Residuated Frames with Applications to Decidability
نویسندگان
چکیده
Residuated frames provide relational semantics for substructural logics and are a natural generalization of Kripke frames in intuitionistic and modal logic, and of phase spaces in linear logic. We explore the connection between Gentzen systems and residuated frames and illustrate how frames provide a uniform treatment for semantic proofs of cut-elimination, the finite model property and the finite embeddability property. We use our results to prove the decidability of the equational and/or universal theory of several varieties of residuated lattice-ordered groupoids, including the variety of involutive

Distributive residuated frames and generalized bunched implication algebras
We show that all extensions of the (non-associative) Gentzen system for distributive full Lambek calculus by simple structural rules have the cut elimination property. Also, extensions by such rules that do not increase complexity have the finite model property, hence many subvarieties of the variety of distributive residuated lattices have decidable equational theories. For some other extensio...
متن کاملResiduated Lattices, Regular Languages, and Burnside Problem
In this talk we are going to explore an interesting connection between the famous Burnside problem for groups, regular languages, and residuated lattices. Let K be a finitely axiomatized class of residuated lattices. Recall that the usual way of proving decidability of universal theory for K is to establish that K has the finite embeddability property (FEP) [2, 3]. It turns out that the method ...
متن کاملResiduated Basic Logic II. Interpolation, Decidability and Embedding
We prove that the sequent calculus LRBL for residuated basic logic RBL has strong finite model property, and that intuitionistic logic can be embedded into basic propositional logic BPL. Thus RBL is decidable. Moreover, it follows that the class of residuated basic algebras has the finite embeddability property, and that BPL is PSPACE-complete, and that intuitionistic logic can be embedded into...
متن کاملA Survey of Residuated Lattices
Residuation is a fundamental concept of ordered structures and categories. In this survey we consider the consequences of adding a residuated monoid operation to lattices. The resulting residuated lattices have been studied in several branches of mathematics, including the areas of lattice-ordered groups, ideal lattices of rings, linear logic and multi-valued logic. Our exposition aims to cover...
متن کاملProof theory for lattice-ordered groups
Proof theory can provide useful tools for tackling problems in algebra. In particular, Gentzen systems admitting cut-elimination have been used to establish decidability, complexity, amalgamation, admissibility, and generation results for varieties of residuated lattices corresponding to substructural logics. However, for classes of algebras bearing some family resemblance to groups, such as la...
