Glivenko like theorems in natural expansions of BCK‐logic
Roberto Cignoli, Antoni Torrell · Mathematical logic quarterly · 2004
Abstract The classical Glivenko theorem asserts that a propositional formula admits a classical proof if and only if its double negation admits an intuitionistic proof. By a natural expansion of the BCK‐logic with negation we understand an algebraizable logic whose language is an expansion of the language of BCK‐logic with negation by a family of connectives implicitly defined by equations and compatible with BCK‐congruences. Many of the logics in the current literature are natural expansions of BCK‐logic with negation. The validity of the analogous of Glivenko theorem in these logics is equivalent to the validity of a simple one‐variable formula in the language of BCK‐logic with negation.
