Truth-values as labels: a general recipe for labelled deduction (original) (raw)
2003, Journal of Applied Non-Classical Logics
We introduce a general recipe for presenting non-classical logics in a modular and uniform way as labelled deduction systems. Our recipe is based on a labelling mechanism where labels are general entities that are present, in one way or another, in all logics, namely truth-values. More specifically, the main idea underlying our approach is the use of algebras of truth-values, whose operators reflect the semantics we have in mind, as the labelling algebras of our labelled deduction systems. The "truth-values as labels" approach allows us to give generalized systems for multiplevalued logics within the same formalism: since we can take multiple-valued logics as meaning not only finitely or infinitely many-valued logics but also power-set logics, i.e. logics for which the denotation of a formula can be seen as a set of worlds, our recipe allows us to capture also logics such as modal, intuitionistic and relevance logics, thus providing a first step towards the fibring of these logics with many-valued ones.

Labelled Deduction over Algebras of Truth-Values*

We introduce a framework for presenting non-classical logics in a modular and uniform way as labelled natural deduction systems. The use of algebras of truth-values as the labelling algebras of our systems allows us to give generalized systems for multiple-valued logics. More specifically, our framework generalizes previous work where labels represent worlds in the underlying Kripke structure: since we can take multiple-valued logics as meaning not only finitely or infinitely manyvalued logics but also power-set logics, our framework allows us to present also logics such as modal, intuitionistic and relevance logics, thus providing a first step towards fibring these logics with many-valued ones.
Systematic construction of natural deduction systems for many-valued logics
1993
Abstract A construction principle for natural deduction systems for arbitrary, finitely-many-valued first order logics is exhibited. These systems are systematically obtained from sequent calculi, which in turn can be automatically extracted from the truth tables of the logics under consideration. Soundness and cut-free completeness of these sequent calculi translate into soundness, completeness, and normal-form theorems for natural deduction systems
Dyadic semantics for many-valued logics
2003
This paper obtains an effective method which assigns two-valued semantics to every finite-valued truth-functional logic (in the direction of the so-called "Suszko's Thesis"), provided that its truth-values can be individualized by means of its linguistic resources. Such two-valued semantics permit us to obtain new tableau proof systems for a wide class of finitevalued logics, including the main many-valued paraconsistent logics.
This is the third chapter of a book concerning logic in the Lvov-Warsaw that I am writing at the moment. The chapter focuses on many-valued logic. Apart from Ćukasiewicz's systems, Zawirski's system of many-valued logic is also discussed.
Truth-value constants in multi-valued logics
In: Peter Schroeder-Heister on Proof-Theoretic Semantics, Springer, 2021
In some presentations of classical and intuitionistic logics, the object-language is assumed to contain (two) truth-value constants: verum and falsum, that are, respectively, true and false under every bivalent valuation. We are interested to de ne and study analogical constants that in an arbitrary multi-valued logic over truth-values have the truth-value v_i under every (multi-valued) valuation. We Definition ne such constants proof-theoretically via their associated I/E-rules in a natural-deduction proof system. As is well known, the absence or presence of such constants has a significant deductive impact on the logics studied. In particular, we propose a generalization of the notions of contradiction and explosiveness of a logic to the context of multi-valued logics.
