Abstract

Let \(\varGamma \) be a class of formulas. We say that a theory T in classical logic has the \(\varGamma \)-disjunction property if for any \(\varGamma \) sentences \(\varphi \) and \(\psi \), either \(T \vdash \varphi \) or \(T \vdash \psi \) whenever \(T \vdash \varphi \vee \psi \). First, we characterize the \(\varGamma \)-disjunction property in terms of the notion of partial conservativity. Secondly, we prove a model theoretic characterization result for \(\varSigma _n\)-disjunction property. Thirdly, we investigate relationships between partial disjunction properties and several other properties of theories containing Peano arithmetic. Finally, we investigate unprovability of formalized partial disjunction properties.
