In this paper, we propose a new temporal logic for expressing and reasoning about probabilistic hyperproperties.Hyperpropertiescharacterize the relation between different independent executions of a system.Probabilistichyperproperties express quantitative dependencies between such executions. The standard temporal logics for probabilistic systems, i.e.,PCTLandPCTLcan refer only to a single path at a time and, hence, cannot express many probabilistic hyperproperties of interest. The logic proposed in this paper,HyperPCTL, adds explicit and simultaneous quantification over multiple traces toPCTL. Such quantification allows expressing probabilistic hyperproperties. A model checking algorithm for the proposed logic is also introduced for discrete-time Markov chains.
