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;]

Trace Refinement in Labelled Markov Decision Processes

Nathanaël Fijalkow ; Stefan Kiefer ; Mahsa Shirmohammadi.

Given two labelled Markov decision processes (MDPs), the trace-refinement problem asks whether for all strategies of the first MDP there exists a strategy of the second MDP such that the induced labelled Markov chains are trace-equivalent. We show that this problem is decidable in polynomial time if&nbsp;[&hellip;]
