The Gödel translation provides an embedding of the intuitionistic logic $\mathsf {IPC}$ into the modal logic $\mathsf {Grz}$ , which then embeds into the modal logic $\mathsf {GL}$ via the splitting translation. Combined with Solovay’s theorem that $\mathsf {GL}$ is the modal logic of the provability predicate of Peano Arithmetic $\mathsf {PA}$ , both $\mathsf {IPC}$ and $\mathsf {Grz}$ admit provability interpretations. When attempting to ‘lift’ these results to the monadic extensions $\mathsf {MIPC}$ , $\mathsf {MGrz}$ , and $\mathsf {MGL}$ of these logics, the same techniques no longer work. Following a conjecture made by Esakia, we add an appropriate version of Casari’s formula to these monadic extensions (denoted by a ‘+’), obtaining that the Gödel translation embeds $\mathsf {M^{+}IPC}$ into $\mathsf {M^{+}Grz}$ and the splitting translation embeds $\mathsf {M^{+}Grz}$ into $\mathsf {MGL}$ . As proven by Japaridze, Solovay’s result extends to the monadic system $\mathsf {MGL}$ , which leads us to a provability interpretation of both $\mathsf {M^{+}IPC}$ and $\mathsf {M^{+}Grz}$ .
