Quasi-modal operators on distributive nearlattices

open access: yes, 2020
We introduce the notion of quasi-modal operator in the variety of distributive nearlattices, which turns out to be a generalization of the necessity modal operator studied in [S. Celani and I. Calomino, Math. Slovaca 69 (2019), no. 1, 35–52].

Logical Step-Indexed Logical Relations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Appel and McAllester's "step-indexed" logical relations have proven to be a simple and effective technique for reasoning about programs in languages with semantically interesting types, such as general recursive types and general reference types. However,

Refinement Modal Logic

open access: yes, 2013
In this paper we present {\em refinement modal logic}. A refinement is like a bisimulation, except that from the three relational requirements only `atoms' and `back' need to be satisfied.

Maximality and minimality in comparatives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In this paper, I investigate more closely the contribution of modal operators to the semantics of comparatives and I show that there is no need for a maximality or minimality operator. Following Kratzer s (1981, 1991) analysis of modal elements, I assume

An algebraic generalization of Kripke structures

open access: yes, 2007
The Kripke semantics of classical propositional normal modal logic is made algebraic via an embedding of Kripke structures into the larger class of pointed stably supported quantales.

Loop-check elimination for non-transitive distributed knowledge logic

open access: yesLietuvos Matematikos Rinkinys, 2008
A non-transitive distributed knowledge logic TnD, obtained from multi-modal logic Tn by adding distributed knowledge operator, is considered. Sound and complete loop-check-free sequent calculus for this logic is proposed.

Linear stability, transient energy growth and the role of viscosity stratification in compressible plane Couette flow

open access: yes, 2008
Linear stability and the non-modal transient energy growth in compressible plane Couette flow are investigated for two prototype mean flows: (a) the {\it uniform shear} flow with constant viscosity, and (b) the {\it non-uniform shear} flow with {\it ...

Scopes and Limits of Modality in Quantum Mechanics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We develop an algebraic frame for the simultaneous treatment of actual and possible properties of quantum systems. We show that, in spite of the fact that the language is enriched with the addition of a modal operator to the orthomodular structure ...

Hybrid Modal Operators for Definite Descriptions

open access: yes, 2023
In this paper, we study computational complexity and expressive power of modal operators for definite descriptions, which correspond to statements `the modal world which satisfies formula \(varphi\)'. We show that adding such operators to the basic (propositional) modal language has a price of increasing complexity of the satisfiability problem from ...
