On the Strong Completeness of Åqvist’s Dyadic Deontic Logic G

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 5076))

Abstract

Åqvist’s dyadic deontic logic G, which aims at providing an axiomatic characterization of Hansson’s seminal system DSDL3 for conditional obligation, is shown to be strongly complete with respect to its intended modelling.
