It follows that there exist (continuum many) extensions of the Heyting-Brouwer logic $\\mathsf{HB}$ that are topologically incomplete. This result provides further insight into the long-standing open problem of Kuznetsov by yielding a negative solution of the reformulation of the problem from intermediate logics to extensions of $\\mathsf{HB}$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-04-13T06:30:48.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "03B55", "06D20", "06D22", "03B45", "06E15" ], "keywords": [ "bi-heyting algebras", "negative solution", "kuznetsovs problem", "intermediate logics", "complete members" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
