Polynomial-time checking of generalized Sahlqvist syntactic shape

The best known modal logics are axiomatized by Sahlqvist axioms, i.e., axioms of a syntactic shape which guarantees these formulas to have such excellent properties as canonicity and elementarity. Recently, the definition of Sahlqvist formulas has been generalized and extended from formulas in classical modal logic to inequalities (sequents) in a wide family of logics known as LE-logics. We introduce an algorithm which checks if a given inequality is generalized Sahlqvist in polynomial time.

Abstract

The best known modal logics are axiomatized by Sahlqvist axioms, i.e., axioms of a syntactic shape which guarantees these formulas to have such excellent properties as canonicity and elementarity. Recently, the definition of Sahlqvist formulas has been generalized and extended from formulas in classical modal logic to inequalities (sequents) in a wide family of logics known as LE-logics. We introduce an algorithm which checks if a given inequality is generalized Sahlqvist in polynomial time.
