Uncertainty-based knowing how logic

Abstract We introduce a novel semantics for a multi-agent epistemic operator of knowing how, based on an indistinguishability relation between plans. Our proposal is, arguably, closer to the standard presentation of knowing that modalities in classical epistemic logic. We study the relationship between this new semantics and previous approaches, showing that our setting is general enough to capture them. We also study the logical properties of the new semantics. First, we define a sound and complete axiomatization. Second, we define a suitable notion of bisimulation and prove correspondence theorems. Finally, we investigate the computational complexity of the model checking and satisfiability problems for the new logic.
