Modular Construction of Complete Coalgebraic Logics
... In the coalgebraic approach, a system consists of a state space C and a function γ : C → T C, which maps every state c ∈ C to the observations γ(c) that can be made of c after one transition step. Different types of systems can then be represented by varying the type T of observations. A closer loo ...

A Judgmental Reconstruction of Modal Logic

We have said that a verification of A ∧ B consists of a verification of A and a verification of B. Local completeness entails that it is always possible to bring the verification of A ∧ B int ...
