‘The Peak of Stupidity and ‘The Valley of Despair: HSE Economists Propose an Explanation for the Dunning–Kruger Effect
The Dunning–Kruger effect, which describes a sharp surge in self-confidence among beginners followed by an equally rapid decline as they gain experience, can be explained by the nature of the learning process and the acquisition of new knowledge. This conclusion was reached by Andrey Vorchik of the HSE Faculty of Economic Sciences together with independent researcher Murat Mamyshev. They developed a mathematical model of learning and demonstrated how subjective confidence is formed and changes as knowledge accumulates, as well as how teachers can reduce the ‘valley of despair’ experienced by learners.

Segerberg squares of modal logics and theories of relation algebras

P. 245–296.
Shehtman V. B.

We establish a natural translation from word rewriting systems to strictly positive polymodal logics. Thereby, the latter can be considered as a generalization of the former. As a corollary we obtain examples of undecidable finitely axiomatizable strictly positive normal modal logics. The translation has its counterpart on the level of proofs: we formulate a natural deep inference proof system for strictly positive logics generalizing derivations in word rewriting systems. We also make some observations and formulate open questions related to the theory of modal companions of superintuitionistic logics that was initiated by L.L. Maksimova and V.V. Rybakov.

The chapter contains an overview of results on products of propositional modal logics and related constructions: semiproducts, Segerberg squares, and others. We focus mainly on axiomatizations, finite model property, and decidability; we also sketch connections with classical and modal predicate logics. In some cases we give ideas of proofs, especially of those using games. ...

Отмеченное субординатное натуральное исчисление для базовой интуиционистской кондициональной логики
Zaitsev I., Логические исследования 2025 Т. 31 № 2 С. 143–168
This article presents a labeled Fitch-style natural deduction system, 𝓕IntCK, for the basic propositional intuitionistic conditional logic IntCK introduced by G.K. Olkhovikov. The logic IntCK serves as a correct intuitionistic counterpart to Chellas' minimal conditional logic CK, designed to accommodate Lewis' strong and weak counterfactual conditionals within a single framework. In order to do this, IntCK features two independent logical connectives, namely □→ and ◇→, ...

Two Types of Filtrations for wK4 and Its Relatives
Kudinov A., Shapirovsky I., Studia Logica 2025 P. 1–25
We study the finite model property of subframe logics with expressible transitive reflexive closure modality. For m > 0, let Lm be the logic defined by axiom ♦^{m+1}p → ♦p ∨ p. We construct quotient filtrations for the logics Lm, which implies that these logics and their tense counterparts have the finite model property. Then, we construct selective filtrations ...

Polynomial completeness and completeness of finite n-quasigroups
Chaplygina S., Alexy V. Galatenko, Quasigroups and Related Systems 2024 Vol. 32 No. 2 P. 207–223
Finite quasigroups and n-quasigroups are currently extensively utilized to implement various cryptographic functions. Cryptographic requirements lead to constraints imposed on quasigroups and n-quasigroups. In particular, V. A. Artamonov proposed using polynomially complete quasigroups. Polynomial completeness can be decided with the help of a criterion of J. Hagemann and C. Herrmann: a quasigroup is polynomially complete ...

Variations on the Kripke trick
Rybakov M., Shkatov D., Studia Logica 2025 Vol. 113 P. 1–48
In the early 1960s, to prove undecidability of monadic fragments of sublogics of the predicate modal logic QS5 that include the classical predicate logic QCl, Saul Kripke showed how a classical atomic formula with a binary predicate letter can be simulated by a monadic modal formula. We consider adaptations of Kripke's simulation, which we call the Kripke trick, to various modal ...

Algorithmic properties of modal and superintuitionistic logics of monadic predicates over finite Kripke frames
Rybakov M., Shkatov D., Journal of Logic and Computation 2025 Vol. 35 No. 2 Article exad078
We show that the monadic modal logic of a single Kripke frame with finitely many possible worlds, but possibly infinite domains, is decidable. This holds true even for monadic multimodal logics with equality, both if equality interpreted as identity and if equality interpreted as congruence. ...

Complexity function and complexity of validity of modal and superintuitionistic propositional logics

We consider the relationship between the algorithmic properties of the validity problem for a modal or superintuitionistic propositional logic and the size of the smallest Kripke countermodels for non-theorems of the logic. We establish the existence, for every degree of unsolvability, of a propositional logic whose validity problem belongs to the degree and whose every ...

On Strictly Positive Fragments of Modal Logics with Confluence
Kikot S., Kudinov A., Mathematics 2022 Vol. 10 No. 19 Article 3701
We axiomatize strictly positive fragments of modal logics with the confluence axiom. We consider unimodal logics such as K.2, D.2, D4.2 and S4.2 with unimodal confluence $\Diamond\Box p \to \Box\Diamond p$  as well as the products of modal logics in the set {K, D,  T, D4, S4}, which contain bimodal confluence $\Diamond_1\Box_2 p \to \Box_2\Diamond_1 p$.  We show that the impact ...

Nāgārjunian-Yogācārian Modal Logic versus Aristotelian Modal Logic
Шуман А. Н., Journal of Indian Philosophy 2021 Vol. 49 P. 467–498
There are two different modal logics: the logic T assuming contingency and the logic K = assuming logical determinism. In the paper, I show that the Aristotelian treatise On Interpretation (Περί ερμηνείας, De Interpretatione) has introduced some modal-logical relationships which correspond to T. In this logic, it is supposed that there are contingent events. The Nāgārjunian treatise Īśvara-kartṛtva-nirākṛtiḥ-viṣṇoḥ-ekakartṛtva-nirākaraṇa has introduced some modal-logical relationships which correspond ...

Modal logics with transitive closure: Completeness, decidability, filtration
Kikot S., Shapirovsky I., Zolin E., , in: Advances in Modal LogicVol. 13.: College Publications, 2020. P. 369–388.
We give a sufficient condition for Kripke completeness of modal logics that have the transitive closure modality. More precisely, we show that if a modal logic admits what we call definable filtration, then its enrichment with the transitive closure modality (and the corresponding axioms) is Kripke complete; in addition, the resulting logic has the finite ...

Semeiotic completeness in the theory of signs

Peirce aspired for the completeness of his logic cum the theory of signs in his 1903 Lowell Lectures and other late manuscripts. Semeiotic completeness states that everything that is a consequence in logical critic is derivable in speculative grammar. The present paper exposes the reasons why Peirce would fall short of establishing semeiotic completeness and ...

Local tabularity without transitivity
Shehtman V. B., Shapirovsky I., , in: Advances in Modal LogicVol. 11.: L.: College Publications, 2016. P. 520–534.
According to the classical result by Segerberg and Maksimova, a modal logic containing K4 is locally tabular iff it is of finite height. The notion of finite height can also be defined for logics, in which the master modality is expressible (‘pretransitive’ logics). We observe that any locally tabular logic is pretransitive of finite height. Then we prove some ...

Filtration Safe Operations on Frames
Kikot S., Shapirovsky I., Zolin E., , in: Advances in Modal Logic. Volume 10.: College Publications, 2014. P. 333–352.
Filtration is a standard tool for establishing the finite model property of modal logics. We consider logics and classes of frames that admit filtration, and identify some operations on them that preserve this property. In particular, the operation of adding the inverse or the transitive closure of a relation is shown to be safe in ...
