Close semantics is introduced, a new possible-world semantics for such weak modal logics, and soundness and strong completeness for a range of systems are established.
Abstract
Weak modal logics can be obtained by restricting the axioms and inference rules governing the modal operator. At the extreme, one may consider the least modal logic, in which no specifically modal axiom or inference rule is imposed. We introduce closure semantics, a new possible-world semantics for such weak modal logics, and establish soundness and strong completeness for a range of systems. We also give truth-preserving translations between closure models and other possible-world semantics, including neighborhood, FMT, and Kripke semantics.
Motivated by relevant epistemic logic, we extend Dunn's simple Kripke-style binary relational semantics for the semi-relevant logic RM to fit a modal extension of RM. It is shown that the modal axioms and rules that need to be added to RM to obtain a sound and complete axiomatisation of its modal extension give an axio...
New proofs of weak normalization for intuitionistic and classical propositional logics (with the full set of operators -- falsum, implication, conjunction and disjunction) are presented and a deterministic algorithm for weak normalization is presented.
This paper provides a constructive decision procedure, that, given a formula, produces either a proof showing the formula to be valid or a finite countermodel falsifying the formula, thus also proving the finite model property for both logics.

It is proved that if a finitely axiomatizable modal logic L is elementary, then the validity problem for L, which asks whether a given finite Kripke frame validates L, is in P, which allows us to transfer complexity results in graph theory to the study of elementarity of modal logics.
In this short paper, we discuss a model-theoretic characterization of when a collection of relational structures is axiomatizable via a finite set of disjunctive existential rules. The presented characterization uses the property of criticality, a refined version of closure under direct products, and a new property tha...

This paper proposes a calculus for Dynamic Epistemic Logic (DEL) based on dynamic hypersequents, a new framework for capturing the dynamics of epistemic models in a purely structural and natural way. We enrich dynamic hypersequents with agent indices and an event store, yielding a uniform representation of epistemic ev...
