Abstract

This paper aims to explore the role of questions in communication in a group of cooperative rational agents. Using epistemic representation of questions proposed in [6] we employ the framework of public announcement logic to explore the flow of information in the process of asking and replying questions in a group. We show that some of the erotetic notions we introduce nicely correspond to the standard epistemic ones.
