In order to do this, we introduce a new methodology for combining logics which are characterized by means of swap structures, based on what we call <i>superposition</i> of snapshots. In particular, the combination of <span>(mathcal {IDM}4)</span> with <span>(Tm)</span>, the 4-valued Ivlev’s version of <b>KT</b>, will be analyzed with more details. From the semantical perspective, the idea is to combine the 4-valued swap structures (Nmatrices) for <span>(Tm)</span> (and several of its extensions) with the 4-valued twist structure (logical matrix) for <span>(mathcal {IDM}4)</span>. This superposition produces a universe of 6 snapshots, with 3 of them being designated. The multioperators over the new universe are defined by combining the specifications of the given swap and twist structures. This gives rise to 6 different paradefinite Ivlev-like modal logics, each one of them characterized by a 6-valued Nmatrix, and conservatively extending the original modal logic and <span>(mathcal {IDM}4)</span>. This important feature allows to consider the proposed construction as a genuine technique for combining logics. In addition, it is possible to define in the combined logics a classicality operator in the sense of <i>logics of evidence and truth</i> (<i>LETs</i>). A sound and complete Hilbert-style axiomatization is also presented for the 6 combined systems, as well as a Prolog program which implements the swap structures semantics for the 6 systems, producing a decision procedure for satisfiability, refutability and validity of formulas in these logics.</p>","PeriodicalId":48979,"journal":{"name":"Studia Logica","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141867726","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To do this, a precise notion of clauses which axiomatize bivaluation semantics is proposed. From this specification, a swap structure is naturally induced. This formalization allows to define the combination by fibring of two given logics described by swap structures generated by clauses in a very simple way, by gathering together the formal specifications of both swap structures. We provide simple sufficient conditions to guarantee the preservation by fibring of soundness and completeness w.r.t. Hilbert calculi naturally defined from the clauses, as well as to prove that the fibring is a conservative expansion of both logics. As application examples of this technique, the combination by fibring of some non-normal Ivlev-like modal logics with paraconsistent logics in the class of <i>logics of formal inconsistency</i> (<i>LFI</i>s) are obtained, producing so several paraconsistent modal logics, each of them decidable by a single 6-valued Nmatrix. As expected, the fibring (union) of the respective Hilbert calculi provides a sound and complete axiomatization of the combined logics. More than this, the fibring is the least conservative expansion of the given logics.

We present in this article a way to complete the Holliday–Bezhanishvili project (uniformly, for any normal lattice expansion).

To illustrate, we apply the framework to lattices (and their logics) with some form or other of a (quasi)complementation operator, obtaining correspondence results and canonical extensions in relational frames and choice-free dualities for lattices with a minimal, or a Galois quasi-complement, or involutive lattices, including De Morgan algebras, as well as Ortholattices and Boolean algebras, as special cases.</p>","PeriodicalId":48979,"journal":{"name":"Studia Logica","volume":"72 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141785114","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
