Abstract

Not all logical systems can be captured using algebras. We see this in classical logic (formalized by Boolean algebras) and many-valued logics (like Lukasiewicz logic with MV-algebras). Even quantum mechanics, initially formalized with orthomodular lattices, benefits from a simpler approach using just partially ordered sets (posets). This paper explores how logical connectives are introduced in poset-based logics. Building on prior work by the authors, we delve deeper into "dynamic" logics where truth values can change over time. We consider time sets with a preference relation and propositions whose truth depends on time. Tense operators, introduced by J.Burgess and extended for various logics, become a valuable tool. This paper proposes several approaches to this topic, aiming to inspire a further stream of research.
