Abstract

The reachability problem for vector addition systems with states (VASS) has been shown to be \textsc{Ackermann}-complete. For every k3k\geq 3, a completeness result for the kk-dimensional VASS reachability problem is not yet available. It is shown in this paper that the 33-dimensional VASS reachability problem is in \textsc{Tower}, improving upon the current best upper bound F7\mathbf{F}_7 established by Leroux and Schmidt in 2019.
