    Four-valued modal logic: Kripke semantics and duality
    (IEEE Xplore, 2017-02) Rivieccio, Umberto; Jung, Achim; Jansana, Ramon
    We introduce a family of modal expansions of Belnap–Dunn four-valued logic and related systems, and interpret them in many-valued Kripke structures. Using algebraic logic techniques and topological duality for modal algebras, and generalizing the so-called twist-structure representation, we axiomatize by means of Hilbert-style calculi the least modal logic over the four-element Belnap lattice and some of its axiomatic extensions. We study the algebraic models of these systems, relating them to the algebraic semantics of classical multi-modal logic. This link allows us to prove that both local and global consequence of the least four-valued modal logic enjoy the finite model property and are therefore decidable.

    Bilattice Logic Properly Displayed
    (Elsevier, 2019-05-15) Greco, Giuseppe; Fei Liang,; Palmigiano,Alessandra; Rivieccio, Umberto
    We introduce a proper multi-type display calculus for bilattice logic (with conflation) for which we prove soundness, completeness, conservativity, standard subformula property and cut elimination. Our proposal builds on the product representation of bilattices and applies the guidelines of the multi-type methodology in the design of display calculi.

    Bilattice logic of epistemic actions and knowledge
    (ELSEVIER, 2020-06-01) Bakhtiari, Zeinab; Ditmarsch, Hans van; Rivieccio, Umberto
    Baltag, Moss, and Solecki proposed an expansion of classical modal logic, called logic of epistemic actions and knowledge (EAK), in which one can reason about knowledge and change of knowledge. Kurz and Palmigiano showed how duality theory provides a flexible framework for modeling such epistemic changes, allowing one to develop dynamic epistemic logics on a weaker propositional basis than classical logic (for example an intuitionistic basis). In this paper we show how the techniques of Kurz and Palmigiano can be further extended to define and axiomatize a bilattice logic of epistemic actions and knowledge (BEAK). Our propositional basis is a modal expansion of the well-known four-valued logic of Belnap and Dunn, which is a system designed for handling inconsistent as well as potentially conflicting information. These features, we believe, make our framework particularly promising from a computer science perspective.

    Prelinearity in (quasi-)Nelson logic
    (ELSEVIER, 2022-09-20) Flaminio, Tommaso; Rivieccio, Umberto; programa Horizonte 2020 (H2020) de la Comisión Europea; Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades (MCIN), a través de la Agencia Estatal de Investigación (AEI), en el marco del Plan Estatal de Investigación Científica y Técnica y de Innovación
    The algebraic theory of quasi-Nelson logic, a non-involutive generalization of Nelson's constructive logic with strong negation, has been shown to be surprisingly rich in a series of recent papers. In the present paper we bring quasi-Nelson logic into the fuzzy setting by adding the prelinearity axiom to it. We observe that the resulting system is an extension of the well-known Weak Nilpotent Minimum logic, as well as a rotation logic in the sense of recent work by P. Aglianò and S. Ugolini. We characterize the algebraic models of prelinear quasi-Nelson logic as twist-structures over Gödel algebras endowed with a nucleus operator and use the insight thus gained to look at subvarieties corresponding to extensions of well-known fuzzy systems. Our study of the quasi-Nelson negation in a prelinear setting also allows us to show that the variety of prelinear quasi-Nelson algebras is generated by a single standard algebra, thus obtaining a single chain completeness theorem for the logic.

    An infinity of super-Belnap logics
    (Taylor & Francis, 2012) Rivieccio, Umberto
    We look at extensions (i.e., stronger logics in the same language) of the Belnap–Dunn four-valued logic. We prove the existence of a countable chain of logics that extend the Belnap–Dunn and do not coincide with any of the known extensions (Kleene’s logics, Priest’s logic of paradox). We characterise the reduced algebraic models of these new logics and prove a completeness result for the first and last element of the chain stating that both logics are determined by a single finite logical matrix. We show that the last logic of the chain is not finitely axiomatisable.

    Fragments of Quasi-Nelson: The Algebraizable Core
    (Oxford University Press, 2022-10-01) Rivieccio, Umberto; CNPq (Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico), Brasil
    This is the second of a series of papers that investigate fragments of quasi-Nelson logic (QNL) from an algebraic logic standpoint. QNL, recently introduced as a common generalization of intuitionistic and Nelson’s constructive logic with strong negation, is the axiomatic extension of the substructural logic (full Lambek calculus with exchange and weakening) by the Nelson axiom. The algebraic counterpart of QNL (quasi-Nelson algebras) is a class of commutative integral residuated lattices (a.k.a. -algebras) that includes both Heyting and Nelson algebras and can be characterized algebraically in several alternative ways. The present paper focuses on the algebraic counterpart (a class we dub quasi-Nelson implication algebras, QNI-algebras) of the implication–negation fragment of QNL, corresponding to the connectives that witness the algebraizability of QNL. We recall the main known results on QNI-algebras and establish a number of new ones. Among these, we show that QNI-algebras form a congruence-distributive variety (Cor. 3.15) that enjoys equationally definable principal congruences and the strong congruence extension property (Prop. 3.16); we also characterize the subdirectly irreducible QNI-algebras in terms of the underlying poset structure (Thm. 4.23). Most of these results are obtained thanks to twist representations for QNI-algebras, which generalize the known ones for Nelson and quasi-Nelson algebras; we further introduce a Hilbert-style calculus that is algebraizable and has the variety of QNI-algebras as its equivalent algebraic semantics.

    Characterizing finite-valuedness
    (Elsevier, 2018-08-15) Caleiro, Carlos; Marcelino, Sérgio; Rivieccio, Umberto
    We introduce properties of consequence relations that provide abstract counterparts of different notions of finite-valuedness in logic. In particular, we obtain characterizations of logics that are determined (i) by a single finite matrix, (ii) by a finite set of finite matrices, and (iii) by a set of n-generated matrices for some natural number n. A crucial role is played in our proofs by two closely related notions, local tabularity and local finiteness.

    Nothing but the truth
    (Springer, 2013) Pietz, Andreas; Rivieccio, Umberto
    A curious feature of Belnap’s “useful four-valued logic”, also known as first-degree entailment (FDE), is that the overdetermined value B (both true and false) is treated as a designated value. Although there are good theoretical reasons for this, it seems prima facie more plausible to have only one of the four values designated, namely T (exactly true). This paper follows this route and investigates the resulting logic, which we call Exactly True Logic.

    The logic of distributive bilattices
    (Oxford University Press, 2011) Bou, Félix; Rivieccio, Umberto
    Bilattices, introduced by Ginsberg (1988, Comput. Intell., 265–316) as a uniform framework for inference in artificial intelligence, are algebraic structures that proved useful in many fields. In recent years, Arieli and Avron (1996, J. Logic Lang. Inform., 5, 25–63) developed a logical system based on a class of bilattice-based matrices, called logical bilattices, and provided a Gentzen-style calculus for it. This logic is essentially an expansion of the well-known Belnap–Dunn four-valued logic to the standard language of bilattices. Our aim is to study Arieli and Avron’s logic from the perspective of abstract algebraic logic (AAL). We introduce a Hilbert-style axiomatization in order to investigate the properties of the algebraic models of this logic, proving that every formula can be reduced to an equivalent normal form and that our axiomatization is complete w.r.t. Arieli and Avron’s semantics. In this way, we are able to classify this logic according to the criteria of AAL. We show, for instance, that it is non-protoalgebraic and non-self-extensional. We also characterize its Tarski congruence and the class of algebraic reducts of its reduced generalized models, which in the general theory of AAL is usually taken to be the algebraic counterpart of a sentential logic. This class turns out to be the variety generated by the smallest non-trivial bilattice, which is strictly contained in the class of algebraic reducts of logical bilattices. On the other hand, we prove that the class of algebraic reducts of reduced models of our logic is strictly included in the class of algebraic reducts of its reduced generalized models. Another interesting result obtained is that, as happens with some implicationless fragments of well-known logics, we can associate with our logic a Gentzen calculus which is algebraizable in the sense of Rebagliato and Verdú (1995, Algebraizable Gentzen Systems and the Deduction of Theorem for Gentzen Systems) (even if the logic itself is not algebraizable). We also prove some purely algebraic results concerning bilattices, for instance that the variety of (unbounded) distributive bilattices is generated by the smallest non-trivial bilattice. This result is based on an improvement of a theorem by Avron (1996, Math. Struct. Comput. Sci., 6, 287–299) stating that every bounded interlaced bilattice is isomorphic to a certain product of two bounded lattices. We generalize it to the case of unbounded interlaced bilattices (of which distributive bilattices are a proper subclass).

    Neutrosophic logics: prospects and problems
    (Elsevier, 2008) Rivieccio, Umberto
    Neutrosophy has been introduced some years ago by Florentin Smarandache as a new branch of philosophy dealing with “the origin, nature and scope of neutralities, as well as their interactions with different ideational spectra”. A variety of new theories have been developed on the basic principles of neutrosophy: among them is neutrosophic logics, a family of many-valued systems that can be regarded as a generalization of fuzzy logics. In this paper we present a critical introduction to neutrosophic logics, focusing on the problem of defining suitable neutrosophic propositional connectives and discussing the relationship between neutrosophic logics and other well-known frameworks for reasoning with uncertainty and vagueness, such as (intuitionistic and interval-valued) fuzzy systems and Belnap’s logic.
