چکیده

If we view fuzzy logic as a logic, i.e., as a particular case of a multivalued logic, then one of the most natural questions to ask is whether the corresponding propositional logic is decidable, i.e., does there exist an algorithm that, given two propositional formulas F and G, decides whether these two formulas always have the same truth value. It is known that the simplest fuzzy logic, in which & = min and ∨ = max, is decidable. In this paper, we prove a more general result: that all propositional fuzzy logics with algebraic operations are decidable, We also show that this result cannot be generalized further: e.g., no deciding algorithm is possible for logics in which operations are algebraic with constructive (non-algebraic) coefficients.

Decidable and Undecidable Fragments of First-Order Branching Temporal Logics

In this paper we analyze the decision problem for fragments of first-order extensions of branching time temporal logics such as computational tree logics CTL and CTL or Prior’s Ockhamist logic of historical necessity. On the one hand, we show that the one-variable fragments of logics like first-order C T L —such as the product of propositional C T L with simple propositional modal logic S5, or ...

A Tableau-Based Decision Procedure for Right Propositional Neighborhood Logic

Propositional interval temporal logics are quite expressive temporal logics that allow one to naturally express statements that refer to time intervals. Unfortunately, most such logics turned out to be (highly) undecidable. To get decidability, severe syntactic and/or semantic restrictions have been imposed to interval-based temporal logics that make it possible to reduce them to point-based on...

The undecidability of propositional adaptive logic

We investigate and classify the notion of final derivability of two basic inconsistency-adaptive logics. Specifically, the maximal complexity of the set of final consequences of decidable sets of premises formulated in the language of propositional logic is described. Our results show that taking the consequences of a decidable propositional theory is a complicated operation. The set of final c...

Truth Values and Connectives in Some Non-Classical Logics

The question as to whether the propositional logic of Heyting, which was a formalization of Brouwer's intuitionistic logic, is finitely many valued or not, was open for a while (the question was asked by Hahn). Kurt Gödel (1932) introduced an infinite decreasing chain of intermediate logics, which are known nowadays as Gödel logics, for showing that the intuitionistic logic is not finitely (man...

Decidable Logics with Associative Binary Modalities

A new family of modal logics with an associative binary modality, called counting logics is proposed. These propositional logics allow to express finite cardinalities of sets and more generally to count the number of subsets satisfying some properties. We show that these logics can be seen both as specializations of the Boolean logic of bunched implications and as generalizations of the proposi...
