Abstract

In this work we lay a theoretical framework for developing dynamic epistemic logics in a many-valued setting. We consider in particular the logic of Public Announcements, which is one of the simplest and best-known dynamic epistemic systems in the literature. We show how to develop a Public Announcement Logic based on finite-valued Łukasiewicz modal logic. We define our logic through a relational semantics based on many-valued Kripke models, and also introduce an alternative but equivalent algebra-based semantics using MV-algebras endowed with modal operators. We provide a Hilbert-style calculus for our logic and prove completeness with respect to both semantics.

Notes

  1. 1.

    The multi-agent case is a straightforward generalization of the single-agent one: one just needs to index the static modal operator by the agents. At this point we do not deal with more complicated operators such as those for common knowledge; these may provide interesting lines for future research.
