Abstract

We present a doxastic logic for multi-agent systems with public group announcements. Beliefs are represented using belief bases and a dynamic of trust is introduced in order to handle belief change under contradictory announcements. We provide a complete axiomatization for this logic and illustrate its expressive power with a simple example.
