Kripke Semantics for Basic Sequent Systems

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 6793))

Abstract

We present a general method for providing Kripke semantics for the family of fully-structural multiple-conclusion propositional sequent systems. In particular, many well-known Kripke semantics for a variety of logics are easily obtained as special cases. This semantics is then used to obtain semantic characterizations of analytic sequent systems of this type, as well as of those admitting cut-admissibility. These characterizations serve as a uniform basis for semantic proofs of analyticity and cut-admissibility in such systems.
