The semantics of BI and resource tableaux
نویسندگان
چکیده
The logic of bunched implications, BI, provides a logical analysis of a basic notion of resource rich enough, for example, to form the logical basis for “pointer logic” and “separation logic” semantics for programs which manipulate mutable data structures. We develop a theory of semantic tableaux for BI, so providing an elegant basis for efficient theorem proving tools for BI. It is based on the use of an algebra of labels for BI’s tableaux to solve the resource-distribution problem, the labels being the elements of resource models. For BI with inconsistency, , the challenge consists in dealing with BI’s Grothendieck topological models within such a proof-search method, based on labels. We prove soundness and completeness theorems for a resource tableaux method TBI with respect to this semantics and provide a way to build countermodels from so-called dependency graphs. Then, from these results, we can define a new resource semantics of BI, based on partially defined monoids, and prove that this semantics is complete. Such a semantics, based on partiality, is closely related to the semantics of BI’s (intuitionistic) pointer and separation logics. Returning to the tableaux calculus, we propose a new version with liberalized rules for which the countermodels are closely related to the topological Kripke semantics of BI. As consequences of the relationships between semantics of BI and resource tableaux, we prove two strong new results for propositional BI: its decidability and the finite model property with respect to topological semantics.

متن کاملA logic of separating modalities
We present a logic of separating modalities, LSM, that is based on Boolean BI. LSM’s modalities, which generalize those of S4, combine, within a quite general relational semantics, BI’s resource semantics with modal accessibility. We provide a range of examples illustrating their use for modelling. We give a proof system based on a labelled tableaux calculus with countermodel extraction, establ...
متن کاملA Substructural Epistemic Resource Logic and Its Use in Systems Security Modelling
We present a substructural epistemic logic, based on Boolean BI, in which the epistemic modalities are parametrized on the agent’s local resource. The new modalities can be seen as generalizations of the usual epistemic modalities. The logic combines Boolean BI’s resource semantics with epistemic agency. We give a labelled tableaux calculus and establish soundness and completeness with respect ...
