Abstract:
Abstract We study the symbolic model checking problem against public announcement protocol logic (PAPL), featuring protocols with public announcements, arbitrary public announcements and group announcements. Technically, symbolic models are Kripke models whose accessibility relations are presented as programs described in a dynamic logic style with propositional assignments. We highlight the relevance of such symbolic models and show that the symbolic model checking problem against PAPL is A$_{\textrm{pol}}$Exptime-complete as soon as announcement protocols allow for either arbitrary announcem

Abstract:
Public announcement logic is an extension of multiagent epistemic logic with dynamic operators to model the informational consequences of announcements to the entire group of agents. We propose an extension of public announcement logic with a dynamic modal operator that expresses what is true after any announcement: ⋄φ expresses that there is a truthful announcement ψ after which φ is true. This logic gives a perspective on Fitch's knowability issues: For which formulas φ, does it hold that φ → ⋄Kφ?

Beliefs need not be truthful, because announcements already made may not yet have been received. As announcements are true when sent, certain message sequences can be ruled

We first show that the $cut$ rule is admissible in $\textbf{GDEL}$ and show that $\textbf{GDEL}$ is sound and complete for Kripke semantics. Moreover, we show that the basis of $\textbf{GDEL}$ is extended from modal logic K to other familiar modal logics

As epistemic goals may involve some agents remaining ignorant, counter-announcements may preclude coalitions from reaching their goals. We study the relative expressivity of GAL and CAL a

Abstract:
On 29th January 2023, the National Examination Council of Tanzania (NECTA) stopped announcing the best-performing schools and students. The announcement drew mixed reactions (some applauding or criticising) among education stakeholders. Using a descriptive survey design, this quantitative study specifically identified reasons for the applause or criticism; compared statistically the identified reasons; and the private and public education stakeholders on the announcement. The questionnaires were used to collect data from 500 stakeholders who were selected through a multi-stage sampling techniq

Abstract:
Abstract We propose dynamic extensions to the framework of Social Epistemic Logic introduced in Logic in the Community (Seligman et al., pp. 178–188, 2011). One of them introduces a notion of a semi-public announcement made by an aware agent and only transmitted to this agent’s social connections. Another extension along the epistemic dimension of the framework contains separate ‘sending’ and ‘reading’ modalities that allow for a more realistic asynchronous spreading of messages in a social network. Finally, we briefly discuss an extension along the ‘social’ dimension of the framework, which i

Abstract:
In this master's thesis we present a modal logic for Applied pi which characterises observational equivalence on processes. The motivation is similar to that of Applied pi itself, namely generality: the logic can be adapted to a particular application simply by defining a suitable equational theory on terms.<br /> <br />As a first step towards the logic for Applied pi, a strong version of static equivalence on frames is introduced in which term reductions are observable in addition to equality on terms. We argue that the strong version is meaningful in applications and give two ref

Abstract:
In the context of developing a human-centered and modern city, the implementation of comprehensive public transport reforms in Yerevan, remains a priority task. Despite the announcement of this ambitious project back in 2017, its practical execution requires urgent solutions from the city government. In other words, we can state that this process is being unnecessarily and illogically delayed; it has already entered its eighth year, yet the final result is still not visible. Where have we failed? Why is it still impossible to provide safe and decent transport services to Yerevan’s residents an

Abstract:
Despite pushback from regulatory and non-governmental entities, Meta’s control over the public narrative remains consistent. Using a method of corpus analysis, this study investigated the company’s sociotechnical imaginary as it circulates in media artifacts (428) responding to Zuckerberg’s 2021 Metaverse announcement. Analysis of how these artifacts respond to issues related to identity, security, and connectivity revealed that the majority amplify Meta’s corporate messaging, empowering its elite discourse and solidifying its socio-technological power. As it relates to user privacy, however,

Abstract:
The idea of conserving biodiversity has become central to the very meaning of biological conservation---in the public imagination and for conservation organizations worldwide. Identification of conservation with biodiversity conservation owes extensively to the idea that warrant for biodiversity's conservation is anchored in the empirical thesis that biodiversity causally determines ecosystem functioning, and thereby, somehow, important ecosystem services. This idea has fueled an enormous research program dedicated to producing the requisite causal evidence. This essay first reviews the data t

Abstract:
In this chapter, I use methods drawn from literary analysis to bear on artificial scarcity and explore how literary and legal storytelling engages in scarcity mongering. I find three particular narrative strategies calculated to compel a conclusion in favor of propertization: the spectacle of need, the diversionary tactic, and the rallying cry. First, I unpack the spectacle of need and its diversionary aspects through several literary accounts of scarcity and starvation. I juxtapose Franz Kafka's “A Hunger Artist,” a story explicitly centered on a wasting body, with J.M. Coetzee's The Life and

Introduction: The number of children taken into care by German youth welfare offices has been increasing for years as a result of changes in the law according to publicly known endangerments to child welfare. Due to an increase in petitions from non-German parents to the European Parliament's Petitions Committee against administrative acts that they felt to be arbitrary (e.g. taking into care), the European Parliament repeatedly (2007, 2018, 2022, 2023) dealt with the processes in the German Youth Welfare Office.
