Universe of Discourse and Existence
There is a fairly widespread belief that the problem of existence is not an essential issue for logic. Logic, though formal, must deal with the problem of existence.

Belief Change in Nonmonotonic Multi-Context Systems [PDF]
Brewka and Eiter's nonmonotonic multi-context system is an elegant knowledge representation framework to model heterogeneous and nonmonotonic multiple contexts. Belief change is a central problem in knowledge representation and reasoning.

Temporal Context-Based Delegation
In this paper, we put forward a dynamic delegation model based on a temporal context. Delegation is the process of granting a specific authorization from a user to another user of the same system to carry out some functions on his behalf.

Induction and Confirmation Theory: An Approach based on a Paraconsistent Nonmonotonic Logic [PDF]
This paper is an effort to realize and explore the connections that exist between nonmonotonic logic and confirmation theory. We pick up one of the most wide-spread nonmonotonic formalisms – default logic – and analyze to what extent and under what ...

Ancestor Worship in The Logic of Games. How foundational were Aristotle's contributions?
Notwithstanding their technical virtuosity and growing presence in mainstream thinking, game theoretic logics have attracted a sceptical question: "Granted that logic can be done game theoretically, but what would justify the idea that this is the ...

Cobalt‐Catalyzed C─N Bond Formation via Metal‐Hydride Hydrogen Atom Transfer (MHAT)
Cobalt‐catalyzed metal‐hydride hydrogen atom transfer (Co‐MHAT) converts simple alkenes into C─N bonds under mild, near‐neutral conditions. A shared Co─H‐initiated radical/organocobalt intermediate is channeled into radical trapping, radical‐polar crossover, or radical ligand transfer, unifying hydroamination, hydroazidation, hydroamidation, and remote

A logic of nonmonotone inductive definitions [PDF]
Well-known principles of induction include monotone induction and different sorts of nonmonotone induction such as inflationary induction, induction over well-founded sets and iterated induction. In this work, we define a logic formalizing induction over well-founded sets and monotone and iterated induction.

Relevance-driven evaluation of modular nonmonotonic logic programs [PDF]
. Modular nonmonotonic logic programs (MLPs) under the answer-set semantics have been recently introduced as an ASP formalism in which modules can receive context-dependent input from other modules, while allowing (mutually) recursive module calls.

Ideal reasoners don’t believe in zombies
The negative zombie argument states that p&~q is ideally negatively conceivable and, therefore, possible, what would entail that physicalism is false (Chalmers, 2002, 2010}.

Nonmonotonic Logics and Semantics
Tarski gave a general semantics for deductive reasoning: a formula a may be deduced from a set A of formulas iff a holds in all models in which each of the elements of A holds. A more liberal semantics has been considered: a formula a may be deduced from a set A of formulas iff a holds in all of the "preferred" models in which all the elements of A ...
