A Characteristic Frame for Positive Intuitionistic and Relevance Logic

I show that the lattice of the positive integers ordered by division is characteristic for Urquhart's positive semilattice relevance logic; that is, a formula is valid in positive semilattice relevance logic if and only if it is valid in all models over the positive integers ordered by division. I show that the same frame is characteristic for positive intuitionistic logic, where the class of models over it is restricted to those satisfying a heredity condition. The results of this article highlight deep connections between intuitionistic and semilattice relevance logic.
