Simple Conditionals with Constrained Right Weakening

Abstract

In this paper we introduce and investigate a very basic semantics for conditionals that can be used to define a broad class of conditional reasoning. We show that it encompasses the most popular kinds of conditional reasoning developed in logic-based KR. It turns out that the semantics we propose is appropriate for a structural analysis of those conditionals that do not satisfy the property of Right Weakening. We show that it can be used for the further development of an analysis of the notion of relevance in conditional reasoning.
