  1. Categorical Abstract Algebraic Logic: Prealgebraicity and Protoalgebraicity.George Voutsadakis - 2007 - Studia Logica 85 (2):215-249.
    Two classes of π are studied whose properties are similar to those of the protoalgebraic deductive systems of Blok and Pigozzi. The first is the class of N-protoalgebraic π-institutions and the second is the wider class of N-prealgebraic π-institutions. Several characterizations are provided. For instance, N-prealgebraic π-institutions are exactly those π-institutions that satisfy monotonicity of the N-Leibniz operator on theory systems and N-protoalgebraic π-institutions those that satisfy monotonicity of the N-Leibniz operator on theory families. Analogs of the correspondence property of (...)

  • Categorical Abstract Algebraic Logic: Bloom's Theorem for Rule-Based π-Institutions.George Voutsadakis - 2008 - Logic Journal of the IGPL 16 (3):233-248.
    A syntactic machinery is developed for π-institutions based on the notion of a category of natural transformations on their sentence functors. Rules of inference, similar to the ones traditionally used in the sentential logic framework to define the best known sentential logics, are, then, introduced for π-institutions. A π-institution is said to be rule-based if its closure system is induced by a collection of rules of inference. A logical matrix-like semantics is introduced for rule-based π-institutions and a version of Bloom's (...)

  • Algebraic semantics for deductive systems.W. J. Blok & J. Rebagliato - 2003 - Studia Logica 74 (1-2):153 - 180.
    The notion of an algebraic semantics of a deductive system was proposed in [3], and a preliminary study was begun. The focus of [3] was the definition and investigation of algebraizable deductive systems, i.e., the deductive systems that possess an equivalent algebraic semantics. The present paper explores the more general property of possessing an algebraic semantics. While a deductive system can have at most one equivalent algebraic semantics, it may have numerous different algebraic semantics. All of these give rise to (...)

  • Categorical Abstract Algebraic Logic: Models of π-Institutions.George Voutsadakis - 2005 - Notre Dame Journal of Formal Logic 46 (4):439-460.
    An important part of the theory of algebraizable sentential logics consists of studying the algebraic semantics of these logics. As developed by Czelakowski, Blok, and Pigozzi and Font and Jansana, among others, it includes studying the properties of logical matrices serving as models of deductive systems and the properties of abstract logics serving as models of sentential logics. The present paper contributes to the development of the categorical theory by abstracting some of these model theoretic aspects and results from the (...)

  • Categorical Abstract Algebraic Logic: Equivalential π-Institutions.George Voutsadakis - 2008 - Australasian Journal of Logic 6:1-24.
    The theory of equivalential deductive systems, as introduced by Prucnal and Wroński and further developed by Czelakowski, is abstracted to cover the case of logical systems formalized as π-Institutions. More precisely, the notion of an N-equivalence system for a given π-Institutions is introduced. A characterization theorem for N-equivalence systems, previously proven for N-parameterized equivalence systems, is revisited and a “transfer theorem” for N-equivalence systems is proven. For a π-Institutions I having an N-equivalence system, the maximum such system is singled out (...)
