little agreement, however, about what constitutes an imagistic or iconic representation. This article identifies five signature properties of iconic representations endorsed in the philosophical and scientific literature: item‐richness, feature‐richness, spatiotemporal ...

Book review: ALMOG, J. Referential Mechanics: Direct Reference and the Foundations of Semantics (Oxford University Press, 2014)

open access: yesManuscrito
: In this review I discuss Joseph Almog's book "Referential Mechanics". The book discusses direct reference as conceived by three of its founding fathers, Kripke, Kaplan and Donnellan, and introduces Almog's ambitious project of providing a referential ...

We Do Not Know Propositions

open access: yesTheoria, Volume 92, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Contemporary epistemologists analysing knowledge take (true) propositions to be the object of knowledge. In this paper, I provide an argument for the claim that the object of knowledge is, in fact, the world. The propositions in propositional knowledge ascriptions merely describe the part of the world of which the subject is aware. Kent Bach's

Completeness by Modal Definitions. Application to the Epistemic Logic With Hypotheses

open access: yesInteligencia Artificial, 2020
We investigate the variant of epistemic logic S5 for reasoning about knowledge under hypotheses. The logic is equipped with a modal operator of necessity that can be parameterized with a hypothesis representing background assumptions.

Deterministic Theories

open access: yesPhilosophy and Phenomenological Research, Volume 113, Issue 1, Page 134-152, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Determinism is (roughly) the thesis that the past determines the future. But efforts to define it precisely have exposed deep methodological disagreements. Standard possible‐worlds formulations of determinism presuppose an “agreement” relation between worlds, but this relation can be understood in multiple ways, none of which is particularly ...
