  Abstract of: Universal coalgebra: a theory of systems
Coalgebras, which are the dual of algebras, turned out to be suited, moreover, as models for certain types of automata and more generally, for (transition and dynamical) systems.
Such a principle was missing for coalgebras until the work of Aczel (1988) on a theory of non-wellfounded sets, in which he introduced a proof principle nowadays called coinduction.
Some standard results from universal algebra are reformulated (using the afore mentioned correspondence) and proved for a large class of coalgebras, leading to a series of results on, e.g., the lattices of subcoalgebras and bisimulations, simple coalgebras and coinduction, and a covariety theorem for coalgebras similar to Birkhoff's variety theorem.

 Coalgebra Workshop
Coalgebra is beginning to develop into a field of its own, with its own proof-methods (involving bisimulations and invariants).
This workshop will be devoted to both an introduction to basic coalgebraic notions and techniques, and also to some recent advances in the theory of coalgebras.
In particular, a tutorial is available, containing an introduction to coalgebras and coinduction (with many references).

The applications of the presented categorical analysis span across the gamut of the applications of coinduction, from modelling of computation to solving differential equations.
This makes an attractive analogy with the definition of the ordinal omega itself as the initial algebra of the functor prepending the unity, with both definitions made in the category of posets.
The elements of the final coalgebra are thus natural representatives of bisimilarity classes, and a denotational semantics of processes can be developed in a final-coalgebra-enriched category where arrows are processes, canonically represented.

 CiteULike: A Concrete Final Coalgebra Theorem for ZF Set Theory   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
A special final coalgebra theorem, in the style of Aczel's [2], is proved within standard Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory.
Analogues of Aczel's Solution and Substitution Lemmas are proved in the style of Rutten and Turi [12].
