| contents | In previous work we provided a method for eliminating cuts in non-wellfounded proofs with a local-progress condition, these being the simplest kind of non-wellfounded proofs. The method consisted of splitting the proof into nicely behaved fragments. This paper extends our method to proofs based on simple trace conditions. The main idea is to split the system with the trace condition into infinitely many local-progress calculi that together are equivalent to the original trace-based system. This provides a cut elimination method using only basic tools of structural proof theory and corecursion, which is needed due to the non-wellfounded character of proofs. We will employ the method to obtain syntactic cut elimination for $K^+$, a system of modal logic with the master modality. |
