Abstract

A new logic, sequence-indexed linear-time temporal logic (SLTL), is obtained semantically from the standard linear-time temporal logic LTL by adding a sequence modal operator which represents a sequence of symbols. By the sequence modal operator of SLTL, we can appropriately express "sequential information" in temporal reasoning. A Gentzen-type sequent calculus for SLTL is introduced, and the completeness and cut-elimination theorems for this calculus are proved. SLTL is also shown to be PSPACE-complete and embeddable into LTL.
