Abstract

In this article, we define general normal forms for any logic that has propositional part and whose non-propositional connectives distribute over finite disjunctions. We do not require the non-propositional connectives to be closed on the set of formulas, so our normal forms cover logics with partial connectives too. We also show that most of the known normal forms in the literature are in fact particular cases of our general forms. These general normal forms are natural improvement of the distributive normal forms of J. Hintikka [6] and their modal analogues, e.g. [1] and [4].
