Indexed and fibered structures for partial and total correctness assertions

Hoare Logic has a long tradition in formal verification and has been continuously developed and used to verify a broad class of programs, including sequential, object-oriented, and concurrent programs. Here we focus on partial and total correctness assertions within the framework of Hoare logic and show that a comprehensive categorical analysis of its axiomatic semantics needs the languages of indexed and fibered category theory. We consider Hoare formulas with local, finite contexts, of program and logical variables. The structural features of Hoare assertions are presented in an indexed setting, while the logical features of deduction are modeled in the fibered one.
