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}…

In the mid 80s, Lichtenstein, Pnueli, and Zuck showed that every formula of Past LTL (the extension of Linear Temporal Logic with past operators) is equivalent to a conjunction of formulas of the form $\mathbf{G}\mathbf{F} \varphi \vee…

We present a translation from linear temporal logic with past to deterministic Rabin automata. The translation is direct in the sense that it does not rely on intermediate non-deterministic automata, and asymptotically optimal, resulting in…

Some applications of linear temporal logic (LTL) require to translate formulae of the logic to deterministic omega-automata. There are currently two translators producing deterministic automata: ltl2dstar working for the whole LTL and…

The classic approaches to synthesize a reactive system from a linear temporal logic (LTL) specification first translate the given LTL formula to an equivalent omega-automaton and then compute a winning strategy for the corresponding…

While the complexity of translating future linear temporal logic (LTL) into automata on infinite words is well-understood, the size increase involved in turning automata back to LTL is not. In particular, there is no known elementary bound…

This paper describes a method for converting formulas in finite propositional linear-time temporal logic (Finite LTL) into finite-state automata whose languages are the models of the given formula. Finite LTL differs from traditional LTL in…

We present a unified translation of LTL formulas into deterministic Rabin automata, limit-deterministic B\"uchi automata, and nondeterministic B\"uchi automata. The translations yield automata of asymptotically optimal size (double or…

Although it is widely accepted that every system should be robust, in the sense that "small" violations of environment assumptions should lead to "small" violations of system guarantees, it is less clear how to make this intuitive notion of…

When dealing with linear temporal logic properties in the setting of e.g. games or probabilistic systems, one often needs to express them as deterministic omega-automata. In order to translate LTL to deterministic omega-automata, the…

Mission-time Linear Temporal Logic (MLTL), a widely used subset of popular specification logics like STL and MTL, is often used to model and verify real world systems in safety-critical contexts. As the results of formal verification are…

We introduce a method for translating an alternating weak B\"uchi automaton (AWA), which corresponds to a Linear Dynamic Logic (LDL) formula, to an unambiguous B\"uchi automaton (UBA). Our translations generalise constructions for Linear…

Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) is a widely used specification framework for linear time properties of systems. The standard approach for verifying such properties is by transforming LTL formulae to suitable $\omega$-automata and then applying…

We introduce Parametric Linear Dynamic Logic (PLDL), which extends Linear Dynamic Logic (LDL) by temporal operators equipped with parameters that bound their scope. LDL itself was proposed as an extension of Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) that…

Temporal Logic (TL) can be used to rigorously specify complex high-level specification for systems in many engineering applications. The translation between natural language (NL) and TL has been under-explored due to the lack of dataset and…

We present a new algorithm to construct a deterministic Rabin automaton for an LTL formula $\varphi$. The automaton is the product of a master automaton and an array of slave automata, one for each $G$-subformula of $\varphi$. The slave…

Linear temporal logic was introduced in order to reason about reactive systems. It is often considered with respect to infinite words, to specify the behaviour of long-running systems. One can consider more general models for linear time,…
