Abstract: Primarily guided with the idea to express zero-time transitions by means of temporal propositional language, we have developed a temporal logic where the time flow is isomorphic to ordinal omega2 (concatenation of omega copies of omega). If we think of omega2 as lexicographically ordered omegaimesomega, then any particular zero-time transition can be represented by states whose indices are all elements of some nimesomega. In order to express non-infinitesimal transitions, we have introduced a new unary temporal operator [omega] (omega-jump), whose effect on the time flow is the same as the effect of alphamapstoalpha+omega in omega2. In terms of lexicographically ordered omegaimesomega, [omega]phi is satisfied in <i,j>-th time instant iff phi is satisfied in <i+1,0>-th time instant. Moreover, in order to formally capture the natural semantics of the until operator mathttU, we have introduced a local variant mathttu of the until operator. More precisely, phi,mathttupsi is satisfied in <i,j>-th time instant iff psi is satisfied in <i,j+k>-th time instant for some nonnegative integer k, and phi is satisfied in <i,j+l>-th time instant for all 0leqslantl<k. As in many of our previous publications, the leitmotif is the usage of infinitary inference rules in order to achieve the strong completeness.
