Hybrid Communicating Sequential Processes (HCSP) is a powerful formal modeling language for hybrid systems, which is an extension of CSP by introducing differential equations for modeling continuous evolution and interrupts for modeling…

The most efficient way to calculate strong bisimilarity is by calculation the relational coarsest partition on a transition system. We provide the first linear time algorithm to calculate strong bisimulation using parallel random access…

We consider systems of rational agents who act and interact in pursuit of their individual and collective objectives. We study and formalise the reasoning of an agent, or of an external observer, about the expected choices of action of the…

We address the task of deriving fixpoint equations from modal logics characterizing behavioural equivalences and metrics (summarized under the term conformances). We rely on earlier work that obtains Hennessy-Milner theorems as corollaries…

This paper establishes a comprehensive theory of runtime monitorability for Hennessy-Milner logic with recursion, a very expressive variant of the modal $\mu$-calculus. It investigates the monitorability of that logic with a linear-time…

We show that a history-based variant of alternating bisimulation with imperfect information allows it to be related to a variant of Alternating-time Temporal Logic (ATL) with imperfect information by a full Hennessy-Milner theorem. The…

We assess the descriptive complexity of *bisimilarity* or "equality of behavior" on a family of Markov decision processes over uncountable standard Borel spaces, namely *nondeterministic labelled Markov processes* (NLMP). We show that…

We provide a fine classification of bisimilarities between states of possibly different labelled Markov processes (LMP). We show that a bisimilarity relation proposed by Panangaden that uses direct sums coincides with "event bisimilarity"…

We study comparisons between interpretations in description logics with respect to "logical consequences" of the form of semi-positive concepts (like semi-positive concept assertions). Such comparisons are characterized by conditions…

We investigate the resolution of second-order, potential, and monotone mean field games with the generalized conditional gradient algorithm, an extension of the Frank-Wolfe algorithm. We show that the method is equivalent to the fictitious…

Several application domains require formal but flexible approaches to the comparison problem. Different process models that cannot be related by behavioral equivalences should be compared via a quantitative notion of similarity, which is…

Stuttering bisimulation is a well-known behavioral equivalence that preserves CTL-X, namely CTL without the next-time operator X. Correspondingly, the stuttering simulation preorder induces a coarser behavioral equivalence that preserves…

By results of Dantzig (1951) and Adler (2013), computing the optimal solutions of a linear program is equivalent to finding optimal strategies in zero-sum bimatrix games. Dantzig's original result was incomplete, in the sense that the…

After recalling the definitions of atomic and molecular logics, we show how notions of bisimulation can be automatically defined from the truth conditions of the connectives of any of these logics. Then, we prove a generalization of van…

This paper introduces the counterpart of strong bisimilarity for labelled transition systems extended with time-out transitions. It supports this concept through a modal characterisation, congruence results for a standard process algebra…

We define a notion of Lambda-simulation for coalgebraic modal logics, parametric on the choice Lambda of predicate liftings for a functor T. We show this notion is adequate in several ways: i) it preserves truth of positive formulas, ii)…

While distributed systems with transfer of processes have become pervasive, methods for reasoning about their behaviour are underdeveloped. In this paper we propose a bisimulation technique for proving behavioural equivalence of such…

We introduce k-quantifier logics -- logics with access to k-tuples of elements and very general quantification patterns for transitions between k-tuples. The framework is very expressive and encompasses e.g. the k-variable fragments of…

The classical Hennessy-Milner theorem is an important tool in the analysis of concurrent processes; it guarantees that any two non-bisimilar states in finitely branching labelled transition systems can be distinguished by a modal formula.…

In this paper, we introduce the simulations and bisimulations on polarity-based semantics for non-distributive modal logic, which are natural generalizations of those notions on Kripke semantics for modal logic. We also generalize other…
