Representation Theorems for Multiple Belief Changes

Abstract

This paper aims to develop further and systemize the theory of multiple belief change based on the previous work on the package contraction, developed by [Fuhrmann and Hansson 1994] and the general belief changes, developed by [Zhang 1996]. Two main representation theorems for general contractions are given, one is based on partial meet models and the other on nice-ordered partition models. An additional principle, called Limit Postulate, for the general belief changes is introduced which specifies properties of infinite belief changes. The results of this paper provides a foundation for investigating the connection between infinite nonmonotonic reasoning and multiple belief revision. 1
