Comonadic semantics for hybrid logic

pdf-format:
LIPIcs-MFCS-2022-7.pdf (0.7 MB)

Abstract

Hybrid logic is a widely-studied extension of basic modal logic, which corresponds to the bounded fragment of first-order logic. We study it from two novel perspectives: (1) We apply the recently introduced paradigm of comonadic semantics, which provides a new set of tools drawing on ideas from categorical semantics which can be applied to finite model theory, descriptive complexity and combinatorics. (2) We give a novel semantic characterization of hybrid logic in terms of invariance under disjoint extensions, a minimal form of locality. A notable feature of this result is that we give a uniform proof, valid for both the finite and infinite cases.
