Abstract
Current symbolic techniques for the automated reasoning over undecidable hybrid automata, force one to choose between the refinement of either an overapproximation or an underapproximation of the set of reachable states. When the analysis of branching time temporal properties is considered, the literature has developed a number of abstractions techniques based on the simulation preorder, that allow the preservation of only true universally quantified formulæ.
This paper suggests a way to surmount these difficulties by defining a succession of abstractions of hybrid automata, which not only (1) allow the detection and the refinement of both over- and under-approximated reachable sets symmetrically, but also (2) preserves the full set of branching time temporal properties (when interpreted on a dense time domain). Moreover, our approach imposes on the corresponding set of abstractions a desirable monotonicity property with respect to the set of model-checked formulaæ.
