Abstract

We present a tableau-based calculus for the finite and infinite valued Post logics, well suited for automated deduction. We use a possible world semantics and a prefixed tableau calculus based on it. The formula prefixes contain arithmetical expressions and variables. The world-information is handled by solving constraints which express ordering problems. Some hints of future work are given.
