摘要
It was shown recently by Borzechowski et al. (2026) that Propositional Dynamic Logic (PDL) has Craig Interpolation. Whether test-free PDL, i.e. PDL without the `?' operator, has interpolation remained open. Here we answer this question in the negative with a counterexample: a test-free PDL validity for which no test-free interpolant exists. The validity only uses one atomic program and the Kleene star, so it implies that the basic modal logic K extended with the reflexive transitive closure does not have interpolation, as previously shown by Studer (2009). The example was originally obtained using LLMs and Lean. We describe our methodology and provide links to all prompts, LLM output summaries as well as the Lean proof.
