Deciding parity games in quasipolynomial time

CS Calude, S Jain, B Khoussainov, W Li… - Proceedings of the 49th …, 2017 - dl.acm.org
It is shown that the parity game can be solved in quasipolynomial time. The parameterised
parity game-with n nodes and m distinct values (aka colours or priorities)-is proven to be in …

[HTML][HTML] Meet your expectations with guarantees: Beyond worst-case synthesis in quantitative games

V Bruyère, E Filiot, M Randour, JF Raskin - Information and Computation, 2017 - Elsevier
Classical analysis of two-player quantitative games involves an adversary (modeling the
environment of the system) which is purely antagonistic and asks for strict guarantees while …

Run-time optimization for learned controllers through quantitative games

G Avni, R Bloem, K Chatterjee, TA Henzinger… - … Aided Verification: 31st …, 2019 - Springer
A controller is a device that interacts with a plant. At each time point, it reads the plant's state
and issues commands with the goal that the plant operates optimally. Constructing optimal …

Combining quantitative and qualitative reasoning in concurrent multi-player games

N Bulling, V Goranko - Autonomous Agents and Multi-Agent Systems, 2022 - Springer
We propose a general framework for modelling and formal reasoning about multi-agent
systems and, in particular, multi-stage games where both quantitative and qualitative …

On stochastic games with multiple objectives

T Chen, V Forejt, M Kwiatkowska, A Simaitis… - … of Computer Science …, 2013 - Springer
We study two-player stochastic games, where the goal of one player is to satisfy a formula
given as a positive boolean combination of expected total reward objectives and the …

Rational verification for nash and subgame-perfect equilibria in graph games

L Brice, JF Raskin… - … Foundations of Computer …, 2023 - drops.dagstuhl.de
We study a natural problem about rational behaviors in multiplayer non-zero-sum sequential
infinite duration games played on graphs: rational verification, that consists in deciding …

Games where you can play optimally with arena-independent finite memory

P Bouyer, S Le Roux, Y Oualhadj… - Logical Methods in …, 2022 - lmcs.episciences.org
For decades, two-player (antagonistic) games on graphs have been a framework of choice
for many important problems in theoretical computer science. A notorious one is controller …

Fixed-dimensional energy games are in pseudo-polynomial time

M Jurdziński, R Lazić, S Schmitz - International Colloquium on Automata …, 2015 - Springer
We generalise the hyperplane separation technique (Chatterjee and Velner, 2013) from
multi-dimensional mean-payoff to energy games, and achieve an algorithm for solving the …

Synthesis for multi-objective stochastic games: An application to autonomous urban driving

T Chen, M Kwiatkowska, A Simaitis… - Quantitative Evaluation of …, 2013 - Springer
We study strategy synthesis for stochastic two-player games with multiple objectives
expressed as a conjunction of LTL and expected total reward goals. For stop** games, the …

Synthesis from LTL specifications with mean-payoff objectives

A Bohy, V Bruyere, E Filiot, JF Raskin - … on Tools and Algorithms for the …, 2013 - Springer
The classical LTL synthesis problem is purely qualitative: the given LTL specification is
realized or not by a reactive system. LTL is not expressive enough to formalize the …
