We present an elementary axiomatisation of synthetic domain theory and show that it is sufficient to deduce the fixed point property and solve domain equations. Models of these a...
Abstract. We extend the termination proof methods based on reduction orderings to higher-order rewriting systems `a la Nipkow using higher-order pattern matching for firing rules,...
Baeten, Bergstra, and Klop (and later Caucal) have proved the remarkable result that bisimulation equivalence is decidable for irredundant context-free grammars. In this paper we ...
When logic programming is based on the proof theory of intuitionistic logic, it is natural to allow implications in goals and in the bodies of clauses. Attempting to prove a goal ...

In the paper, we investigate the way in which nonmonotonic modal logics depend on their underlying monotonic modal logics. Most notably, we study when different monotonic modal l...

Theories of rational belief revision recently proposed by Alchourron, Gardenfors, Makinson, and Nebel illuminate many important issues but impose unnecessarily strong standards fo...
