Abstract

Buszkowski (Logical Aspects of Computational Linguistics, 2014 [8]) defines an interpretation of FL without 1 in its version without empty antecedents of sequents (employed in type grammars) and applies this interpretation to prove some general results on the complexity of substructural logics and the generative capacity of type grammars. Here this interpretation is extended for nonassociative logics (also with structural rules), logics with 1, logics with distributive laws for \(\wedge ,\vee \), logics with unary modalities, and multiplicative fragments.
