Abstract: We give a finitary axiomatization of the algebra of regular events involving only equations and equational implications. Unlike Salomaa 's axiomatizations, the axiomatization given here is sound for all interpretations over Kleene algebras. 1 Introduction Kleene algebras are algebraic structures with operators +, \Delta, , 0, and 1 satisfying certain axioms. They arise in various guises in a number of settings: relational algebra [22, 23], semantics and logics of programs [14, 24], automata... (Update)
