Abstract: Quantification in modal logic is interesting from a technical and philosophical standpoint. Here we look at quantification in autoepistemic logic, which is a modal logic of self-knowledge. We propose several different semantics, all based on the idea that having beliefs about an individual amounts to having a belief using a certain type of name for the individual.
