Precise complexity results are derived for the model checking problems for MTL (metric temporal logic) and TPTL (timed propositional temporal logic) on (in)finite data words and deterministic one-counter machines. Depending on the number of register variables and the encoding of numbers in constraints (unary or binary), the complexity is either P-complete or PSPACE-complete.

We prove that integer programming with three alternating quantifiers is NPcomplete, even for a fixed number of variables. This complements earlier results by Lenstra and Kannan, which together say that integer programming with at most two alternating quantifiers can be done in polynomial time for a fixed number of variables. As a byproduct of the proof, we show that for two polytopes P,Q ⊂ R, c...

A partial order or poset   , P X   on a (finite) base set X determines the set   P  of linear extensions of P . The problem of computing, for a poset P , the cardinality of   P  is #P-complete. A set   1 2 , , , k P P P  of posets on X covers the set of linear orders that is the union of the   i P  . Given linear orders 1 2 , , , m L L L  on X , the Poset Cover problem is to de...

BACKGROUND Multiple materials and techniques have been reported for complete denture impressions in literature. The aim of the study was to assess the trends in complete denture impression materials and techniques among general dental practitioners (GDP) and specialists (SP) in Pakistan. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, self-designed-structured questionnaires were distributed among 500 ...

Piecewise testable languages form the first level of the Straubing-Thérien hierarchy. The membership problem for this level is decidable and testing if the language of a DFA is piecewise testable is NL-complete. The question has not yet been addressed for NFAs. We fill in this gap by showing that it is PSpace-complete. The main result is then the lower-bound complexity of separability of regula...

The study of infection processes is an important field of science both from the theoretical and the practical point of view, and has many applications. In this paper we focus on the popular Independent Cascade model and its generalization. Unfortunately the exact computation of infection probabilities is a #P-complete problem [8], so one cannot expect fast exact algorithms. We propose several m...

We completely classify the computational complexity of the basic achievement and maintenance agent design problems in bounded environments when these problems are parameterized by the number of environment states and the number of agent actions. The different problems are P-complete, NP-complete, co-NP-complete or PSPACE-complete (when they are not trivial). We also consider alternative achieve...
