Abstract

In this paper, we introduce justification counterparts of distributed knowledge logics. Our justification logics include explicit knowledge operators of the form [[t]] iF and , which are interpreted respectively as "t is a justification that agent i accepts for F", and "t is a justification that all agents implicitly accept for F". We present Kripke style models and prove the completeness theorem. Finally, we give a semantical proof of the realization theorem. © 2012 Springer-Verlag.
