inference of necessitation: A --- []A But A->[]A is not valid in Leibniz semantics. A true in a world does not entails A true in all worlds! So by the soundness/completeness result for S5 with respect to Leibniz semantics S5 does not prove A->[]A

I was'nt aware "if" was a diadic operator. My boolean interpretation of what's been presented: OR: AB:C 00 0 01 1 10 1 11 1 IF: AB:C 11 1 10 0 01 1 00 1 Can someone explain the "IF" table? Robert W. --- "Scott D. Yelich" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Tue, 27 Mar 2001 [E

Hi George, I make the foolish promise to give you my proof. Here is Leibniz semantics for modal logic. It is a preamble. Don't hesitate to tell me if it is too difficult or too easy, or too technical ... I suppose you know a little bit of classical logic. If you don't, just tell me. A
