Classical modal logic


In modal logic, a classical modal logic L is any modal logic containing the duality of the modal operators
which is also closed under the rule
Alternatively one can give a dual definition of L by which L is classical iff it contains
and is closed under the rule
The weakest classical system is sometimes referred to as E and is non-normal. Both algebraic and neighborhood semantics characterize familiar classical modal systems that are weaker than the weakest normal modal logic K.
Every regular modal logic is classical, and every normal modal logic is regular and hence classical.
