A Team Based Variant of CTL
We introduce two variants of computation tree logic CTL based on team
semantics: an asynchronous one and a synchronous one. For both variants we
investigate the computational complexity of the satisfiability as well as the
model checking problem. The satisfiability problem is shown to be
EXPTIME-complete. Here it does not matter which of the two semantics are
considered. For model checking we prove a PSPACE-completeness for the
synchronous case, and show P-completeness for the asynchronous case.
Furthermore we prove several interesting fundamental properties of both
semantics.Comment: TIME 2015 conference version, modified title and motiviatio
A Canonical Model Construction for Iteration-Free PDL with Intersection
We study the axiomatisability of the iteration-free fragment of Propositional
Dynamic Logic with Intersection and Tests. The combination of program
composition, intersection and tests makes its proof-theory rather difficult. We
develop a normal form for formulae which minimises the interaction between
these operators, as well as a refined canonical model construction. From these
we derive an axiom system and a proof of its strong completeness.Comment: In Proceedings GandALF 2016, arXiv:1609.0364
The model checking fingerprints of CTL operators
The aim of this study is to understand the inherent expressive power of CTL
operators. We investigate the complexity of model checking for all CTL
fragments with one CTL operator and arbitrary Boolean operators. This gives us
a fingerprint of each CTL operator. The comparison between the fingerprints
yields a hierarchy of the operators that mirrors their strength with respect to
model checking
Optimal Tableaux Method for Constructive Satisfiability Testing and Model Synthesis in the Alternating-time Temporal Logic ATL+
We develop a sound, complete and practically implementable tableaux-based
decision method for constructive satisfiability testing and model synthesis in
the fragment ATL+ of the full Alternating time temporal logic ATL*. The method
extends in an essential way a previously developed tableaux-based decision
method for ATL and works in 2EXPTIME, which is the optimal worst case
complexity of the satisfiability problem for ATL+ . We also discuss how
suitable parametrizations and syntactic restrictions on the class of input ATL+
formulae can reduce the complexity of the satisfiability problem.Comment: 45 page
