Today we're discussing a paper by visiting PhD student Marcel Kertels (Bielefeld): 'The Probability of Indicative Conditionals'.

[Andrew Tedder @AJTedder]

New paper alert! There's a fun class of logics (close to connexive logics) which require that certain implication formulas (such as p->~p) are unsatisfiable. In the paper I study partially ordered models which have an operation ~ interpreting such negations: Kapsner complements!
