The Orbit Problem asks whether the orbit of a point under a matrix reaches a given target set. When the target is a single point, the problem was shown to be decidable in polynomial time by Kannan and Lipton. This decidability result was…
We consider higher-dimensional versions of Kannan and Lipton's Orbit Problem---determining whether a target vector space V may be reached from a starting point x under repeated applications of a linear transformation A. Answering two…
The \emph{Orbit Problem} consists of determining, given a linear transformation $A$ on $\mathbb{Q}^d$, together with vectors $x$ and $y$, whether the orbit of $x$ under repeated applications of $A$ can ever reach $y$. This problem was…
The higher-dimensional version of Kannan and Lipton's Orbit Problem asks whether it is decidable if a target subspace can be reached from a starting point under repeated application of a linear transformation. Similarly, the continuous…
We consider polyhedral versions of Kannan and Lipton's Orbit Problem (STOC '80 and JACM '86)---determining whether a target polyhedron V may be reached from a starting point x under repeated applications of a linear transformation A in an…
The Orbit Problem consists of determining, given a matrix $A\in \mathbb{R}^{d\times d}$ and vectors $x,y\in \mathbb{R}^d$, whether there exists $n\in \mathbb{N}$ such that $A^n=y$. This problem was shown to be decidable in a seminal work of…
We study a parametric version of the Kannan-Lipton Orbit Problem for linear dynamical systems. We show decidability in the case of one parameter and Skolem-hardness with two or more parameters. More precisely, consider a $d$-dimensional…
The orbit problem is at the heart of symmetry reduction methods for model checking concurrent systems. It asks whether two given configurations in a concurrent system (represented as finite strings over some finite alphabet) are in the same…
We present the notion of orbit decidability into a more general framework, exploring interesting generalizations and variations of this algorithmic problem. A recent theorem by Bogopolski-Martino-Ventura gave a renovated protagonism to this…
We study orbit-finite systems of linear equations, in the setting of sets with atoms. Our principal contribution is a decision procedure for solvability of such systems. The procedure works for every field (and even commutative ring) under…
We present an exact solution of the equations for orbit determination of a two body system in a hyperbolic or parabolic motion. In solving this problem, we extend the method employed by Asada, Akasaka and Kasai (AAK) for a binary system in…
The Semialgebraic Orbit Problem is a fundamental reachability question that arises in the analysis of discrete-time linear dynamical systems such as automata, Markov chains, recurrence sequences, and linear while loops. An instance of the…
We settle the equivalence between the problem of hitting a polyhedral set by the orbit of a linear map and the intersection of a regular language and a language of permutations of binary words (the permutation filter realizability problem).…
We prove the undecidability of determining whether a Turing machine yields an eventually periodic trajectory. From this, we deduce the undecidability of orbit finiteness in the polynomial dynamical system on infinite tuples of integers.
An infinite set is orbit-finite if, up to permutations of the underlying structure of atoms, it has only finitely many elements. We study a generalisation of linear programming where constraints are expressed by an orbit-finite system of…
We study the decidability of the Skolem Problem, the Positivity Problem, and the Ultimate Positivity Problem for linear recurrences with real number initial values and real number coefficients in the bit-model of real computation. We show…
When a group acts on a set, it naturally partitions it into orbits, giving rise to orbit problems. These are natural algorithmic problems, as symmetries are central in numerous questions and structures in physics, mathematics, computer…
In this paper, we address the problem of determining a function in terms of its orbital integrals on Lorentzian symmetric spaces. It has been solved by S. Helgason for even-dimensional isotropic Lorentzian symmetric spaces via a limit…
We study fundamental reachability problems on pseudo-orbits of linear dynamical systems. Pseudo-orbits can be viewed as a model of computation with limited precision and pseudo-reachability can be thought of as a robust version of classical…
We prove an algebraic extension theorem for the computably enumerable sets, $\mathcal{E}$. Using this extension theorem and other work we then show if $A$ and $\hat{A}$ are automorphic via $\Psi$ then they are automorphic via $\Lambda$…
