From Classical to Normal Modal Logics

  • Chapter
Proof Theory of Modal Logic

Part of the book series: Applied Logic Series ((APLS,volume 2))

Abstract

Classical modal logics (Segerberg [27], Chellas [2]) are weaker than the well-known normal modal logics: The only rule that is common to all classical modal logics is
