Reactive preferential structures and nonmonotonic consequence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We introduce information bearing systems (IBRS) as an abstraction of many logical systems. We define a general semantics for IBRS, and show that IBRS generalize in a natural way preferential semantics and solve open representation ...

On the Concept of a Notational Variant [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In the study of modal and nonclassical logics, translations have frequently been employed as a way of measuring the inferential capabilities of a logic.

The ubiquity of conservative translations

open access: yes, 2012
We study the notion of conservative translation between logics introduced by Feitosa and D'Ottaviano. We show that classical propositional logic (CPC) is universal in the sense that every finitary consequence relation over a countable set of formulas can

On Counterfactuals and Contextuality

open access: yes, 2004
Counterfactual reasoning and contextuality is defined and critically evaluated with regard to its nonempirical content. To this end, a uniqueness property of states, explosion views and link observables are introduced. If only a single context associated

Impossible Worlds Are Here to Stay

open access: yesCrítica
I address objections to impossible worlds (IWs) by Timothy Williamson and Kit Fine. Two species of IWs Mark Jago and I had in our Impossible Worlds book were FDE worlds (worlds used in the semantics of the nonclassical logic of First Degree Entailment ...

Quantifiers for a Modal Future

open access: yesPhilosophical Perspectives, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Future auxiliaries present a challenge to the classical analysis of modal expressions as existential or universal quantifiers over a contextually provided set of possible worlds: these expressions come with a distinct modal flavor, but their interaction with negation and the fact that future judgments come in degrees of confidence is ...

Recovering Quantum Logic within an Extended Classical Framework

open access: yes, 2011
We present a procedure which allows us to recover classical and nonclassical logical structures as \emph{concrete logics} associated with physical theories expressed by means of classical languages. This procedure consists in choosing, for a given theory

Innate Immunity and Microbial Recognition in Reproduction: From Barrier Defense to Maternal–Fetal Tolerance

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 8, 30 April 2026.
Graphical abstract illustrating the barrier defense–tolerance framework of reproductive innate immunity. Across the female and male reproductive tracts and the maternal–fetal interface, epithelial barriers, innate sensors, immune cells, and microbial signals are integrated to preserve reproductive homeostasis.

The Roles of Macrophage Lineage Cells (MLCs) in Brain Aging

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 4, April 2026.
This review highlights the critical role of macrophage lineage cells (MLCs), including microglia, border‐associated macrophages (BAMs), and CNS‐infiltrating monocyte‐derived macrophages (MDMs), in brain aging. It explores the drivers and propagation of MLCs senescence and discusses potential therapeutic strategies targeting MLCs senescence.
