Abstract

In this paper we discuss ideas about dynamic modal logics. Modal logics are appropriate to describe properties of relational structures, and several operators have been already introduced to describe dynamic properties of such structures. However, we are interested in those operators which can modify models during the evaluation of a formula. First, we introduce different dynamic operators to clarify which of them are interesting for us. Then we focus on operators which modify the accessibility relation of relational models, and we show some expressivity results.
