@inproceedings{2213, abstract = {We consider two-player partial-observation stochastic games on finitestate graphs where player 1 has partial observation and player 2 has perfect observation. The winning condition we study are ε-regular conditions specified as parity objectives. The qualitative-analysis problem given a partial-observation stochastic game and a parity objective asks whether there is a strategy to ensure that the objective is satisfied with probability 1 (resp. positive probability). These qualitative-analysis problems are known to be undecidable. However in many applications the relevant question is the existence of finite-memory strategies, and the qualitative-analysis problems under finite-memory strategies was recently shown to be decidable in 2EXPTIME.We improve the complexity and show that the qualitative-analysis problems for partial-observation stochastic parity games under finite-memory strategies are EXPTIME-complete; and also establish optimal (exponential) memory bounds for finite-memory strategies required for qualitative analysis.}, author = {Chatterjee, Krishnendu and Doyen, Laurent and Nain, Sumit and Vardi, Moshe}, location = {Grenoble, France}, pages = {242 -- 257}, publisher = {Springer}, title = {{The complexity of partial-observation stochastic parity games with finite-memory strategies}}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-642-54830-7_16}, volume = {8412}, year = {2014}, }
