On Strong Maximality of Paraconsistent Finite-Valued Logics

TLDR
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.
Abstract
Maximality is a desirable property of paraconsistent logics, motivated by the aspiration to tolerate inconsistencies, but at the same time retain as much as possible from classical logic. In this paper we introduce a new, strong notion of maximal paraconsistency, which is based on possible extensions of the consequence relation of a logic. We investigate this notion in the framework of finite-valued paraconsistent logics, and show that for every $n>2$ there exists an extensive family of $n$-valued logics, each of which is maximally paraconsistent in our sense, is partial to classical logic, and is not equivalent to any $k$-valued logic with $k

Ideal Paraconsistent Logics

TL;DR: It is shown that every three-valued paraconsistent logic which is contained in classical logic, and has a proper implication connective, is ideal, and for every n > 2 there exists an extensive family of ideal n-valued logics.

What is an ideal logic for reasoning with inconsistency

TL;DR: A list of desirable properties of "ideal" logics for reasoning with inconsistency is formulated, a variety of logics that have these properties are identified, and a systematic way of constructing a family of such n-valued logics is provided.

Revisiting da Costa logic

TL;DR: It is proved that a restricted Hilbert system for daC, named DC, satisfies certain properties that help to show that this logic is not a maximal paraconsistent system.

A paraconsistent view on B and S5.

TL;DR: This paper shows that the famous modal logics B and S5, can be viewed as paraconsistent logics with several particularly useful properties.

A Useful Four-Valued Logic

TL;DR: It is argued that a sophisticated question-answering machine that has the capability of making inferences from its data base should employ a certain four-valued logic, the motivating consideration being that minor inconsistencies in its data should not be allowed to lead to irrelevant conclusions.

Logics of Formal Inconsistency

TL;DR: The Logicas da Inconsistencia Formal (LIFs) as mentioned in this paper form a classe of logicas paraconsistentes particularmente expressivas, in which a nocao meta-teonca de consistencia pode ser internalizada ao nivel da linguagem obje[c]to.
