Labelled Sequents for Inquisitive First-Order Modal Logic

Abstract: In recent work, an inquisitive first-order modal logic has been proposed to reason about relations of modal dependence, including the notion of global supervenience (functional dependence among the extensions of predicates relative to a space of possibilities). At present, no proof system exists for this logic. We provide a complete labelled sequent calculus, extending a calculus developed by Litak and Sano for a weak version of inquisitive first-order logic. We prove strong completeness for the calculus and show that it enjoys desirable structural properties, including the invertibility of its rules and the admissibility of cut.
