Exploring the Landscape of Relational Syllogistic Logics
Published 3 Sep 2018 in math.LO, cs.CL, and cs.LO | (1809.00656v2)
Abstract: This paper explores relational syllogistic logics, a family of logical systems related to reasoning about relations in extensions of the classical syllogistic. These are all decidable logical systems. We prove completeness theorems and complexity results for a natural subfamily of relational syllogistic logics, parametrized by constructors for terms and for sentences.
