Abstract

In Section 2.2 we gave prefixed tableau rules for several propositional modal logics. Now we extend these to deal with quantifiers. But we have considered two versions of quantifier semantics: varying domain and constant domain. Not surprisingly, these correspond to different versions of tableau rules for quantifiers. Also not surprisingly, the rules corresponding to constant domain semantics are somewhat simpler, so we will start with them.
