Hence, induction, revision and evolution have become a new territory for formal exploration. Focusing on this challenge, the perspective of this book series differs fromthatoftraditionallogics,whichconcernsconceptsanddeduction. The series welcomes proposals for textbooks, research monographs, and edited volumes,andwillbeusefulforallresearchers,graduatestudents,andprofessionals interestedinthefield.

Descriptionlogicsconcernconceptswhichanddeductioncomposeofgenerallogics. Induction and belief revision are the topics of general logics and philosoph- icallogics,andevolutionisanewresearchareaincomputerscience.Toformalize induction,revisionandevolutionisagoalofthisseries.

Copernicus’ heliocentric theory is a revision of the Tychonicsystem;thetheoryofrelativityisarevisionoftheclassicaltheoryofmove- ment;thequantumtheoryisarevisionofclassicalmechanics;etc..TheAGMpostu- lates is a set of conditions a reasonable revision operator should satisfy. Professor Li proposed a calculus for first-order logic, called R-calculus, which is sound and completewithrespecttomaximalconsistentsubsets.R-calculushasseveralvariants which can be used in other logics, such as nonmonotonic logics, can propose new problemsinclassicallogics,andwillbeusedinbigdata. Popper proposed in his book The Logic of Scientific Discovery that a scien- tificdiscoveryconsistsoffouraspects:conjecture,theory,refutation,andrevision. Somescientificphilosophersrefutedthatareasonableconjectureshouldcomefrom induction. Hence, induction, revision and evolution becomes a new territory to be discoveredinaformalway. An induction process is from particular statements to universal statements. A typical example is the mathematical induction, which is a set of nontrivial axioms in Peano arithmetic which makes Peano arithmetic incomplete with respect to the standardmodelofPeanoarithmetic.Alogicforinductionisneededtoguidedata- mininginartificialintelligence.Data-miningisacanonicalinductionprocess,which minesrulesfromdata.

Simply speaking, predicate modal logic is an evolution of propositional modal logic and predicate logic, and there are many new problems in predicate modal logic to be solved, such as the constant domain semantics,thevariantdomainsemantics,etc.. The series should focus on formal representation, deduction, theories or meta- theoriesofinduction,revisionandevolution,wheretheinductionisofthefirst-level, the revision is of the second-level, and the evolution is of the third level, because theinductionisattheformulastratum,therevisionisatthetheorystratum,andthe evolutionisatthelogicstratum.
