| Abstract / Kurzbeschreibung: |
Modal languages are well-known for their robust decidability and relatively low complexity. However, as soon as one adds a self-referencing construct, like hybrid logic’s down-arrow binder, to the basic modal language, decidability is lost, even if one restricts binding to a single variable. Here, we concentrate on the latter case and investigate the logics obtained by restricting the nesting depth of modalities between binding and use. In particular, for distances strictly below 3 we obtain well-behaved logics with a relatively high descriptive power. We investigate the fragment with distance 1 in the framework of coalgebraic modal logic, for which we provide very general decidability and complexity results. For the fragment with distance 2 we focus on the case of Kripke semantics and obtain optimum complexity bounds (no harder than the base logic). We show that this fragment is expressive enough to accommodate the guarded fragment over the correspondence language. |
