\erin \subsubsection{Equivalence of PLTL Formulae} Now that we have defined the formal semantics of PLTL, we can define equivalence on PLTL formulas. \begin{definition}[Equivalence of PLTL Formulae] PLTL formulae $\phi_1,\phi_2$ are equivalent, denoted $\phi_1 \equiv \phi_2$ iff they verify the following property: \[\text{for any path } \pi \text{ and any position } i, \pi \vDash_i \phi \Leftrightarrow \pi \vDash_i \psi \qedhere\] \end{definition} Additionally, we can define another form of equivalence, initial equivalence: \begin{definition}[Initial Equivalence of PLTL Formulae] PLTL formulae $\phi_1,\phi_2$ are initially equivalent, denoted $\phi_1 \equiv_0 \phi_2$ iff they verify the following property: \[\text{for any path } \pi, \pi \vDash_0 \phi \Leftrightarrow \pi \vDash_0 \psi \qedhere\] \end{definition} \cbend
