Coalgebraic modal logic and games for coalgebras with side effects
share
We study coalgebraic modal logic and games to characterise behavioural equivalence in the presence of side effects, i.e., when coalgebras live in a (co)Kleisli or an Eilenberg-Moore category. Our aim is to develop a general framework based on indexed categories/fibrations that is common, at least, to the aforementioned categories. In particular, we show how the coalgebraic notion of behavioural equivalence arises from a relation lifting (a special kind of indexed morphism) and we give a general recipe to construct such liftings in the above three cases. Lastly, we apply this framework to derive games and logical characterisations for (weighted) language equivalence and conditional bisimilarity.
