TOWARDS A STRONGER NOTION OF TRANSLATION BETWEEN LOGICS

Abstract

The concept of translation between logics was originally introduced in order to prove the consistency of a logic system in terms of the consistency of another logic system. The idea behind this is to interpret (or to encode) a logic into another one. In this survey we address the following question: Which logical properties a (strong) logic translation should preserve? Several approaches to the concept of translation between logics are discussed and analyzed.
