Abstract

We introduce \(\ell r\)-multisemigroups as duals of modal quantales and study modal correspondences between equations in these multisemigroups and the domain and codomain axioms of modal quantales. Our results yield new insights on the origin of locality in modal semirings and quantales. They also yield construction principles for modal powerset quantales that cover a wide range of models and applications.
