Contribution & Novelties
The talk presents original results on inclusions between quantified provability logics, refining known theorems and providing new characterizations. The main contribution is a theorem giving necessary conditions for inclusions, and a necessary and sufficient condition for inclusions between sigma-1 quantified provability logics. This advances the understanding of how quantified provability logics depend on the underlying theory and its axiomatization.
