Strong Completeness and Limited Canonicity for PDL

Abstract: Propositional dynamic logic (PDL) is complete but not compact. As a consequence, strong completeness (the property | ϕ ⇒ ϕ) requires an infinitary proof system. In this paper, we present a short proof for strong completeness of PDL relative to an infinitary proof system containing the rule from [α; β n ]ϕ for all n ∈ N, conclude [α; β * ]ϕ. The proof uses a universal canonical model, and it is generalized to other modal logics with infinitary proof rules, such as epistemic knowledge with common knowledge. Also… Show more

“…As a reasonable guidance in the choice of the logical operators in our setting we can make use of the notion of safety for bisimulation (see van Benthem 1996). Roughly, an operation on relations is safe for bisimulation if it preserves the relation of bisimulation between models that are bisimilar with respect to its argument relations.…”

“…Therefore, we no longer claim any priority regarding the proof of strong completeness of PDL ω . Indeed, the proof of Theorem 1 in Renardel de Lavalette et al (2008) turns out to be a rather short argument that can be obtained by stripping down other, more general proofs to the bare essentials for PDL. 3.…”
