Weighted GKAT: Completeness and Complexity

Logic in Computer Science 2025-04-30 v1 Formal Languages and Automata Theory Programming Languages

Abstract

We propose Weighted Guarded Kleene Algebra with Tests (wGKAT), an uninterpreted weighted programming language equipped with branching, conditionals, and loops. We provide an operational semantics for wGKAT using a variant of weighted automata and introduce a sound and complete axiomatization. We also provide a polynomial time decision procedure for bisimulation equivalence.
