In the mid 80s, Lichtenstein, Pnueli, and Zuck proved a classical theorem stating that every formula of Past LTL (the extension of LTL with past operators) is equivalent to a formula of the form $\bigwedge_{i=1}^n \mathbf{G}\mathbf{F}…
Boolean-type algebra (BTA) is investigated. A BTA is decomposed into Boolean-type lattice (BTL) and a complementation algebra (CA). When the object set is finite, the matrix expressions of BTL and CA (and then BTA) are presented. The…
