Abstract: This paper presents the logic QRC, which is a strictly positive fragment of quantified modal logic. The intended reading of the diamond modality is that of consistency of a formal theory. Predicate symbols are interpreted as parametrized axiomatizations. We prove arithmetical soundness of the logic QRC with respect to this arithmetical interpretation. Quantified provability logic is known to be undecidable. However, the undecidability proof cannot be performed in our signature and arithmetical reading. We conjecture the logic QRC to be arithmetically complete. This paper takes the first steps towards arithmetical completeness by providing relational semantics for QRC with a corresponding completeness proof. We also show the finite model property, which implies decidability.
