Abstract

We consider rational power series over an alphabet Σ\Sigma with coefficients in a ordered commutative semiring KK and characterize them as the free ordered KK-semialgebras in various classes of ordered KK-semialgebras equipped with a star operation satisfying the least pre-fixed point rule and/or its dual. The results are generalizations of Kozen's axiomatization of regular languages.
