Theorem3: ( A p ^ A q ^ A R ( p ^ q , p ) ^ A R ( q ^ p , q ) ) → A ( p ^ q ) Proof: The antecedent holds iff Vj(iRpj^pj)AVj(iR q J^qj)^ ΛiVj(iR p ^ q j →(iRpj ^((pj ^qj)→pj))^ AiΛj(iRp^q→(iR q j ^((pj ^qj)→qj). The last two conjuncts can be reduced to AiΛj(iRp^qj→(iRpj^iR q j)) The antecedent remains true if we assume a j accessible by Rp^q where ┐ pr ┐q hold, since p does not hold in every j accessible by R p and q does not hold in every j accessible by R q .
