Title
Characterizing Frame Definability in Team Semantics via the Universal Modality
Abstract
Let ML(u(+)) denote the fragment of modal logic extended with the universal modality in which the universal modality occurs only positively. We characterize the definability of ML(u(+)) in the spirit of the well-known Goldblatt-Thomason theorem. We show that an elementary class F of Kripke frames is definable in ML(u(+)) if and only if F is closed under taking generated subframes and bounded morphic images, and reflects ultrafilter extensions and finitely generated subframes. In addition, we initiate the study of modal frame definability in team-based logics. We show that, with respect to frame definability, the logics ML(u(+)), modal logic with intuitionistic disjunction, and (extended) modal dependence logic all coincide. Thus we obtain Goldblatt-Thomason -style theorems for each of the logics listed above.
