Abstract
In this paper, a new approach to the issue of extra-logical information within analytic (i.e. obeying the sub-formula property) sequent systems is introduced. We prove that incorporating extra-logical axioms into a purely logical system can preserve analyticity, provided these axioms belong to a suitable class of formulas that can be decomposed into a set of equivalent initial sequents and are permutable over the cut rule. Our approach is applicable not only to first-order classical and intuitionistic logics, but also to substructural logics. Furthermore, we establish a limit for the augmented systems under analysis: exceeding the boundaries of their respective classes of extra-logical axioms leads to either a loss of analyticity or a loss of structural properties.
期刊介绍:
Logic has found application in virtually all aspects of Information Technology, from software engineering and hardware to programming and artificial intelligence. Indeed, logic, artificial intelligence and theoretical computing are influencing each other to the extent that a new interdisciplinary area of Logic and Computation is emerging.
The Journal of Logic and Computation aims to promote the growth of logic and computing, including, among others, the following areas of interest: Logical Systems, such as classical and non-classical logic, constructive logic, categorical logic, modal logic, type theory, feasible maths.... Logical issues in logic programming, knowledge-based systems and automated reasoning; logical issues in knowledge representation, such as non-monotonic reasoning and systems of knowledge and belief; logics and semantics of programming; specification and verification of programs and systems; applications of logic in hardware and VLSI, natural language, concurrent computation, planning, and databases. The bulk of the content is technical scientific papers, although letters, reviews, and discussions, as well as relevant conference reviews, are included.
