Kripke's semantics for modal logic involve what?

  • Mechanical Proofs

  • Quantum States

  • Algorithmic Processes

  • Possible Worlds

Answer

Possible worlds are central to Kripke's semantics for modal logic. Each possible world represents a complete and consistent state of affairs, and the accessibility relation between worlds captures the notion of possibility. Propositions are evaluated at each world, and their truth or falsity is determined relative to the information available in that world.
