Towards a Duality Result in Coalgebraic Modal Logic

Bart Jacobs · Electronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science · 2000

This paper forms a step in the development of the recently emerged connection between coalgebra and modal logic. It introduces (back-and-forth) transformations between coalgebras of simple polynomial functors and certain Boolean algebras with operators (BAOs). Categorically, these transformations take the form of an adjunction. The BAO associated with a coalgebra can be used for specification, e.g. of classes in object-oriented languages.
