On the Complexity of Equivalence and Minimisation for Q-weighted Automata

Stefan Kiefer ; Andrzej Murawski ; Joel Ouaknine ; Bjoern Wachter ; James Worrell.

This paper is concerned with the computational complexity of equivalence and minimisation for automata with transition weights in the field Q of rational numbers. We use polynomial identity testing and the Isolation Lemma to obtain complexity bounds, focussing on the class NC of problems within P&nbsp;[&hellip;]

Game Characterization of Probabilistic Bisimilarity, and Applications to Pushdown Automata

Vojtěch Forejt ; Petr Jančar ; Stefan Kiefer ; James Worrell.

We study the bisimilarity problem for probabilistic pushdown automata (pPDA) and subclasses thereof. Our definition of pPDA allows both probabilistic and non-deterministic branching, generalising the classical notion of pushdown automata (without epsilon-transitions). We first show a general&nbsp;[&hellip;]
