Abstract

In this paper, we present a three-valued intuitionistic version of Clark's completion, denoted by Comp3I(P) ; we prove the soundness of SLDNF-resolution with respect to Comp3I(P), and the completeness both for success and failure, as far as allowed programs are concerned. Then we compare our results to Kunen, Cerrito and Shepherdson's works which are based on classical three-valued logic, linear logic, and on a system of rules which are valid in both intuitionistic logic and three-valued logic.
