Abstract

This book presents a uniform goal-directed algorithmic proof theory for a variety of logics. The logics involved have a wide range, and small variations in the goal-directed algorithm can take us from one logic to a completely different one.

  1. As a preliminary result, in [Gabbay et al., 1999] it is shown that a straightforward refinement of the goal-directed procedure gives an O(n logn)-space procedure for intuitionistic implication/negation fragment, the optimal space upper bound found so far.
