Model Checking Games for the Quantitative µ-Calculus

Abstract

We investigate quantitative extensions of modal logic and the modal
$mu$-calculus, and study the question whether the tight connection
between logic and games can be lifted from the qualitative logics
to their quantitative counterparts. It turns out that, if the
quantitative $mu$-calculus is defined in an appropriate way
respecting the duality properties between the logical operators,
then its model checking problem can indeed be characterised by a
quantitative variant of parity games. However, these quantitative
games have quite different properties than their classical
counterparts, in particular they are, in general, not positionally
determined. The correspondence between the logic and the games
goes both ways: the value of a formula on a quantitative transition
system coincides with the value of the associated quantitative
game, and conversely, the values of quantitative parity games are
definable in the quantitative $mu$-calculus.
