Dependence logic with generalized quantifiers: Axiomatizations

We prove two completeness results, one for the extension of dependence logic by a monotone generalized quantifier Q with weak interpretation, weak in the meaning that the interpretation of Q varies with the structures. The second result considers the extension of dependence logic where Q is interpreted as “there exists uncountable many.” Both of the axiomatizations are shown to be sound and complete for FO(Q) consequences.
