Propositional Dynamic Logic, PDL, is a modal logic designed to formalize the reasoning about programs. By extending accessibility between states to states and state sets, concurrent propositional dynamic logic CPDL, is introduced to include…
We give sound and complete Hilbert-style axiomatizations for propositional dependence logic (PD), modal dependence logic (MDL), and extended modal dependence logic (EMDL) by extending existing axiomatizations for propositional logic and…
We investigate the expressive power of the two main kinds of program logics for complex, non-regular program properties found in the literature: those extending propositional dynamic logic (PDL), and those extending the modal mu-calculus.…
Dynamic logic is a powerful approach to reasoning about programs and their executions, obtained by extending classical logic with modalities that can express program executions as formulas. However, the use of dynamic logic in the setting…
We introduce Visibly Linear Dynamic Logic (VLDL), which extends Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) by temporal operators that are guarded by visibly pushdown languages over finite words. In VLDL one can, e.g., express that a function resets a…
Propositional dynamic logic (PDL) is an important modal logic used to specify and reason about the behavior of software. A challenging problem in the context of PDL is solving fixed-point equations, i.e., formulae of the form $x \equiv…
Since its establishment, propositional dynamic logic (PDL) has been a subject of intensive academic research and frequent use in the industry. We have studied the complexity of some PDL problems and in this paper, we show results for some…
Applying dynamic logics to program verifications is a challenge, because their axiomatic rules for regular expressions can be difficult to be adapted to different program models. We present a novel dynamic logic, called DLp, which supports…
Whereas the semantics of probabilistic languages has been extensively studied, specification languages for their properties have received less attention -- with the notable exception of recent and on-going efforts by Joost-Pieter Katoen and…
We introduce Parametric Linear Dynamic Logic (PLDL), which extends Linear Dynamic Logic (LDL) by temporal operators equipped with parameters that bound their scope. LDL was proposed as an extension of Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) that is…
We give an optimal (EXPTIME), sound and complete tableau-based algorithm for deciding satisfiability for propositional dynamic logic with converse (CPDL) which does not require the use of analytic cut. Our main contribution is a sound…
Over the last 25 years, a lot of work has been done on seeking for decidable non-regular extensions of Propositional Dynamic Logic (PDL). Only recently, an expressive extension of PDL, allowing visibly pushdown automata (VPAs) as a…
We investigate the complexity of satisfiability for finite-variable fragments of propositional dynamic logics. We consider three formalisms belonging to three representative complexity classes, broadly understood,---regular PDL, which is…
For a class L of languages let PDL[L] be an extension of Propositional Dynamic Logic which allows programs to be in a language of L rather than just to be regular. If L contains a non-regular language, PDL[L] can express non-regular…
We examine a bidirectional propositional dynamic logic (PDL) for finite and infinite message sequence charts (MSCs) extending LTL and TLC-. By this kind of multi-modal logic we can express properties both in the entire future and in the…
This article introduces a relatively complete proof calculus for differential dynamic logic (dL) that is entirely based on uniform substitution, a proof rule that substitutes a formula for a predicate symbol everywhere. Uniform…
We introduce a weighted linear dynamic logic (weighted LDL for short) and show the expressive equivalence of its formulas to weighted rational expressions. This adds a new characterization for recognizable series to the fundamental…
We present a theory of parameterized dynamic logic, namely DLp, for specifying and reasoning about a rich set of program models based on their transitional behaviours. Different from most dynamic logics that deal with regular expressions or…
We study a many-valued generalization of Propositional Dynamic Logic where formulas in states and accessibility relations between states of a Kripke model are evaluated in a finite FL-algebra. One natural interpretation of this framework is…
Propositional Dynamic Logic or PDL was invented as a logic for reasoning about regular programming constructs. We propose a new perspective on PDL as a multi-agent strategic logic (MASL). This logic for strategic reasoning has group…
