Semantics for sub-intuitionistic logics Joost J. Joosten Abstract: This paper exposes semantics for various sub-intuitionistic logics. The semantics transparently reflect how assumptions on the epistemic and cognitive abilities of the creative subject influences the underlying logic. One of these semantics is used to obtain a lower bound on the length of proofs of certain intuitionistic tautologies. Keywords: Intuitionistic logic; sub-intuitionistic logics; lower bounds; proof complexity; Kripke semantics
