DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/NCLogic/7/">
 Lewis meets Brouwer\, or perhaps Heyting</a>\nby Tadeusz Litak (Friedrich-
 Alexander-University of Erlangen-Nürnberg) as part of Nonclassical Logic 
 Webinar\n\n\nAbstract\nThis talk is an introduction to what one might call
  the Heyting-Lewis calculus of strict implication over the intuitionistic 
 propositional base\; the names "constructive strict implication" or "Brouw
 er-Lewis implication/calculus" have also been used. The corresponding clas
 s of algebras can be seen as the fusion of Heyting algebras and weak Heyti
 ng algebras (Celani and Jansana) over the shared bounded lattice reduct. (
 Super)intuitionistic modal logics with unary box are a limiting case\, but
  in the intuitionistic setting there are many examples where strict implic
 ation is not reducible to box. Its variants arise\, e.g.\, in the context 
 of preservativity in Heyting Arithmetic (where it was first invented by Vi
 sser)\, in the inhabitation logic of simple type theory extended with Hask
 ell-style arrows\, and in a generalization of Intuitionistic Epistemic Log
 ic of Artemov and Protopopescu.  The move to the intuitionistic propositio
 nal base also throws interesting light on the complex fate of Lewis' origi
 nal systems. The Heyting-Lewis calculus enjoys a natural Kripke semantics 
 (first studied by Iemhoff and coauthors)\, which also allows defining an a
 ppropriate notion of descriptive frame and Esakia-style dualities. Further
 more\, one can follow the Wolter-Zakharyaschev idea of generalizing the G
 ödel-McKinsey-Tarski translation\, reducing the metatheory of Heyting-Lew
 is logics to suitable bimodal logics over the classical propositional base
 \, obtaining a suitable variant of the Blok-Esakia theorem\, and (re)provi
 ng many correspondence\, completeness\, decidability and fmp results in an
  uniform way. However\, it seems that ultimately one will have to drop one
  of the axioms\, losing the natural Kripke semantics. In the final part of
  the talk\, I am going to discuss alternative semantics for the weakened s
 ystem and its position in the broader landscape of intuitionistic logics w
 ith an additional implication-like connective. This talk involves joint wo
 rk with Albert Visser (Utrecht University)\, Jim de Groot and Dirk Pattins
 on (ANU)\, Igor Sedlar and the Prague group\, and Miriam Polzer (Google).\
