Abstract

Given an intermediate propositional logic L (obtained by adding to intuitionistic logic INT a single axiom-scheme), a pseudo tableau system for L can be given starting from any intuitionistic tableau system and adding a rule which allows to insert in any line of a proof table suitable T-signed instances of the axiom-scheme. In this paper we study some sufficient conditions from which, given a well formed formula H, the search for these instances can be restricted to a suitable finite set of formulae related to H. We illustrate our techniques by means of some known logics, namely, the logic D of Dummett, the logics PR k (k≥1) of Nagata, the logics FIN m (m≥1), the logics G n (n≥1) of Gabbay and de Jongh, and the logic KP of Kreisel and Putnam
