This paper presents general, sufficient conditions guaranteeing that characteristic formulae are exactly the consistent and prime ones. It is shown that the given conditions apply to the logics characterizing all the semantics in van Glabbeek’s branching-time spectrum.engAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/conference paperhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-662-48057-1_6restricted accessInformática (Informática)1203.17 Informática
