A Logic for Fresh Labelled Transition Systems

Authors: Mohamed H. Bandukara and Nikos Tzevelekos

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 363, 34th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2026)

Abstract
We introduce a Hennessy-Milner logic with recursion for Fresh Labelled Transition Systems (FLTSs). These are nominal labelled transition systems which keep track of the history, i.e. of data values seen so far, and can model fresh data generation. In particular, FLTSs generalise the computations of Fresh-Register Automata, which in turn can be seen as a "regular" class of history-tracking automata operating on infinite input alphabets. The logic we introduce is a modal mu-calculus equipped with infinite disjunctions over arbitrary and fresh data values respectively, while its recursion is parameterised on vectors of data values. It can express a variety of properties, such as the existence of an infinite path of distinct data values, the absence of paths where values are repeated, or the existence of a finite path where some taint property is violated. We study the model-checking problem and its complexity via a reduction to parity games and, using nominal sets techniques, provide an exponential upper bound for it.

Compositional Reasoning for Parametric Probabilistic Automata

Authors: Hannah Mertens, Tim Quatmann, and Joost-Pieter Katoen

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 348, 36th International Conference on Concurrency Theory (CONCUR 2025)

Abstract
We establish an assume-guarantee (AG) framework for compositional reasoning about multi-objective queries in parametric probabilistic automata (pPA) - an extension to probabilistic automata (PA), where transition probabilities are functions over a finite set of parameters. We lift an existing framework for PA to the pPA setting, incorporating asymmetric, circular, and interleaving proof rules. Our approach enables the verification of a broad spectrum of multi-objective queries for pPA, encompassing probabilistic properties and (parametric) expected total rewards. Additionally, we introduce a rule for reasoning about monotonicity in composed pPAs.

Pareto Fronts for Compositionally Solving String Diagrams of Parity Games

Authors: Kazuki Watanabe

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 342, 11th Conference on Algebra and Coalgebra in Computer Science (CALCO 2025)

Abstract
Open parity games are proposed as a compositional extension of parity games with algebraic operations, forming string diagrams of parity games. A potential application of string diagrams of parity games is to describe a large parity game with a given compositional structure and solve it efficiently as a divide-and-conquer algorithm by exploiting its compositional structure. Building on our recent progress in open Markov decision processes, we introduce Pareto fronts of open parity games, offering a framework for multi-objective solutions. We establish the positional determinacy of open parity games with respect to their Pareto fronts through a novel translation method. Our translation converts an open parity game into a parity game tailored to a given single-objective. Furthermore, we present a simple algorithm for solving open parity games, derived from this translation that allows the application of existing efficient algorithms for parity games. Expanding on this foundation, we develop a compositional algorithm for string diagrams of parity games.

Function Spaces for Orbit-Finite Sets

Authors: Mikołaj Bojańczyk, Lê Thành Dũng (Tito) Nguyễn, and Rafał Stefański

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 297, 51st International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2024)

Abstract
Orbit-finite sets are a generalisation of finite sets, and as such support many operations allowed for finite sets, such as pairing, quotienting, or taking subsets. However, they do not support function spaces, i.e. if X and Y are orbit-finite sets, then the space of finitely supported functions from X to Y is not orbit-finite. We propose a solution to this problem inspired by linear logic.

Template Games, Simple Games, and Day Convolution

Authors: Clovis Eberhart, Tom Hirschowitz, and Alexis Laouar

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 131, 4th International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2019)

Abstract
Template games [P.-A. Melliès, 2019] unify various approaches to game semantics, by exhibiting them as instances of a double-categorical variant of the slice construction. However, in the particular case of simple games [R. Harmer et al., 2007; C. Jacq and P.-A. Melliès, 2018], template games do not quite yield the standard (bi)category. We refine the construction using factorisation systems, obtaining as an instance a slight generalisation of simple games and strategies. This proves that template games have the descriptive power to capture combinatorial constraints defining well-known classes of games. Another instance is Day’s convolution monoidal structure on the category of presheaves over a strict monoidal category [B. Day, 1970], which answers a question raised in [C. Eberhart, 2018].

Justified Sequences in String Diagrams: a Comparison Between Two Approaches to Concurrent Game Semantics

Authors: Clovis Eberhart and Tom Hirschowitz

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

Abstract
Recent developments of game semantics have given rise to new models of concurrent languages. On the one hand, an approach based on string diagrams has given models of CCS and the pi-calculus, and on the other hand, Tsukada and Ong have designed a games model for a non-deterministic lambda-calculus. There is an obvious, shallow relationship between the two approaches, as they both define innocent strategies as sheaves for a Grothendieck topology embedding "views" into "plays". However, the notions of views and plays differ greatly between the approaches: Tsukada and Ong use notions from standard game semantics, while the authors of this paper use string diagrams. We here aim to bridge this gap by showing that even though the notions of plays, views, and innocent strategies differ, it is mostly a matter of presentation.

An Intensionally Fully-abstract Sheaf Model for pi

Authors: Clovis Eberhart, Tom Hirschowitz, and Thomas Seiller

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

Abstract
Following previous work on CCS, we propose a compositional model for the pi-calculus in which processes are interpreted as sheaves on certain simple sites. We define an analogue of fair testing equivalence in the model and show that our interpretation is intensionally fully abstract for it. That is, the interpretation preserves and reflects fair testing equivalence; and furthermore, any strategy is fair testing equivalent to the interpretation of some process. The central part of our work is the construction of our sites, whose heart is a combinatorial presentation of pi-calculus traces in the spirit of string diagrams. As in previous work, the sheaf condition is analogous to innocence in Hyland-Ong/Nickau games.
