Real agents often have inconsistent beliefs.

Abstract
Real agents often have inconsistent beliefs. Yet, the AGM theory of belief change fails to model contradictory statements, without trivializing the belief set: the logic underlying the AGM model is classical and, thus, satisfies the explosion principle. Building on the work of Adam Grove, the present dissertation aims to provide a system of spheres that can allow the revision of inconsistent beliefs. The system of spheres will be constructed using the relevance logic B and will encompass both possible and impossible worlds.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
