Succinct Graph Representations of μ-Calculus Formulas

Authors: Clemens Kupke, Johannes Marti, and Yde Venema

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 216, 30th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2022)


Abstract
Many algorithmic results on the modal mu-calculus use representations of formulas such as alternating tree automata or hierarchical equation systems. At closer inspection, these results are not always optimal, since the exact relation between the formula and its representation is not clearly understood. In particular, there has been confusion about the definition of the fundamental notion of the size of a mu-calculus formula. We propose the notion of a parity formula as a natural way of representing a mu-calculus formula, and as a yardstick for measuring its complexity. We discuss the close connection of this concept with alternating tree automata, hierarchical equation systems and parity games. We show that well-known size measures for mu-calculus formulas correspond to a parity formula representation of the formula using its syntax tree, subformula graph or closure graph, respectively. Building on work by Bruse, Friedmann & Lange we argue that for optimal complexity results one needs to work with the closure graph, and thus define the size of a formula in terms of its Fischer-Ladner closure. As a new observation, we show that the common assumption of a formula being clean, that is, with every variable bound in at most one subformula, incurs an exponential blow-up of the size of the closure. To realise the optimal upper complexity bound of model checking for all formulas, our main result is to provide a construction of a parity formula that (a) is based on the closure graph of a given formula, (b) preserves the alternation-depth but (c) does not assume the input formula to be clean.

Omega-Automata: A Coalgebraic Perspective on Regular omega-Languages

Authors: Vincenzo Ciancia and Yde Venema

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 139, 8th Conference on Algebra and Coalgebra in Computer Science (CALCO 2019)


Abstract
In this work, we provide a simple coalgebraic characterisation of regular omega-languages based on languages of lassos, and prove a number of related mathematical results, framed into the theory of a new kind of automata called Omega-automata. In earlier work we introduced Omega-automata as two-sorted structures that naturally operate on lassos, pairs of words encoding ultimately periodic streams (infinite words). Here we extend the scope of these Omega-automata by proposing them as a new kind of acceptor for arbitrary streams. We prove that Omega-automata are expressively complete for the regular omega-languages. We show that, due to their coalgebraic nature, Omega-automata share some attractive properties with deterministic automata operating on finite words, properties that other types of stream automata lack. In particular, we provide a simple, coalgebraic definition of bisimilarity between Omega-automata that exactly captures language equivalence and allows for a simple minimization procedure. We also prove a coalgebraic Myhill-Nerode style theorem for lasso languages, and use this result, in combination with a closure property on stream languages called lasso determinacy, to give a characterization of regular omega-languages.

Coalgebraic Geometric Logic

Authors: Nick Bezhanishvili, Jim de Groot, and Yde Venema

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 139, 8th Conference on Algebra and Coalgebra in Computer Science (CALCO 2019)


Abstract
Using the theory of coalgebra, we introduce a uniform framework for adding modalities to the language of propositional geometric logic. Models for this logic are based on coalgebras for an endofunctor T on some full subcategory of the category Top of topological spaces and continuous functions. We compare the notions of modal equivalence, behavioural equivalence and bisimulation on the resulting class of models, and we provide a final object for the corresponding category. Furthermore, we specify a method of lifting an endofunctor on Set, accompanied by a collection of predicate liftings, to an endofunctor on the category of topological spaces.

Disjunctive Bases: Normal Forms for Modal Logics

Authors: Sebastian Enqvist and Yde Venema

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 72, 7th Conference on Algebra and Coalgebra in Computer Science (CALCO 2017)


Abstract
We present the concept of a disjunctive basis as a generic framework for normal forms in modal logic based on coalgebra. Disjunctive bases were defined in previous work on completeness for modal fixpoint logics, where they played a central role in the proof of a generic completeness theorem for coalgebraic mu-calculi. Believing the concept has a much wider significance, here we investigate it more thoroughly in its own right. We show that the presence of a disjunctive basis at the "one-step" level entails a number of good properties for a coalgebraic mu-calculus, in particular, a simulation theorem showing that every alternating automaton can be transformed into an equivalent nondeterministic one. Based on this, we prove a Lyndon theorem for the full fixpoint logic, its fixpoint-free fragment and its one-step fragment, and a Uniform Interpolation result, for both the full mu-calculus and its fixpoint-free fragment. We also raise the questions, when a disjunctive basis exists, and how disjunctive bases are related to Moss' coalgebraic "nabla" modalities. Nabla formulas provide disjunctive bases for many coalgebraic modal logics, but there are cases where disjunctive bases give useful normal forms even when nabla formulas fail to do so, our prime example being graded modal logic. Finally, we consider the problem of giving a category-theoretic formulation of disjunctive bases, and provide a partial solution.

Completeness for Coalgebraic Fixpoint Logic

Authors: Sebastian Enqvist, Fatemeh Seifan, and Yde Venema

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 62, 25th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2016)


Abstract
We introduce an axiomatization for the coalgebraic fixed point logic which was introduced by Venema as a generalization, based on Moss' coalgebraic modality, of the well-known modal mu-calculus. Our axiomatization can be seen as a generalization of Kozen's proof system for the modal mu-calculus to the coalgebraic level of generality. It consists of a complete axiomatization for Moss'modality, extended with Kozen's axiom and rule for the fixpoint operators. Our main result is a completeness theorem stating that, for functors that preserve weak pullbacks and restrict to finite sets, our axiomatization is sound and complete for the standard interpretation of the language in coalgebraic models. Our proof is based on automata-theoretic ideas: in particular, we introduce the notion of consequence game for modal automata, which plays a crucial role in the proof of our main result. The result generalizes the celebrated Kozen-Walukiewicz completeness theorem for the modal mu-calculus, and our automata-theoretic methods simplify parts of Walukiewicz' proof.

Uniform Interpolation for Coalgebraic Fixpoint Logic

Authors: Johannes Marti, Fatemeh Seifan, and Yde Venema

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 35, 6th Conference on Algebra and Coalgebra in Computer Science (CALCO 2015)


Abstract
We use the connection between automata and logic to prove that a wide class of coalgebraic fixpoint logics enjoys uniform interpolation. To this aim, first we generalize one of the central results in coalgebraic automata theory, namely closure under projection, which is known to hold for weak-pullback preserving functors, to a more general class of functors, i.e., functors with quasifunctorial lax extensions. Then we will show that closure under projection implies definability of the bisimulation quantifier in the language of coalgebraic fixpoint logic, and finally we prove the uniform interpolation theorem.
