Abstract

A unifying semantic framework for 2 and 3-valued autoepistemic logics is introduced. For instance, the logics introduced in [8] and [2] belong to this framework. All the logics that derive from the framework enjoy the usual stability properties of autoepistemic logics.

A new logic (called κ 2-logic) is derived from the schema. It is shown that κ 2-logic solves a number of problems affecting existing logics. Finally, it will be shown that a very large class of theories has a least stable expansion in κ 2-logic. We show how the least stable expansion can be obtained through a fixpoint construction.
