Modal tableaux for reasoning about diagrams
Poznan Studies in the Philosophy of the Sciences and the Humanities 91 (1):169-184 (2006)
| Abstract | This paper, we propose a modal logic satisfying minimal requirements for reasoning about diagrams via collection of sets and relations between them, following Harel's proposal. We first give an axiomatics of such a theory and then provide its Kripke semantics. Then we extend previous works of ours in order to obtain a decision procedure based on tableaux for this logic. Beside soundness and completeness of our tableaux, we manage to define a strategy of rule application ensuring termination by extending the usual loop test of modal logic S4 to whole sub-structures of the model being computed. | |||||||||
