The files are in $KDEDIR/share/apps/katepart/syntax.

They are XML files, and there is some documentation in the kate manual, as 
well as you should look at the existing files for reference.

You can enable the XML plugin and use the language.dtd.xml meta DTD to get 
some typing help for editing such files wihtin Kate, it you have a recent
