The $k$-Even Set problem is a parameterized variant of the Minimum Distance Problem of linear codes over $\mathbb F_2$, which can be stated as follows: given a generator matrix $\mathbf A$ and an integer $k$, determine whether the code…
Timed-arc Petri nets (TAPN) are a well-known time extension of the Petri net model and several translations to networks of timed automata have been proposed for this model. We present a direct, DBM-based algorithm for forward reachability…
The reachability semantics for Petri nets can be studied using open Petri nets. For us an "open" Petri net is one with certain places designated as inputs and outputs via a cospan of sets. We can compose open Petri nets by gluing the…
Regular model checking is a well-established technique for the verification of regular transition systems (RTS): transition systems whose initial configurations and transition relation can be effectively encoded as regular languages. In…
Probabilistic guarantees of safety and performance are important in constrained dynamical systems with stochastic uncertainty. We consider the stochastic reachability problem, which maximizes the probability that the state remains within…

The reachability problem in cooperating systems is known to be PSPACE-complete. We show here that this problem remains PSPACE-complete when we restrict the communication structure between the subsystems in various ways. For this purpose we…
We consider the problem of under and over-approximating the image of general vector-valued functions over bounded sets, and apply the proposed solution to the estimation of reachable sets of uncertain non-linear discrete-time dynamical…
The coverability and boundedness problems for Petri nets are known to be Expspace-complete. Given a Petri net, we associate a graph with it. With the vertex cover number k of this graph and the maximum arc weight W as parameters, we show…
A searcher is tasked with exploring a graph with edge lengths and vertex weights, starting from a designated vertex. Initially, only the starting vertex is considered explored. At each step, the searcher adds an edge to the solution,…
The literature on reachability analysis methods for neural networks currently only focuses on uncertainties on the network's inputs. In this paper, we introduce two new approaches for the reachability analysis of neural networks with…
Petri nets proved useful to describe various real-world systems, but many of their properties are very hard to check. To alleviate this difficulty, subclasses are often considered. The class of weighted marked graphs with relaxed place…
A method is presented to obtain an inner-approximation of the backward reachable set (BRS) of a given target tube, along with an admissible controller that maintains trajectories inside this tube. The proposed optimization algorithms are…
One often wishes for the ability to formally analyze large-scale systems---typically, however, one can either formally analyze a rather small system or informally analyze a large-scale system. This work tries to further close this…
A constant-rate multi-mode system is a hybrid system that can switch freely among a finite set of modes, and whose dynamics is specified by a finite number of real-valued variables with mode-dependent constant rates. Alur, Wojtczak, and…
For a given labelled transition system (LTS), synthesis is the task to find an unlabelled Petri net with an isomorphic reachability graph. Even when just demanding an embedding into a reachability graph instead of an isomorphism, a solution…
In this paper, we study the reachability of two closely related matrices appearing in the analysis of linear time-varying (LTV) systems over a finite time interval, namely, its closed-loop state transition matrix via a state feedback…
In this paper we propose an improvement for flowpipe-construction-based reachability analysis techniques for hybrid systems. Such methods apply iterative successor computations to pave the reachable region of the state space by state sets…
We consider parameterized verification of systems executing according to the total store ordering (TSO) semantics. The processes manipulate abstract data types over potentially infinite domains. We present a framework that translates the…
In the last two decades, there has been much progress on model checking of both probabilistic systems and higher-order programs. In spite of the emergence of higher-order probabilistic programming languages, not much has been done to…
