Re: [moca] Decidability of semantics



Has it been determined exactly under what circumstances it is decidable what transitions an agent has? [snip]
A related question is decidability of structural congruence - is this problem still open?

I don't know for your first question.

For the second question, Engelfriet/Gelsema TR04-07 (May 2004): "to our knowledge this question [of decidability of structural congruence] is still open. In [Engelfriet TCS153/1996, Engelfriet/Gelsema TCS211/1999] we have shown that adding four new structural laws, the resulting 'extended congruence' is decidable".

So I don't know for your second question either, but it was most likely still open in May 2004, but perhaps pointlessly so because the four extra structural laws are so reasonable...
!(P|Q) == !P | !Q
!!P == !P
!0 == 0
!P | !P == !P
