Modal logic

Epistemic modal logic

Epistemic modal logic is a subfield of modal logic that is concerned with reasoning about knowledge. While epistemology has a long philosophical tradition dating back to Ancient Greece, epistemic logic is a much more recent development with applications in many fields, including philosophy, theoretical computer science, artificial intelligence, economics and linguistics. While philosophers since Aristotle have discussed modal logic, and Medieval philosophers such as Avicenna, Ockham, and Duns Scotus developed many of their observations, it was C. I. Lewis who created the first symbolic and systematic approach to the topic, in 1912. It continued to mature as a field, reaching its modern form in 1963 with the work of Kripke. (Wikipedia).

Logic: The Structure of Reason

As a tool for characterizing rational thought, logic cuts across many philosophical disciplines and lies at the core of mathematics and computer science. Drawing on Aristotle’s Organon, Russell’s Principia Mathematica, and other central works, this program tracks the evolution of logic, be

Modal logic formalization of chess

In this video I explain modal logic using the example of the legal configurations of a board game. Kripke semantic and Kripke frames are discussed. The relation to Temporal and Doxastic logics are motivated. Here's the formal logic text from the video: https://gist.github.com/Nikolaj-K/174

SYN124 - The Function of the Verb - Mood and Modality

In this final E-Lecture of the series functional aspects of the verb, Prof. Handke discusses the notions of mood and modality. He exemplifies the rudimentary mood system in PDE and discusses the three modlities, dynamic, deontic, and epistemic in detail.
