Simple Stochastic Games with Almost-Sure Energy-Parity Objectives are in NP and coNP

18 Jan 2021  ·  Richard Mayr, Sven Schewe, Patrick Totzke, Dominik Wojtczak ·

We study stochastic games with energy-parity objectives, which combine quantitative rewards with a qualitative $\omega$-regular condition: The maximizer aims to avoid running out of energy while simultaneously satisfying a parity condition. We show that the corresponding almost-sure problem, i.e., checking whether there exists a maximizer strategy that achieves the energy-parity objective with probability $1$ when starting at a given energy level $k$, is decidable and in $NP \cap coNP$. The same holds for checking if such a $k$ exists and if a given $k$ is minimal.
