Asynchronous Correspondences Between Hybrid Trajectory Semantics (2209.14945v1)

Abstract: We formalize the semantics of hybrid systems as sets of hybrid trajectories, including those generated by an hybrid transition system. We study the abstraction of hybrid trajectory semantics for verification, static analysis, and refinement. We mainly consider abstractions of hybrid semantics which establish a correspondence between trajectories derived from a correspondence between states such as homomorphisms, simulations, bisimulations, and preservations with progress. We also consider abstractions that cannot be defined stepwise like discretization. All these abstractions are Galois connections between concrete and abstract hybrid trajectory or discrete trace semantics. In contrast to semantic based abstractions, we investigate the problematic trace-based composition of abstractions.
