World–Time Indices #
A WorldTimeIndex is a (world, time) pair used as a context of evaluation
for intensional, dynamic, modal, and tense semantics. This is the
Lewis/Kaplan-style "index of evaluation" with world and temporal
coordinates only — not the full Kratzer parthood-structured situation
(see Core.Logic.Intensional.Situations) and not the Pearl/Halpern
partial valuation (see Core.Causal.Situation).
The name WorldTimeIndex is preferred over Situation to disambiguate
from the two more substantive Situation types in those neighbouring
namespaces.
A world–time index: a (world, time) pair used as a context of evaluation in intensional, dynamic, modal, and tense semantics.
This is the Lewis/Kaplan "index" — a coordinate tuple as point of
evaluation, abstracting from the spatial/parthood structure of true
Kratzer situations (see Core.Logic.Intensional.Situations).
- world : W
The world coordinate
- time : Time
