Maximally paraconsistent three-valued logics

TLDR
This paper introduces the strongest possible notion of maximal paraconsistency, and investigates it in the context of logics that are based on deterministic or non-deterministic three-valued matrices.
Abstract
Maximality is a desirable property of paraconsistent logics, motivated by the aspiration to tolerate inconsistencies, but at the same time retain from classical logic as much as possible. In this paper, we introduce the strongest possible notion of maximal paraconsistency, and investigate it in the context of logics that are based on deterministic or non-deterministic three-valued matrices. We first show that most of the logics that are based on properly non-deterministic three-valued matrices are not maximally paraconsistent. Then we show that in contrast, in the deterministic case all the natural three-valued paraconsistent logics are maximal. This includes well-known three-valued paraconsistent logics like P1, LP, J3, PAC and SRM3, as well as any extension of them obtained by enriching their languages with extra three-valued connectives.

Maximal and Premaximal Paraconsistency in the Framework of Three-Valued Semantics

TL;DR: This paper shows that all reasonable paraconsistent logics based on three-valued deterministic matrices are maximal in the authors' strong sense, and investigates the strongest possible notion of maximal paraconsistency, which is investigated in the context of logics that are based on deterministic or non-deterministicThree-valued matrices.

A Note on Freedom from Detachment in the Logic of Paradox

TL;DR: It is shown that the logic LP cannot dene a binary connective obeying detachment in the sense that every valuation satisfying ' and ' also satises , except trivially, as a corollary of a more general result concerning variable-sharing.

Paraconsistent constructive logic with strong negation as a contraction-free relevant logic

TL;DR: The notion of strong negation was introduced by Nelson's constructive logic with negation N4 (N4) as mentioned in this paper, an axiomatic expansion of the negation-free fragment of the intuitionistic propositional calculus (Rasiowa, 1974, Chapter X) by a unary logical connective.

On Strong Maximality of Paraconsistent Finite-Valued Logics

TL;DR: This paper introduces a new, strong notion of maximal paraconsistency, which is based on possible extensions of the consequence relation of a logic, and investigates this notion in the framework of finite-valued paraconsistent logics.

Propositional and Predicate Logics of Incomplete Information

TL;DR: This work imposes rationality conditions on the semantics of the connectives of the propositional logic, and proves that Kleene’s logic is the maximal sublogic to which the standard optimization rules apply, thereby justifying this design choice.
