Abstract
We present a general method for proving DP-hardness of problems related to formal verification of one-counter automata. For this we show a reduction of the SAT-UNSAT problem to the truth problem for a fragment of (Presburger) arithmetic. The fragment contains only special formulas with one free variable, and is particularly apt for transforming to simulation-like equivalences on one-counter automata. In this way we show that the membership problem for any relation subsuming bisimilarity and subsumed by simulation preorder is DP-hard (even) for one-counter nets (where the counter cannot be tested for zero). We also show DP-hardness for deciding simulation between one-counter automata and finite-state systems (in both directions), and for the model-checking problem with one-counter nets and the branching-time temporal logic EF.
Abstract (in Czech)
Je podána obecná metoda pro dokazování DP dolního složitostního odhadu pro problémy související s formální verifikací automatů s jedním čítačem. Za tímto účelem je prezentována redukce problému SAT-UNSAT na problém platnosti formulí vhodného fragmentu Presburgerovy aritmetiky. Tento fragment obsahuje pouze formule s jednou volnou proměnnou a je velmi vhodný pro redukci na problém simulačních ekvivalencí mezi procesy automatů s jedním čítačem. Tímto způsobem je prokázána DP-těžkost libovolné ekvivalence mezi simulační a bisimulační ekvivalencí. Je také dokázána DP-těžkost problému ověřování platnosti formulí temporální logiky EF.
