Core Concepts
Coalition logic assumptions are scrutinized for strategic reasoning.
Abstract
The content delves into the critique of three key assumptions in coalition logic models used in strategic reasoning studies. It introduces a minimal coalition logic based on general concurrent game models, highlighting differences and implications. The structure includes an introduction, detailed analysis of assumptions, comparison with Coalition Logic, and axiomatic system development.
Introduction:
Coalition logic's central role in strategic reasoning.
Critique of three strong assumptions in coalition logic models.
Models of Coalition Logic:
Three too-strong assumptions: independence of agents, seriality, determinism.
Our Work:
Introduction of minimal coalition logic (MCL) based on general concurrent game models.
Comparison with Coalition Logic and completeness demonstration.
General Concurrent Game Models:
Definition and comparison to concurrent game models.
Language and Semantics:
Similarities to CL but differences due to conditional actions.
Axiomatization:
Development of an axiomatic system for MCL.
Differences from CL:
Independence of agents reconsidered.
Seriality assumption challenged.
Determinism questioned.
