Cousot and Cousot introduced and studied a general past/future-time specification language, called -calculus, featuring a natural time-symmetric trace-based semantics. The standard state-based semantics of the -calculus is an abstract interpretation of its trace-based semantics, which turns out to be incomplete, that is trace-incomplete, even for finite systems. As a consequence, standard state-based model checking of the -calculus is incomplete w.r.t. trace-based model checking. This paper shows that any refinement or abstraction of the domain of sets of states induces a corresponding semantics which is still trace-incomplete for any propositional fragment of the -calculus. This derives from a number of results, one for each incomplete logical/temporal connective of the -calculus, that characterize the structure of models, i.e., transition systems, whose corresponding state-based semantics of the -calculus is trace-complete. lete.
