Abstract

In modern approaches to proof-theory (e.g.,[8]) natural-deduction (ND) proof systems are presented with general elimination-rules (GE-rules) [10], derived from a more general (re)formulation of Prawitz’s inversion principle [13]. The setting of such enterprises are usually intuitionistic (and occasionally classic), but also linear [7] propositional calculi.
