We give an answer to this question for the five monotonic consequence relations $st$, $ss$, $tt$, $ss\\cap tt$, and $ts$, when the connectives are negation, conjunction, and disjunction. For $ts$ and $ss\\cap tt$ the answer is trivial (no scheme works), and for $ss$ and $tt$ it is straightforward (they are the collapsible schemes, in which the middle value acts like one of the classical values). For $st$, the schemes in question are the Boolean normal schemes that are either monotonic or collapsible.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-12-26T12:53:37.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "03B05", "03B47", "03B50" ], "keywords": [ "classical logic", "three-valued presentations", "middle value acts", "monotonic consequence relations", "boolean normal schemes" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
