Abstract

Using substructural and modal logics as case studies, a uniform method is presented for transforming cut-free hypersequent proofs into sequent calculus proofs satisfying relaxations of the subformula property. As a corollary we prove decidability for a large class of commutative substructural logics with contraction and mingle, and get a simple syntactic proof of a well known result: the sequent calculus for \(\mathbf {S5}\) is analytic.
