DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/OLS/33/">Sem
 isimplicity\, Glivenko theorems\, and the excluded middle</a>\nby Adam Př
 enosil (Vanderbilt University) as part of Online logic seminar\n\n\nAbstra
 ct\nThere are at least three different ways to obtain classical propositio
 nal logic from intuitionistic propositional logic. Firstly\, it is the ext
 ension of intuitionistic logic by the law of the excluded middle (LEM). Se
 condly\, it is related to intuitionistic logic by the double-negation tran
 slation of Glivenko. Finally\, the algebraic models of classical logic are
  precisely the semisimple algebraic models of intuitionistic logic (i.e. B
 oolean algebras are precisely the semisimple Heyting algebras). We show ho
 w to formulate the equivalence between the LEM and semisimplicity\, and be
 tween what we might call the Glivenko companion and the semisimple compani
 on of a logic\, at an appropriate level of generality. This equivalence wi
 ll subsume several existing Glivenko-like theorems\, as well as some new o
 nes. It also provides a useful technique for describing the semisimple sub
 varieties of a given variety of algebras. This is joint work with Tomáš 
 Lávička\, building on previous work by James Raftery.\n
