Probabilistic automata were introduced by Rabin in 1963 as language acceptors. Two automata are equivalent if and only if they accept each word with the same probability. On the other side, in the process algebra community, probabilistic…

The Kripke semantics of various logics arises via categorical dualities between a category of relational frames and their maps, and a category of algebras and logical homomorphisms. When the relational frames are considered as computational…

Simulations and bisimulations between two fuzzy automata over a complete residuated lattice were defined by \'Ciri\'c et al. (2012) as fuzzy relations between the sets of states of the automata. However, they act as a crisp relationship…

We develop a new bisimulation (pseudo)metric for weighted finite automata (WFA) that generalizes Boreale's linear bisimulation relation. Our metrics are induced by seminorms on the state space of WFA. Our development is based on spectral…

In the setting of Petri nets, we prove that {\em causal-net bisimilarity} \cite{G15,Gor22,Gor25a}, which is a refinement of history-preserving bisimilarity \cite{RT88,vGG89,DDM89}, and the novel {\em hereditary} causal-net bisimilarity,…

Many concurrent and distributed systems are safety-critical and therefore have to provide a high degree of assurance. Important properties of such systems are frequently proved on the specification level, but implementations typically…
