Ruitenburg's Theorem via Duality and Bounded Bisimulations

Abstract

For a given intuitionistic propositional formula A and a propositional variable x occurring in it, define the infinite sequence of formulae { A _i | i≥1} by letting A_1 be A and A_{i+1} be A(A_i/x). Ruitenburg's Theorem [8] says that the sequence { A _i } (modulo logical equivalence) is ultimately periodic with period 2, i.e. there is N ≥ 0 such that A N+2 ↔ A N is provable in intuitionistic propositional calculus. We give a semantic proof of this theorem, using duality techniques and bounded bisimulations ranks.
