Abstract

This paper considers proof-theoretic semantics for necessity within Dummett’s and Prawitz’s framework. Inspired by a system of Pfenning’s and Davies’s, the language of intuitionist logic is extended by a higher order operator which captures a notion of validity. A notion of relative necessary is defined in terms of it, which expresses a necessary connection between the assumptions and the conclusion of a deduction.
