Abstract:

Abstract. The clausal resolution method for propositional linear-time temporal logics is well known and provides the basis for a number of temporal provers. The method is based on an intuitive clausal form, called SNF, comprising 3 main clause types and a small number of resolution rules. In this paper, we show that the normal form can be radically simpli ed and, following on from this, a simplied resolution method can be de ned for this important variety of temporal logic. 1
