Conditional logics can be used to express counterfactuals (Lewis) or forms of non-monotonic reasoning (Burgess). They are defined by adding to classical propositional logic a two-places modality, the conditional operator. Semantics for conditional logics can be uniformly defined in terms of neighbourhood semantics, generalising Lewis&#8217; sphere models. In this talk, I will show the relations between the conditional operator and a weaker modal operator, the comparative plausibility, that I will use to define analytic proof systems for some of the stronger logics in the conditional family. Then, I will illustrate how these proof systems can be implemented to design automated reasoning tools for conditional logics.<\/p>\n<p>This talk is based on joint work with Bjoern Lellmann, Nicola Olivetti, Gian Luca Pozzato and Stefano Pesce.<br \/>\nThe theorem prover is available here: <a href=\"http:\/\/193.51.60.97:8000\/tuclever\/\">http:\/\/193.51.60.97:8000\/tuclever\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Speaker: Marianna Girlando (University of Birmingham)<br \/>\nDate and Time: Thursday, April&nbsp;28th 2022, 16:30-18:00, Amsterdam time.<br \/>\nVenue: online.
