Abstract: A syntax transformation is presented that eliminates the modal logic operators from modal logic formulae by shifting the modal context information to the term level. The formulae in the transformed syntax can be brought into conjunctive normal form such that a clause based resolution calculus without any additional inference rule, but with special modal unification algorithms, can be defined. The method works for first-order modal logics with the two operators # and à and with constant-domain... (Update)

.... validity, which underly these systems, have been extended to intuitionistic logic and the modal logics K,K4,D,D4,T,S4, and S5 [17, 28, 29, 27]. On this basis the existing proof methods have been extended accordingly [18, 19] in order to develop a coherent theorem prover...

.... logic since this allows us to use the wealth of knowledge in first order theorem proving to mechanize modal deduction (see e.g. [17, 20, 12, 5]) Let FO n be the fragment of classical first order logic using at most n individual variables and no function symbols. Any modal...
