Unifying Sequent Systems for Gödel-Löb Provability Logic via Syntactic Transformations

Authors: Tim S. Lyon

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 326, 33rd EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2025)

Abstract
We demonstrate the inter-translatability of proofs between the most prominent sequent-based formalisms for Gödel-Löb provability logic. In particular, we consider Sambin and Valentini’s sequent system GL_{seq}, Shamkanov’s non-wellfounded and cyclic sequent systems GL_∞ and GL_{circ}, Poggiolesi’s tree-hypersequent system CSGL, and Negri’s labeled sequent system G3GL. Shamkanov provided proof-theoretic correspondences between GL_{seq}, GL_∞, and GL_{circ}, and Goré and Ramanayake showed how to transform proofs between CSGL and G3GL, however, the exact nature of proof transformations between the former three systems and the latter two systems has remained an open problem. We solve this open problem by showing how to restructure tree-hypersequent proofs into an end-active form and introduce a novel linearization technique that transforms such proofs into linear nested sequent proofs. As a result, we obtain a new proof-theoretic tool for extracting linear nested sequent systems from tree-hypersequent systems, which yields the first cut-free linear nested sequent calculus LNGL for Gödel-Löb provability logic. We show how to transform proofs in LNGL into a certain normal form, where proofs repeat in stages of modal and local rule applications, and which are translatable into GL_{seq} and G3GL proofs. These new syntactic transformations, together with those mentioned above, establish full proof-theoretic correspondences between GL_{seq}, GL_∞, GL_{circ}, CSGL, G3GL, and LNGL while also giving (to the best of the author’s knowledge) the first constructive proof mappings between structural (viz. labeled, tree-hypersequent, and linear nested sequent) systems and a cyclic sequent system.

Taking Bi-Intuitionistic Logic First-Order: A Proof-Theoretic Investigation via Polytree Sequents

Authors: Tim S. Lyon, Ian Shillito, and Alwen Tiu

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 326, 33rd EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2025)

Abstract
It is well-known that extending the Hilbert axiomatic system for first-order intuitionistic logic with an exclusion operator, that is dual to implication, collapses the domains of models into a constant domain. This makes it an interesting problem to find a sound and complete proof system for first-order bi-intuitionistic logic with non-constant domains that is also conservative over first-order intuitionistic logic. We solve this problem by presenting the first sound and complete proof system for first-order bi-intuitionistic logic with increasing domains. We formalize our proof system as a polytree sequent calculus (a notational variant of nested sequents), and prove that it enjoys cut-elimination and is conservative over first-order intuitionistic logic. A key feature of our calculus is an explicit eigenvariable context, which allows us to control precisely the scope of free variables in a polytree structure. Semantically this context can be seen as encoding a notion of Scott’s existence predicate for intuitionistic logic. This turns out to be crucial to avoid the collapse of domains and to prove the completeness of our proof system. The explicit consideration of the variable context in a formula sheds light on a previously overlooked dependency between the residuation principle and the existence predicate in the first-order setting, which may help to explain the difficulty in designing a sound and complete proof system for first-order bi-intuitionistic logic.

Simple Derivation Systems for Proving Sufficient Completeness of Non-Terminating Term Rewriting Systems

Authors: Kentaro Kikuchi and Takahito Aoto

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 213, 41st IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS 2021)

Abstract
A term rewriting system (TRS) is said to be sufficiently complete when each function yields some value for any input. Proof methods for sufficient completeness of terminating TRSs have been well studied. In this paper, we introduce a simple derivation system for proving sufficient completeness of possibly non-terminating TRSs. The derivation system consists of rules to manipulate a set of guarded terms, and sufficient completeness of a TRS holds if there exists a successful derivation for each function symbol. We also show that variations of the derivation system are useful for proving special cases of local sufficient completeness of TRSs, which is a generalised notion of sufficient completeness.

Confluence of Orthogonal Nominal Rewriting Systems Revisited

Authors: Takaki Suzuki, Kentaro Kikuchi, Takahito Aoto, and Yoshihito Toyama

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 36, 26th International Conference on Rewriting Techniques and Applications (RTA 2015)

Abstract
Nominal rewriting systems (Fernandez, Gabbay, Mackie, 2004; Fernandez, Gabbay, 2007) have been introduced as a new framework of higher-order rewriting systems based on the nominal approach (Gabbay, Pitts, 2002; Pitts, 2003), which deals with variable binding via permutations and freshness conditions on atoms. Confluence of orthogonal nominal rewriting systems has been shown in (Fernandez, Gabbay, 2007). However, their definition of (non-trivial) critical pairs has a serious weakness so that the orthogonality does not actually hold for most of standard nominal rewriting systems in the presence of binders. To overcome this weakness, we divide the notion of overlaps into the self-rooted and proper ones, and introduce a notion of alpha-stability which guarantees alpha-equivalence of peaks from the self-rooted overlaps. Moreover, we give a sufficient criterion for uniformity and alpha-stability. The new definition of orthogonality and the criterion offer a novel confluence condition effectively applicable to many standard nominal rewriting systems. We also report on an implementation of a confluence prover for orthogonal nominal rewriting systems based on our framework.

Proving Strong Normalisation via Non-deterministic Translations into Klop's Extended lambda-Calculus

Authors: Kentaro Kikuchi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 23, Computer Science Logic 2013 (CSL 2013)

Abstract
In this paper we present strong normalisation proofs using a technique of non-deterministic translations into Klop's extended lambda-calculus. We first illustrate the technique by showing strong normalisation of a typed calculus that corresponds to natural deduction with general elimination rules. Then we study its explicit substitution version, the type-free calculus of which does not satisfy PSN with respect to reduction of the original calculus; nevertheless it is shown that typed terms are strongly normalising with respect to reduction of the explicit substitution calculus. In the same framework we prove strong normalisation of Sørensen and Urzyczyn's cut-elimination system in intuitionistic sequent calculus.
