From Quasi-Dominions to Progress Measures
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
Adding quasi dominions provides additional information on this player that can be leveraged to greatly accelerate convergence to a progress measure. ...
We revisit the approaches to the solution of parity games based on progress measures and show how the notion of quasi dominions can be integrated with those approaches. ...

Solving Mean-Payoff Games via Quasi Dominions
[chapter]
2020
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
We propose a novel algorithm for the solution of mean-payoff games that merges together two seemingly unrelated concepts introduced in the context of parity games, small progress measures and quasi dominions ...
We show that the integration of the two notions can be highly beneficial and significantly speeds up convergence to the problem solution. ...
On the other hand, the best choice for player in position c is to exit from the weak quasi-dominion Q = {c, d}, by choosing the move (c, a) and lifting its measure from 0 to k. ...

A Delayed Promotion Policy for Parity Games
2016
Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science
Recently, a novel technique to compute dominions, called priority promotion, has been proposed, which is based on the notions of quasi dominion, a relaxed form of dominion, and dominion space. ...
Their solution can be reduced to the problem of identifying sets of positions of the game, called dominions, in each of which a player can force a win by remaining in the set forever. ...
In order to instantiate a dominion space, we need to define a suitable query function to compute quasi dominions and a successor operator to ensure progress in the search for a closed dominion. ...

The Strahler Number of a Parity Game
2020
International Colloquium on Automata, Languages and Programming
It is shown that the Strahler number of a parity game is a robust, and hence arguably natural, parameter: it coincides with its alternative version based on trees of progress measures and - remarkably ...
The Strahler number of a parity game is proposed to be defined as the smallest Strahler number of the tree of any of its attractor decompositions. ...
Acknowledgements We thank colleagues in the following human chain for contributing to our education on the Strahler number of a tree: the first and the second authors have learnt it from the third author ...

Attracting Tangles to Solve Parity Games
[chapter]
2018
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
They are also interesting from the theory perspective, because they are widely believed to admit a polynomial solution, but so far no such algorithm is known. ...
We propose a new algorithm to solve parity games based on learning tangles, which are strongly connected subgraphs for which one player has a strategy to win all cycles in the subgraph. ...
Quasi-polynomial Time Progress Measures The quasi-polynomial time progress measures algorithm [12] is similar to small progress measures. ...

Solving Parity Games via Priority Promotion
[chapter]
2016
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
The problem has a rather intriguing status from a complexity theoretic viewpoint, since it belongs to the class UPTime ∩ CoUPTime, and still open is the question whether it can be solved in polynomial ...
In this paper, we propose a new algorithm for the solution of the problem, based on the idea of promoting vertices to higher priorities during the search for winning regions. ...
Our solution to this problem is to proceed in a bottom-up fashion, starting from a weaker notion of α-dominion, called quasi αdominion. ...

Priority Promotion with Parysian Flair
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
We develop an algorithm that combines the advantages of priority promotion - one of the leading approaches to solving large parity games in practice - with the quasi-polynomial time guarantees offered ...
Hybridising these algorithms sounds both natural and difficult, as they both generalise the classic recursive algorithm in different ways that appear to be irreconcilable: while the promotion transcends ...

A Parity Game Tale of Two Counters

We are the first to provide an exponential lower bound to priority promotion with the delayed promotion policy, and the first to provide such a lower bound to tangle learning. ...
The problem is believed to admit a solution in polynomial time, motivating researchers to find candidates for such an algorithm and to defeat these algorithms. ...
Apart from the earlier described algorithms, we consider the APT algorithm [33] , the small progress measures algorithm [28] (SPM), and we also look at recent quasi-polynomial algorithms, namely the ...
