Abstract

We prove cut-elimination for a sequent-style proof system which is sound and complete for the equational theory of Kleene algebra, and where proofs are (potentially) non-wellfounded infinite trees. We extend these results to systems with meets and residuals, capturing 'star-continuous' action lattices in a similar way. We recover the equational theory of all action lattices by restricting to regular proofs (with cut)-those proofs that are unfoldings of finite graphs.
