Abstract Taking Löb's Axiom in modal provability logic as a running thread, we discuss some general methods for extending modal frame
correspondences, mainly by adding fixed-point operators to modal languages as well as their correspondence languages. Our
suggestions are backed up by some new results – while we also refer to relevant work by earlier authors. But our main aim
is advertizing the perspective, showing how modal languages with fixed-point operators are a natural medium to work with.
Keywords Löb's Axiom - fixed-point - frame correspondence - modal μ-calculus
