Establish that is reflexive and euclidean and use reflexivity to prove that o is in W. Then show is universal as follows. Now we are ready to show that R meets the corresponding condition for a wide range of axioms of modal logic.

Exercise 16.1 According to the i Transfer Theorem of Section 15.7, we need show only that rS is complete for trS-models, that is, tS-models that obey (r).

It follows then that the rule for adding 5-arrows to a diagram looks like this: It is easy to overlook 5-arrows that must be added to a tree; however, there is a simple rule about where they go.

Since all modal logics we discuss are extensions of K, (I) is provable in all modal logics, and so there is no need for adding (I) as an independent axiom to K. It follows that K is already adequate for I-validity, so no new axiom is required. One fairly obvious feature of earlier than is transitivity.

Since ∫(P)t is shorthand for ¬x∫(Px)(t), we can use (¬) to work out the semantical behavior of ∫(P)t. ∫(P)t says that what t refers to has a certain property, namely, of being necessarily P. This means that the referent of t ought to fall into the extension of P in all worlds accessible from our own. /UCR2 /Default /Type /Page << /Length 383 /Filter [ /ASCII85Decode /FlateDecode ] >> EXERCISE *9.1 Prove (~R).
