Logic Column 15: Coalgebras and Their Logics
@article{Kurz2006LogicC1, title={Logic Column 15: Coalgebras and Their Logics}, author={Alexander Kurz}, journal={ArXiv}, year={2006}, volume={abs/cs/0605128} }
This article describes recent work on the topic of specifying properties of transition systems. By giving a suitably abstract description of transition systems as coalgebras, it is possible to derive logics for capturing properties of these transition systems in an elegant way.

It is shown that for any standard, weak pullback preserving functor F, the class of recognizable languages of F -coalgebras is closed under taking unions, intersections and projections.

The classical theory of deterministic automata is presented in terms of the notions of homomorphism and bisimulation, which are the cornerstones of the theory of (universal) coalgebra. This leads to…
Modular Construction of Modal Logics

This work uses coalgebras to model the behaviour of systems, and modal logics to specify behavioural properties of systems to derive sound, complete and expressive logics for a wide variety of probabilistic systems.
