Abstract:

By a hybrid theory we mean a theory which is combined from different sub-theories. We present an approach to build-in hybrid theories into theorem provers. Our aim is to obtain a reasoner for a hybrid theory by a possibly simple combination of reasoners dedicated for its constituents. For this purpose we formulate sufficient criterions. This more detailed view on building-in theories is not covered by other general results [2, 3, 4, 7]. The technique described in [7] had to be refined. The method applies to different calculi. As an application we discuss the target language of the algebraic translation of multi-modal logic and extended multi-modal logic [5]. 1
