Abstract

This paper is part of a general project of developing a systematic and algebraic proof theory for nonclassical logics. Generalizing our previous work on intuitionistic-substructural axioms and single-conclusion (hyper)sequent calculi, we define a hierarchy on Hilbert axioms in the language of classical linear logic without exponentials. We then give a systematic procedure to transform axioms up to the level \({\mathcal P}_3'\) of the hierarchy into inference rules in multiple-conclusion (hyper)sequent calculi, which enjoy cut-elimination under a certain condition. This allows a systematic treatment of logics which could not be dealt with in the previous approach. Our method also works as a heuristic principle for finding appropriate rules for axioms located at levels higher than \({\mathcal P}_3'\). The case study of Abelian and Łukasiewicz logic is outlined.
