I introduce PEDAL -- a probabilistic epistemic logic meant to capture, in propositional dynamic terms, the epistemic state of an agent engaged in checking whether a program meets its specification. Semantically, PEDAL is built `on top of'…

While LLM-based agents excel at planning and executing long action sequences, their execution often remains inconsistent across trials, limiting reliability. Consolidating agent consistency requires distilling trial-error trajectories into…

When agents collaborate on a task, it is important that they have some shared mental model of the task routines -- the set of feasible plans towards achieving the goals. However, in reality, situations often arise that such a shared mental…
