In modal logic, the axiom scheme:
where and are necessity and possibility operators and is a conditional connective. The logic is the logic extending the smallest normal modal logic with the McKinsey axiom. The axiom is notable in that it is not canonical, that is, there are countermodels to the McKinsey axiom constructed on the canonical frame for logic . Named for J. C. C. McKinsey (1908–1953), the axiom is also the converse of the Geach axiom.
