Abstract

This paper is a sequel to Lee (2007) and Lee (2009). In Lee (2009) it is proved that there are weak subclassical predicate logics (which are classically sound but weaker than the first-order logic) which also satisfy the Classical Model Existence property (CME for short): Every consistent set has a classical model. In this paper we improve the result in Lee (2007) by showing that some weak propositional logics (extensions of the implicational linear logic BCI) also satisfy CME in propositional case. For subclassical predicate logics two types of approaches (by prenex normal form construction or by Hintikka style construction) will be considered. By this we prove that CME for predicate logics also holds for some subclassical logics with weak propositional part.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Actually here we use axiom schemes, but call them axioms for simplicity.

  2. 2.

    Here we omit, in Paoli (2002), the adjunction rule “from \(\alpha \) and \(\beta \) infer \(\alpha \wedge \beta \)” and replace \(\vdash \) by \(\Rightarrow \). We preserve the symbol \(\vdash \) for the standard provability in Hilbert systems.

  3. 3.

    Precisely speaking, the negation completeness here is \(\rightarrow \bot \) completeness, which may not be equivalent to \(\lnot \) completeness while \(\lnot \) is a primitive logic connective.

  4. 4.

    That is, if \(\varphi \) is an axiom of \({\mathscr {Q}_1}{\mathscr {H}}_i\), then so is \(\forall {\overrightarrow{x}} \varphi \).

  5. 5.

    Add one if there is none.
