Dual Choice and Iteration in an Abstract Algebra of Action
Uppsala universitet, Avdelningen för teoretisk filosofi.
2012 (English)In: Studia Logica: An International Journal for Symbolic Logic, ISSN 0039-3215, E-ISSN 1572-8730, Vol. 100, no 3, p. 607-630Article in journal (Refereed) Published
Abstract [en]

This paper presents an abstract-algebraic formulation of action facilitating reasoning about two opposing agents. Two dual nondeterministic choice operators are formulated abstract-algebraically: angelic (or user) choice and demonic (or system) choice. Iteration operators are also defined. As an application, Hoare-style correctness rules are established by means of the algebra. A negation operator is also discussed.
