Abstract
Default Logic refers to a family of formalisms designed to carry out non-monotonic reasoning over a monotonic logic (in general, Classical First-Order or Propositional Logic). Traditionally, default logics have been defined and dealt with via syntactic consequence relations. Here, we introduce a family of default logics defined over modal logics. First, we present these default logics syntactically. Then, we elaborate on an algebraic counterpart. We do the latter by extending the notion of a modal algebra to acommodate for the main elements of default logics: defaults and extensions. Our algebraic treatment of default logics concludes with an algebraic completeness result. To our knowledge, our approach is novel, and it lays the groundwork for studying default logics from a dynamic logic perspective.
