Advances in Modal Logic 2010, Extended Abstracts

The paper draws attention to the epistemological obstacles that prevented Wittgenstein from acknowledging the modern view of modal logic, including the so-called propositional attitudes. Whilst suggesting a retrospective overview of the logic of epistemic modalities, it is argued that such obstacles primarily rely upon the nature of the logical space depicted in the Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus as well as the metaphysical status of the subject. Some relevant quotes are recalled to justify the essentially universal feature of logic according to the early Wittgenstein.
Recently some elaborations were made concerning the game theoretic semantic of Lℵ0 and its extension. In the paper this kind of semantics is developed for Dishkant’s quantum modal logic LQ which is also, in fact, the specific extension of Lℵ0 . As a starting point some game theoretic interpretation for the S L system (extending both Lukasiewicz logic Lℵ0 and modal logic S5) was exploited which has been proposed in 2006 by C.Ferm˝uller and R.Kosik . They, in turn, based on ideas already introduced by Robin Giles in the 1970th to obtain a characterization of Lℵ0 in terms of a Lorenzen style dialogue game combined with bets on the results of binary experiments that may show dispersion.
This volume is dedicated to Leo Esakia’s contributions to the theory of modal and intuitionistic systems. Leo Esakia was one of the pioneers in developing duality theory for modal and intuitionistic logics, and masterfully utilizing it to obtain some major results in the area. The volume consists of 10 chapters, written by leading experts, that discuss Leo’s original contributions and consequent developments that have shaped the current state of the field.
Advances in Modal Logic is a bi-annual international conference and book series in Modal Logic. The aim of the conference series is to report on important new developments in pure and applied modal logic, and to do so at varying locations throughout the world. The book series is based on the conferences. Please consult thebackground pages for further details.
In this paper we introduce public announcements to Subset Space Logic (SSL). In order to do this we have to change the original semantics for SSL a little and consider a weaker version of SSL without the cross axiom. We present an axiomatization, prove completeness and show that this logic is PSPACE-complete. Finally, we add the arbitrary announcement modality which expresses ``true after any announcement'', prove several semantic results, and show completeness for a Hilbert-style axiomatization of this logic.
We consider modal logics of products of neighborhood frames and prove that for any pair L and L' of logics from set {S4, D4, D, T} modal logic of products of L-neighborhood frames and L'-neighborhood frames is the fusion of L and L'.
We consider certain spaces of functions on the circle, which naturally appear in harmonic analysis, and superposition operators on these spaces. We study the following question: which functions have the property that each their superposition with a homeomorphism of the circle belongs to a given space? We also study the multidimensional case.
We consider the spaces of functions on the m-dimensional torus, whose Fourier transform is p -summable. We obtain estimates for the norms of the exponential functions deformed by a C1 -smooth phase. The results generalize to the multidimensional case the one-dimensional results obtained by the author earlier in “Quantitative estimates in the Beurling—Helson theorem”, Sbornik: Mathematics, 201:12 (2010), 1811 – 1836.

The problem of minimizing the root mean square deviation of a uniform string with clamped ends from an equilibrium position is investigated. It is assumed that the initial conditions are specified and the ends of the string are clamped. The Fourier method is used, which enables the control problem with a partial differential equation to be reduced to a control problem with a denumerable system of ordinary differential equations. For the optimal control problem in the l2 space obtained, it is proved that the optimal synthesis contains singular trajectories and chattering trajectories. For the initial problem of the optimal control of the vibrations of a string it is also proved that there is a unique solution for which the optimal control has a denumerable number of switchings in a finite time interval.
For a class of optimal control problems and Hamiltonian systems generated by these problems in the space l 2, we prove the existence of extremals with a countable number of switchings on a finite time interval. The optimal synthesis that we construct in the space l 2 forms a fiber bundle with piecewise smooth two-dimensional fibers consisting of extremals with a countable number of switchings over an infinite-dimensional basis of singular extremals.
This proceedings publication is a compilation of selected contributions from the “Third International Conference on the Dynamics of Information Systems” which took place at the University of Florida, Gainesville, February 16–18, 2011. The purpose of this conference was to bring together scientists and engineers from industry, government, and academia in order to exchange new discoveries and results in a broad range of topics relevant to the theory and practice of dynamics of information systems. Dynamics of Information Systems: Mathematical Foundation presents state-of-the art research and is intended for graduate students and researchers interested in some of the most recent discoveries in information theory and dynamical systems. Scientists in other disciplines may also benefit from the applications of new developments to their own area of study.
In this paper, we construct a new distribution corresponding to a real noble gas as well as the equation of state for it.
