The P versus NP problem asks whether every language verifiable in polynomial time can also be decided in deterministic polynomial time. In this paper, we present a constructive proof that P = NP by introducing a universal, graph-based…

Intuitively, if we can prove that a program terminates, we expect some conclusion regarding its complexity. But the passage from termination proofs to complexity bounds is not always clear. In this work we consider Monotonicity Constraint…

We study the emptiness and $\lambda$-reachability problems for unary and binary Probabilistic Finite Automata (PFA) and characterise the complexity of these problems in terms of the degree of ambiguity of the automaton and the size of its…

We consider the time-bounded reachability problem for continuous-time Markov decision processes. We show that the problem is decidable subject to Schanuel's conjecture. Our decision procedure relies on the structure of optimal policies and…

Leroux has proved that unreachability in Petri nets can be witnessed by a Presburger separator, i.e. if a marking $\vec{m}_\text{src}$ cannot reach a marking $\vec{m}_\text{tgt}$, then there is a formula $\varphi$ of Presburger arithmetic…

Several properly countable unions of algebraic sets in $\mathbb{C}^n$ are definable in $\mathbb{C}(t)$ including the set CM of $j$-invariants of complex elliptic curves with complex multiplication. It has been suggested that one could prove…

We address the satisfiability problem for string constraints that combine relational constraints represented by transducers, word equations, and string length constraints. This problem is undecidable in general. Therefore, we propose a new…

We prove that the well-known (strong) fully-concurrent bisimilarity and the novel i-causal-net bisimilarity, which is a sligtlhy coarser variant of causal-net bisimilarity, are decidable for finite bounded Petri nets. The proofs are based…

In an ever expanding set of research and application areas, deep neural networks (DNNs) set the bar for algorithm performance. However, depending upon additional constraints such as processing power and execution time limits, or…

Detectability describes the property of a system to uniquely determine, after a finite number of observations, the current and subsequent states. In this paper, to reduce the complexity of checking the detectability properties in the…

Modeling of real-world systems with Petri nets allows to benefit from their generic concepts of parallelism, synchronisation and conflict, and obtain a concise yet expressive system representation. Algorithms for synthesis of a net from a…

Petri Nets (PN) are a central, theoretically sound model for concurrent or distributed systems but, at least in their classical definition, not expressive enough to represent dynamic reconfiguration capabilities. On the other side,…

We study linear-time temporal logics interpreted over data words with multiple attributes. We restrict the atomic formulas to equalities of attribute values in successive positions and to repetitions of attribute values in the future or…

In this paper, we propose a decision procedure of reachability for linear system {\xi}' = A{\xi} + u, where the matrix A's eigenvalues can be arbitrary algebraic numbers and the input u is a vector of trigonometric-exponential polynomials.…

It is well known that the reachability problem for simply-typed lambda calculus with recursive definitions and finite base-type values (finitary PCF) is decidable. A recent paper by Dal Lago and Ghyselen has shown that the same problem…

In time Petri nets (TPNs), time and control are tightly connected: time measurement for a transition starts only when all resources needed to fire it are available. Further, upper bounds on duration of enabledness can force transitions to…
