Bisimulation Equivalence of Pushdown Automata Is Ackermann-Complete

Authors: Wenbo Zhang, Qiang Yin, Huan Long, and Xian Xu

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 168, 47th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2020)


Abstract
Deciding bisimulation equivalence of two pushdown automata is one of the most fundamental problems in formal verification. Though Sénizergues established decidability of this problem in 1998, it has taken a long time to understand its complexity: the problem was proven to be non-elementary in 2013, and only recently, Jančar and Schmitz showed that it has an Ackermann upper bound. We improve the lower bound to Ackermann-hard, and thus close the complexity gap.

Two Lower Bounds for BPA

Authors: Mingzhang Huang and Qiang Yin

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 85, 28th International Conference on Concurrency Theory (CONCUR 2017)


Abstract
Branching bisimilarity of normed Basic Process Algebra (nBPA) was claimed to be EXPTIME-hard in previous papers without any explicit proof. Recently it has been pointed out by Petr Jancar that the claim lacked proper justification. In this paper, we develop a new complete proof for the EXPTIME-hardness of branching bisimilarity of nBPA. We also prove that the associated regularity problem of nBPA is PSPACE-hard. This improves previous P-hard result.
