We propose enhancing the use of propositions for denoting decisions and strategies as established in temporal languages such as CTL*, if interpreted on concurrent game models. The enhancement enables specifying varying coalition structure.…

We use the algebraic framework for languages of infinite trees introduced in [4] to derive effective characterisations of various temporal logics, in particular the logic EF (a fragment of CTL) and its counting variant cEF.

We consider quantitative extensions of the alternating-time temporal logics ATL/ATLs called quantitative alternating-time temporal logics (QATL/QATLs) in which the value of a counter can be compared to constants using equality, inequality…

Pnueli first noticed that certain simple 'counting' properties appear to be inexpressible in popular timed temporal logics such as Metric Interval Temporal Logic (MITL). This interesting observation has since been studied extensively,…

Timed temporal logics exhibit a bewildering diversity of operators and the resulting decidability and expressiveness properties also vary considerably. We study the expressive power of timed logics TPTL[U,S] and MTL[U,S] as well as of their…

In the literature, two powerful temporal logic formalisms have been proposed for expressing information flow security requirements, that in general, go beyond regular properties. One is classic, based on the knowledge modalities of…

A seminal result of Kamp is that over the reals Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) has the same expressive power as first-order logic with binary order relation < and monadic predicates. A key question is whether there exists an analogue of Kamp's…

It is well known that (timed) $\omega$-regular properties such as `p holds at every even position' and `p occurs at least three times within the next 10 time units' cannot be expressed in Metric Interval Temporal Logic ($\mathsf{MITL}$) and…
