Assuming that grounding is unitary (we can remain neutral on how grounding might be related to metaphysical relations like material constitution and realization), what is the logical form of grounding statements?
It seems that there are cases in which a single fact is grounded in a plurality of facts (e.g., $[p \mathbin q]$ (the fact that $p \mathbin q$) is grounded in $[p], [q]$), so we can think of the logical form of grounding statements on the predicate view as follows: $[p]$ is grounded in Δ, where Δ is a plurality of facts.
For the purposes of this entry we will assume that grounding is a relation between facts, that the logical form of grounding statements is $[p]$ is grounded in Δ, and that $[p]$ is grounded in Δ only if $[p]$ and the Δs obtain (i.e., the grounding relation is factive).
We begin by addressing five foundational issues about grounding: (i) whether grounding is unitary, (ii) whether we can analyze the concept of grounding, (iii) the logical form of grounding statements, (iv) how grounding is related to explanation, and (v) how it's related to necessity.
