On Partially Additive Kleene Algebras

نویسنده

چکیده

We define the notion of a partially additive Kleene algebra, which is a Kleene algebra where the + operation need only be partially defined. These structures formalize a number of examples that cannot be handled directly by Kleene algebras. We relate partially additive Kleene algebras to existing algebraic structures, by exhibiting categorical connections with Kleene algebras, partially additive categories, and closed semirings.

*-Continuous Kleene $\omega$-Algebras for Energy Problems

Energy problems are important in the formal analysis of embedded or autonomous systems. Using recent results on ∗-continuous Kleene ω-algebras, we show here that energy problems can be solved by algebraic manipulations on the transition matrix of energy automata. To this end, we prove general results about certain classes of finitely additive functions on complete lattices which should be of a ...

Partially Ordered Monads for Monadic Topologies, Rough Sets and Kleene Algebras

In this paper we will show that partially ordered monads contain sufficient structure for modelling monadic topologies, rough sets and Kleene algebras. Convergence represented by extension structures over partially ordered monads includes notions of regularity and compactness. A compactification theory can be developed. Rough sets [23] are modelled in a generalized setting with set functors. Fu...

Partially ordered monads and powerset Kleene algebras

Monads are used for various applications in computer science, and well-known is e.g. the interpretation of morphisms in the Kleisli category of the term monad as variable substitutions assigning variables to terms. An application building upon this observation is the equivalence between most general unifiers and co-equalizers in this category [13]. In this paper we will use monads with addition...

On the Expressive Power of Kleene Algebra with Domain

It is shown that antidomain semirings are more expressive than test semirings and that Kleene algebras with domain are more expressive than Kleene algebras with tests. It is also shown that Kleene algebras with domain are expressive for propositional Hoare logic whereas Kleene algebras with tests are not.

On Kleene Algebras and Closed Semirings

Kleene algebras are an important class of algebraic structures that arise in diverse areas of computer science: program logic and semantics, relational algebra, automata theory, and the design and analysis of algorithms. The literature contains several inequivalent definitions of Kleene algebras and related algebraic structures [2, 14, 15, 5, 6, 1, 10, 7]. In this paper we establish some new re...
