Polynomial Time Algorithms for Branching Markov Decision Processes and Probabilistic Min(Max) Polynomial Bellman Equations
Kousha Etessami, Alistair Stewart, Mihalis Yannakakis
We show that one can approximate the least fixed point solution for a multivariate system of monotone probabilistic max(min) polynomial equations, referred to as maxPPSs (and minPP…

Polynomial Time Algorithms for Multi-Type Branching Processes and Stochastic Context-Free Grammars
Kousha Etessami, Alistair Stewart, Mihalis Yannakakis
We show that one can approximate the least fixed point solution for a multivariate system of monotone probabilistic polynomial equations in time polynomial in both the encoding siz…
