A dynamical system is a pair (X,f), where X is a topological space and
f:X→X is continuous. Kremer observed that the language of
propositional linear temporal logic can be interpreted over the class of
dynamical systems, giving rise to a natural intuitionistic temporal logic. We
introduce a variant of Kremer's logic, which we denote ITLc, and show
that it is decidable. We also show that minimality and Poincaré recurrence
are both expressible in the language of ITLc, thus providing a
decidable logic expressive enough to reason about non-trivial asymptotic
behavior in dynamical systems.
