Coalgebraic Non-Wellfounded Proofs: Recursiveness and GTC

Mayuko Kori

Non-wellfounded proofs satisfy the global trace condition exactly when a related coalgebra is recursive, which ensures soundness through a unique semantic morphism.

Claims

C1strongest claim

A coalgebra satisfies the GTC if and only if its image under a suitable adjoint is recursive; under an appropriate assumption on the given semantic algebra this yields soundness, that is, every proof admits a unique coalgebra-to-algebra morphism.

C2weakest assumption

The paper relies on an appropriate assumption on the given semantic algebra that guarantees the existence of the unique coalgebra-to-algebra morphism once recursiveness is established (stated in the paragraph following the main theorem on recursive coalgebras).

C3one line summary

The paper shows that a derivation graph satisfies the global trace condition if and only if its image under a suitable adjoint is a recursive coalgebra, yielding soundness under an assumption on the semantic algebra.
