Epistemic Logics of Structured Intensional Groups
share
Epistemic logics of intensional groups lift the assumption that membership in a group of agents is common knowledge. Instead of being represented directly as a set of agents, intensional groups are represented by a property that may change its extension from world to world. Several authors have considered versions of the intensional group framework where group-specifying properties are articulated using structured terms of a language, such as the language of Boolean algebras or of description logic. In this paper we formulate a general semantic framework for epistemic logics of structured intensional groups, develop the basic theory leading to completeness-via-canonicity results, and show that several frameworks presented in the literature correspond to special cases of the general framework.
