Expressiveness and Closure Properties for Quantitative Languages

Krishnendu Chatterjee ; Laurent Doyen ; Thomas A Henzinger.

Weighted automata are nondeterministic automata with numerical weights on transitions. They can define quantitative languages~$L$ that assign to each word~$w$ a real number~$L(w)$. In the case of infinite words, the value of a run is naturally computed as the maximum, limsup, liminf, limit-average,&nbsp;[&hellip;]

Aspect-oriented linearizability proofs

Soham Chakraborty ; Thomas A. Henzinger ; Ali Sezgin ; Viktor Vafeiadis.

Linearizability of concurrent data structures is usually proved by monolithic simulation arguments relying on the identification of the so-called linearization points. Regrettably, such proofs, whether manual or automatic, are often complicated and scale poorly to advanced non-blocking concurrency&nbsp;[&hellip;]

Quantitative Automata under Probabilistic Semantics

Krishnendu Chatterjee ; Thomas A. Henzinger ; Jan Otop.

Automata with monitor counters, where the transitions do not depend on counter values, and nested weighted automata are two expressive automata-theoretic frameworks for quantitative properties. For a well-studied and wide class of quantitative functions, we establish that automata with monitor&nbsp;[&hellip;]

Determinacy in Discrete-Bidding Infinite-Duration Games

Milad Aghajohari ; Guy Avni ; Thomas A. Henzinger.

In two-player games on graphs, the players move a token through a graph to produce an infinite path, which determines the winner of the game. Such games are central in formal methods since they model the interaction between a non-terminating system and its environment. In bidding games the players&nbsp;[&hellip;]
