Abstract
In the previous paper with a similar title :311–344, 2018), we presented a family of propositional epistemic logics whose languages are extended by two ingredients: by quantification over modal operators or over agents of knowledge and by predicate symbols that take modal operators as arguments. We denoted this family by \}\). The family \}\) is defined on the basis of a decidable higher-order generalization of the loosely guarded fragment of first-order logic. And since HO-LGF is decidable, we obtain the decidability of logics of \}\). In this paper we construct an alternative family of decidable propositional epistemic logics whose languages include ingredients and. Denote this family by \}\). Now we will use another decidable fragment of first-order logic: the two variable fragment of first-order logic with two equivalence relations +2E) [the decidability of FO\+2E was proved in Kieroński and Otto :729–765, 2012)]. The families \}\) and \}\) differ in the expressive power. In particular, we exhibit classes of epistemic sentences considered in works on first-order modal logic demonstrating this difference.
