Kripke semantics


A Kripke frame (or simply a frame) is a pair (W,R) where W is a non-empty set whose elements are called worlds or possible worlds, R is a binary relationMathworldPlanetmath on W called the accessibility relation. When vRw, we say that w is accessible from v. A Kripke frame is said to have property P if R has the property P. For example, a symmetricPlanetmathPlanetmath frame is a frame whose accessibility relation is symmetric.

A Kripke model (or simply a model) M for a propositional logical system (classical, intuitionistic, or modal) Λ is a pair (,V), where :=(W,R) is a Kripke frame, and V is a function that takes each atomic formula of Λ to a subset of W. If wV(p), we say that p is true at world w. We say that M is a Λ-model based on the frame if M=(,V) is a model for the logic Λ.

Remark. Associated with each world w, we may also define a Boolean-valued valuation Vw on the set of all wff’s of Λ, so that Vw(p)=1 iff wV(p). In this sense, the Kripke semantics can be thought of as a generalizationPlanetmathPlanetmath of the truth-value semantics for classical propositional logic. The truth-value semantics is just a Kripke model based on a frame with one world. Conversely, given a collectionMathworldPlanetmath of valuations {VwwW}, we have model (,V) where wV(p) iff Vw(p)=1.

Since the well-formed formulas (wff’s) of Λ are uniquely readable, V may be inductively extended so it is defined on all wff’s. The following are some examples:

  • in classical propositional logicPlanetmathPlanetmath PLc, V(AB):=V(A)cV(B), where Sc:=W-S,

  • in the modal propositional logic K, V(A):=V(A), where S:={uuS}, and u:={wuRw}, and

  • in intuitionistic propositional logic PLi, V(AB):=(V(A)-V(B))#, where S#:=(S)c, and S:={uuRw,wS}.

Truth at a world can now be defined for wff’s: a wff A is true at world w if wV(A), and we write

MwA  or  wA

if no confusion arises. If wV(A), we write M⊧̸wA. The three examples above can be now interpreted as:

  • wAB means wA implies wB in PLc,

  • wA means for all worlds v with wRv, we have vA in K, and

  • wAB means for all worlds v with wRv, vA implies vB in PLi.

A wff A is said to be valid

  • in a model M if A in true at all possible worlds w in M,

  • in a frame if A is valid in all models M based on ,

  • in a collection 𝒞 of frames if A is valid in all frames in 𝒞.

We denote

MA,A,or  𝒞A

if A is valid in M,, or 𝒞 respectively.

A logic Λ, equipped with a deductive system, is sound in 𝒞 if

A  implies  𝒞A.

Here, A means that wff A is a theoremMathworldPlanetmath deducibleMathworldPlanetmath from the deductive system of Λ. Conversely, if

𝒞A  implies  A,

we say that Λ is completePlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath in 𝒞.
