Abstract

Craig interpolation theorem implies that the derivability of X,X′ Y′ implies existence of an interpolant I in the common language of X and X′ Y′ such that both X I and I,X′ Y′ are derivable. For classical logic this extends to X,X′ Y,Y′, but for intuitionistic logic there are counterexamples. We present a version true for intuitionistic propositional logic, and more complicated version for the predicate case
