The games are concurrent: in each round, the two players (player 1 and player 2) choose their moves independently and simultaneously; the current state and the two moves determine the successor state. We consider ω-regular winning conditions specified as parity objectives. Both players are allowed to use randomization when choosing their moves. We study the computation of the limit-winning set of states, consisting of the states where the sup-inf value of the game for player 1 is 1: in other words, a state is limit-winning if player 1 can ensure a probability of winning arbitrarily close to 1. We show that the limit-winning set can be computed in O(n2d+2) time, where n is the size of the game structure and 2d is the number of priorities (or colors). The membership problem of whether a state belongs to the limit-winning set can be decided in NP ∩ coNP. While this complexity is the same as for the simpler class of turn-based parity games, where in each state only one of the two players has a choice of moves, our algorithms are considerably more involved than those for turn-based games. This is because concurrent games do not satisfy two of the most fundamental properties of turn-based parity games. First, in concurrent games limit-winning strategies require randomization; and second, they require infinite memory."}],"date_created":"2018-12-11T12:02:51Z","status":"public","author":[{"first_name":"Krishnendu","orcid":"0000-0002-4561-241X","last_name":"Chatterjee","full_name":"Chatterjee, Krishnendu","id":"2E5DCA20-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87"},{"full_name":"De Alfaro, Luca","last_name":"De Alfaro","first_name":"Luca"},{"last_name":"Henzinger","first_name":"Thomas A","orcid":"0000−0002−2985−7724","id":"40876CD8-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Henzinger, Thomas A"}],"issue":"4","publication_status":"published","article_number":"28","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publication":"ACM Transactions on Computational Logic (TOCL)","scopus_import":1,"_id":"3354","doi":"10.1145/1970398.1970404","type":"journal_article","intvolume":"        12","citation":{"ama":"Chatterjee K, De Alfaro L, Henzinger TA.
