  1. starting stub article on epistemic modal logic. Not an expert on modal logics in general, but I think David Corfield might know more about this topic.

    copied over the material from the previous existing “epistemic logic” (still visible in the page history of what is now epistemic logic > history)

    What happens with the use of \; in math mode. On the nForum it generates spaces, but on this nLab page it’s not working.

    What I see when looking through your source is un-escaped flow text in math mode (previously in the equation following here), where you would want a \text-environment. Behind the above link I have changed it to

      \mathbf{N} \colon \text{If}\; P \;\text{is a theorem, then so is}\; K P

    OK, thanks. But in my browser at least, it still has the ’If’ and ’PP’ run together.

    Maybe we can convince your browser to recognize \phantom{,} as code for whitespace:

    Please try again here, now coded as

      \text{If}\phantom{,}P\phantom{,}\text{is a theorem, then so is}\phantom{,}K P

    Another edit to the section now called ’Axioms for epistemic logic’. This is looking to convey a range of disagreement in the field of epistemic logic as to which of the standard axioms for the varieties of modal logic is appropriate to represent what is meant by ’know’.
