Dynamic Logic
This book provides the first comprehensive introduction to Dynamic Logic. Among the many approaches to formal reasoning about programs, Dynamic Logic enjoys the singular advantage of being strongly related to classical logic. Its variants constitute natural generalizations and extensions of classical formalisms. For example, Propositional Dynamic Logic (PDL) can be described as a blend of three complementary classical ingredients: propositional calculus, modal logic, and the algebra of regular events. In First-Order Dynamic Logic (DL), the propositional calculus is replaced by classical first-order predicate calculus. Dynamic Logic is a system of remarkable unity that is theoretically rich as well as of practical value. It can be used for formalizing correctness specifications and proving rigorously that those specifications are met by a particular program. Other uses include determining the equivalence of programs, comparing the expressive power of various programming constructs, and synthesizing programs from specifications. This book provides the first comprehensive introduction to Dynamic Logic. It is divided into three parts. The first part reviews the appropriate fundamental concepts of logic and computability theory and can stand alone as an introduction to these topics. The second part discusses PDL and its variants, and the third part discusses DL and its variants. Examples are provided throughout, and exercises and a short historical section are included at the end of each chapter.
Dynamic Epistemic Logic

language: en
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
Release Date: 2007-05-06
Dynamic Epistemic Logic is the logic of knowledge change. This book provides various logics to support such formal specifications, including proof systems. Concrete examples and epistemic puzzles enliven the exposition. The book also offers exercises with answers. It is suitable for graduate courses in logic. Many examples, exercises, and thorough completeness proofs and expressivity results are included. A companion web page offers slides for lecturers and exams for further practice.
Dynamic Logic. New Trends and Applications
This book constitutes the proceedings of the Third International Workshop on Dynamic Logic, DaLí 2019, held in Prague, Czech Republic in October 2020. Due to COVID-19 the workshop has been held online. The 17 full papers presented together with 6 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 31 submissions. The theoretical relevance and practical potential of dynamic logic is a topic of interest in a number of scientific venues, from wide-scope software engineering conferences to modal logic specific events. The DaLí 2020 workshop is exclusively dedicated to Dynamic logic and aims at filling this gap and creating a heterogeneous community of colleagues, from Academia to Industry, from Mathematics to Computer Science.
