Abstract

We propose a logic for describing the interaction between knowledge, preference, and the freedom to act, and their interactions with the norms of Priori and a Posteriori rationality, which we have argued for in previous work [3]. We then apply it to strategic games to characterise weak dominance and Nash equilibrium.
