Modal logic

Modal logic: an introduction to its syntax and semantics

by Cocchiarella, Nino B.

Type Book
Rate 0.0 /5

A variety of modal logics at the sentential, first-order, and second-order levels are developed with clarity, precision and philosophical insight. All of the S1-S5 modal logics of Lewis and Langford, among others, are constructed. A matrix, or many-valued semantics, for sentential modal logic is formalized, and an important result that no finite matrix can characterize any of the standard modal logics is proven.
