Algebraic semantics for hybrid logics

We introduce hybrid algebras as algebraic semantics for hybrid languages with nominals and, possibly, the satisfaction operator. We establish a duality between hybrid algebras and the descriptive two-sorted general frames of Ten Cate. We show that all axiomatic extensions of the basic hybrid logics, with or without the satisfaction operator, are complete with respect to their classes of hybrid algebras. Moreover, we show that by adding the usual non-orthodox rules to these logics, they become complete with respect to their classes of permeated hybrid algebras, corresponding to strongly descriptive two-sorted general frames.
