Observers are write-only variables, that is, they do not affect the control flow of the automaton; thus MPTA lie between timed and hybrid automata in expressiveness. Previous work considered observers with non-negative slope in every location. In this paper we treat observers that have both positive and negative rates. Our main result is an algorithm to decide a gap version of the reachability problem for this variant of MPTA. We translate the gap reachability problem into a gap satisfiability problem for mixed integer-real systems of nonlinear constraints. Our main technical contribution -- a result of independent interest -- is a procedure to solve such contraints via a combination of branch-and-bound and relaxation-and-rounding.","PeriodicalId":501124,"journal":{"name":"arXiv - CS - Formal Languages and Automata Theory","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141771875","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While for\u0000some automata the exponential blow-up in their number of states is unavoidable,\u0000we show that in general, any approximation of state complexity with polynomial\u0000precision remains PSPACE-hard. The same is true when using the subset\u0000construction to determinize the NFA, meaning that it is PSPACE-hard to predict\u0000whether subset construction will produce an exponential ''blow-up'' in the\u0000number of states or not. To give an explanation for its behaviour, we propose\u0000the notion of subset complexity, which serves as an upper bound on the size of\u0000subset construction. Due to it simple and intuitive nature it allows to\u0000identify large classes of automata which can have limited non-determinism and\u0000completely avoid the ''blow-up''.

{"title":"MITL Model Checking via Generalized Timed Automata and a New Liveness Algorithm","authors":"S. Akshay, Paul Gastin, R. Govind, B. Srivathsan","doi":"arxiv-2407.08452","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/arxiv-2407.08452","url":null,"abstract":"The translation of Metric Interval Temporal Logic (MITL) to timed automata is\u0000a topic that has been extensively studied. A key challenge here is the\u0000conversion of future modalities into equivalent automata. Typical conversions\u0000equip the automata with a guess-and-check mechanism to ascertain the truth of\u0000future modalities. Guess-and-check can be naturally implemented via\u0000alternation. However, since timed automata tools do not handle alternation,\u0000existing methods perform an additional step of converting the alternating timed\u0000automata into timed automata. This de-alternation step proceeds by an intricate\u0000finite abstraction of the space of configurations of the alternating automaton. Recently, a model of generalized timed automata (GTA) has been proposed. The\u0000model comes with several powerful additional features, and yet, the best known\u0000zone-based reachability algorithms for timed automata have been extended to the\u0000GTA model, with the same complexity for all the zone operations. We provide a\u0000new concise translation from MITL to GTA. In particular, for the timed until\u0000modality, our translation offers an exponential improvement w.r.t. the\u0000state-of-the-art. Thanks to this conversion, MITL model checking reduces to checking liveness\u0000for GTAs. However, no liveness algorithm is known for GTAs. Due to the presence\u0000of future clocks, there is no finite time-abstract bisimulation (region\u0000equivalence) for GTAs, whereas liveness algorithms for timed automata crucially\u0000rely on the presence of the finite region equivalence. As our second\u0000contribution, we provide a new zone-based algorithm for checking Buchi\u0000non-emptiness in GTAs, which circumvents this fundamental challenge.","PeriodicalId":501124,"journal":{"name":"arXiv - CS - Formal Languages and Automata Theory","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141614301","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
