Abstract
We have studied the update operator ⊕ defined in [4] without tautologies and we have observed that satisfies an interesting property. This property is similar to one postulate proposed by AGM but, in this case for nonmonotonic logic and that we called WIS. Also, we consider other five additional basic properties about update programs and we show that ⊕ satisfies them. So, this work continues the analysis about the AGM postulates with respect to operator ⊕ under the refinated view that includes knowledge and beliefs that we began in a recent previous paper and that satisfies the WIS property for closed programs under tautologies.
