Awareness, negation and Logical omniscience [PDF]
General Epistemic Logics suffer from the problem of logical omniscience, which is that an agent's knowledge and beliefs are closed under implication. There have been many attempts to solve the problem of logical omniscience. However, according to our intuition, sometimes an agent's knowledge and beliefs are indeed closed under implication. Based on the

Logical omniscience as a computational complexity problem [PDF]
The logical omniscience feature assumes that an epistemic agent knows all logical consequences of her assumptions. This paper offers a general theoretical framework that views logical omniscience as a computational complexity problem. We suggest the following approach: we assume that the knowledge of an agent is represented by an epistemic logical ...

Ordinary thinkers don’t know every necessary truth - they are not “logically omniscient.” Furthermore, they don’t know everything that follows from their beliefs - they are not “deductively omniscient.” Stalnaker has famously argued that this is partly ...

Certain theorists, however—supervaluationists and relativists—have attempted to maintain both the open future view, and Retro-closure. In this chapter,

Logical Omniscience as a Conditionality Issue. A Multi-Modal Approach
Many solutions to the problem of Logical Omniscience assume that this arises from the behavior of the epistemic operators. However, few proposals have criticized the assumption that material implication accurately accounts for conditionality. This paper

Noos and Mortal Enquiry in the Poetry of Xenophanes and Parmenides
