Algorithms for Equilibria in Concurrent Stopping Games

Léonard Brice, Thomas A. Henzinger, K. S. Thejaswini

Concurrent games are a standard model for multi-agent systems, with Nash equilibrium as their central solution concept. The associated \emph{constrained existence problem}---does a…

Decoupled Planning for Multiple Omega-Regular Objectives

Guy Avni, Thomas A. Henzinger, Kaushik Mallik +2

We study the problem of generating paths on a graph that satisfy a collection of ω-regular objectives. We propose a decoupled framework in which each objective is assigned to an in…

Sharing The Secret: Distributed Privacy-Preserving Monitoring

Mahyar Karimi, K. S. Thejaswini, Roderick Bloem +1

In traditional runtime verification, a system is typically observed by a monolithic monitor. Enforcing privacy in such settings is computationally expensive, as it necessitates hea…

History-Deterministic Büchi Automata are Succinct

Antonio Casares, Keya Prakash, K. S. Thejaswini

We describe a history-deterministic Büchi automaton that has strictly less states than every language-equivalent deterministic Büchi automaton. This solves a problem that had been…

Randomise Alone, Reach as a Team

Léonard Brice, Thomas A. Henzinger, Alipasha Montaseri +2

We study concurrent graph games where n players cooperate against an opponent to reach a set of target states. Unlike traditional settings, we study distributed randomisation: team…

Dicey Games: Shared Sources of Randomness in Distributed Systems

Léonard Brice, Thomas A. Henzinger, K. S. Thejaswini

Consider a 4-player version of Matching Pennies where a team of three players competes against the Devil. Each player simultaneously says "Heads" or "Tails". The team wins if all f…

ε-Stationary Nash Equilibria in Multi-player Stochastic Graph Games

Ali Asadi, Léonard Brice, Krishnendu Chatterjee +1

A strategy profile in a multi-player game is a Nash equilibrium if no player can unilaterally deviate to achieve a strictly better payoff. A profile is an -Nash equilibrium if n…

Privacy-Preserving Runtime Verification

Thomas A. Henzinger, Mahyar Karimi, K. S. Thejaswini

Runtime verification offers scalable solutions to improve the safety and reliability of systems. However, systems that require verification or monitoring by a third party to ensure…

Resolving Nondeterminism with Randomness

Thomas A. Henzinger, Keya Prakash, K. S. Thejaswini

In automata theory, while determinisation provides a standard route to solving many common problems in automata theory, some weak forms of nondeterminism can be dealt with in some…

Finding equilibria: simpler for pessimists, simplest for optimists

Léonard Brice, Thomas Henzinger, K. S. Thejaswini

We consider simple stochastic games with terminal-node rewards and multiple players, who have differing perceptions of risk. Specifically, we study risk-sensitive equilibria (RSEs)…

Rabin Games and Colourful Universal Trees

Rupak Majumdar, Irmak Saglam, K. S. Thejaswini

We provide an algorithm to solve Rabin and Streett games over graphs with vertices, edges, and colours that runs in time and $O…

Simple and tight complexity lower bounds for solving Rabin games

Antonio Casares, Marcin Pilipczuk, Michał Pilipczuk +2

We give a simple proof that assuming the Exponential Time Hypothesis (ETH), determining the winner of a Rabin game cannot be done in time , where $k…

Solving Two-Player Games under Progress Assumptions

Anne-Kathrin Schmuck, K. S. Thejaswini, Irmak Sağlam +1

This paper considers the problem of solving infinite two-player games over finite graphs under various classes of progress assumptions motivated by applications in cyber-physical s…

On History-Deterministic One-Counter Nets

Keya Prakash, K. S. Thejaswini

We consider the model of history-deterministic one-counter nets (OCNs). History-determinism is a property of transition systems that allows for a limited kind of non-determinism wh…

Adaptive Synchronisation of Pushdown Automata

A. R. Balasubramanian, K. S. Thejaswini

We introduce the notion of adaptive synchronisation for pushdown automata, in which there is an external observer who has no knowledge about the current state of the pushdown autom…

A symmetric attractor-decomposition lifting algorithm for parity games

Marcin Jurdziński, Rémi Morvan, Pierre Ohlmann +1

Progress-measure lifting algorithms for solving parity games have the best worst-case asymptotic runtime, but are limited by their asymmetric nature, and known from the work of Cze…

The Strahler number of a parity game

Laure Daviaud, Marcin Jurdziński, K. S. Thejaswini

The Strahler number of a rooted tree is the largest height of a perfect binary tree that is its minor. The Strahler number of a parity game is proposed to be defined as the smalles…

Universal Algorithms for Parity Games and Nested Fixpoints

Marcin Jurdziński, Rémi Morvan, K. S. Thejaswini

An attractor decomposition meta-algorithm for solving parity games is given that generalises the classic McNaughton-Zielonka algorithm and its recent quasi-polynomial variants due…
