Abstract: We introduce a simple game theoretic approach to satisfiability
checking of temporal logic, for LTL and CTL, which
has the same complexity as using automata. The mechanisms
involved are both explicit and transparent, and underpin
a novel approach to developing complete axiom systems
for temporal logic. The axiom systems are naturally
factored into what happens locally and what happens in the
limit. The completeness proofs utilise the game theoretic
construction for satisfiability: if a finite... (Update)

...This approach was first used in [6] to solve the model checking problem for the temporal logics LTL and CTL # in a game based way. In [7] it is shown how this technique solved satisfiability for the temporal logics LTL and CTL, and at the same time led to simple completeness...
.... [Sti95] as well as CTL # [LS00, VB00] The latter work has led to game based satisfiability checkers for temporal and dynamic logics [LS01a, LS01b] which easily yield complete axiom systems. There it is shown that games neatly relate satisfiability and consistency of a formula...
