Good for Games Automata: From Nondeterminism to Alternation
2019
International Conference on Concurrency Theory
We then show that alternating GFG automata over finite words, and weak automata over infinite words, are not more succinct than deterministic automata, and that determinizing Büchi and co-Büchi alternating ...
We leave open the question of whether alternating GFG automata of stronger acceptance conditions allow for doubly-exponential succinctness compared to deterministic automata. ...
In Section 6, we focus on weak, Büchi, and co-Büchi automata, and then view α as a subset of Q. Games. A finite Σ-arena is a finite Σ×{A, E}-labeled Kripke structure. ...

Nondeterminism in the Presence of a Diverse or Unknown Future
[chapter]

We show that GFT=GFG⊃DBP, and describe a determinization construction for GFG automata. ...
Hoping to retain some of the advantages of nondeterministic automata, researchers have studied restricted classes of nondeterministic automata. ...
GFG Büchi and co-Büchi Automata are not DBP There is a strong intuition that a GFG NBW can be determinized by pruning: By definition, the choices of a GFG NBW are independent on the future. ...

A LTL Fragment for GR(1)-Synthesis
2011
Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science
To this end, manually written deterministic omega-automata having GR(1) conditions were used instead of the original LTL specifications. ...
However, new ideas have recently renewed the interest in LTL synthesis: One major new contribution in this area is the recent work of Piterman et al. who showed how polynomial time synthesis can be achieved ...
Another one is the observation that the negation of each formula that can be translated to a deterministic Büchi automaton can be translated to a non-deterministic co-Büchi automaton. ...

An Effective Decision Procedure for Linear Arithmetic with Integer and Real Variables

The contribution of this paper is to show, using topological arguments, that only a restricted class of automata on infinite words are necessary for handling real and integer linear arithmetic. ...
Previous work has shown that this theory can be dealt with by using finite automata on infinite words, but this involves some difficult and delicate to implement algorithms. ...

Safety and Co-safety Comparator Automata for Discounted-Sum Inclusion

2019
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Discounted-sum comparator automata, or DS-comparators in short, are Büchi automata that read two infinite sequences of weights synchronously and relate their discounted-sum. ...
Motivated by the connections between discounted-sum and Büchi automata, this paper undertakes an investigation of language-theoretic properties of DS-comparators in order to mitigate the challenges of ...

How Deterministic are Good-For-Games Automata?
[article]
2017
arXiv
pre-print
In particular, when Rabin or Streett GFG automata have equivalent Buchi or co-Buchi GFG automata, respectively, then such equivalent automata can be defined on a substructure of the original automata. ...
This practical issue is of special interest in the context of games, where the Buchi and co-Buchi conditions admit memoryless strategies for both players. ...
Moreover, the best known determinization construction of GFG Büchi automata is quadratic, whereas determinization of GFG co-Büchi automata has an exponential blow-up lower bound [6] . ...

We argue that minimisation of finite automata, hyper-minimisation, relaxed minimisation, and the minimisation of deterministic Buchi (or Co-Buchi) automata are operations of increasing reduction power, ...
(One is often not really interested in differences on words that one never observes.) It surely is the better starting point for minimising DBAs and DCAs. ...

Can Nondeterminism Help Complementation?

Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science
In the case of nondeterministic finite automata on finite words (NFA), complementation and determinization have the same state complexity, namely Theta(2^n) where n is the state size. ...
Complementation and determinization are two fundamental notions in automata theory. The close relationship between the two has been well observed in the literature. ...
