Reachability in Vector Addition System with States Parameterized by Geometric Dimension

Authors: Yangluo Zheng

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 348, 36th International Conference on Concurrency Theory (CONCUR 2025)

Abstract

The geometric dimension of a vector addition system with states (VASS), emerged in Leroux and Schmitz (2019) and formalized by Fu, Yang, and Zheng (2024), quantifies the dimension of the vector space spanned by cycle effects in the system. This paper examines the VASS reachability problem through the lens of geometric dimension, revealing key differences from the traditional dimensional parameterization. Notably, we establish that the reachability problem for both geometrically 1-dimensional and 2-dimensional VASS is PSPACE-complete, achieved by extending the pumping technique initially proposed by Czerwiński et al. (2019).

Improved Algorithm for Reachability in d-VASS

Authors: Yuxi Fu, Qizhe Yang, and Yangluo Zheng

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 297, 51st International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2024)

Abstract

An 𝖥_{d} upper bound for the reachability problem in vector addition systems with states (VASS) in fixed dimension is given, where 𝖥_d is the d-th level of the Grzegorczyk hierarchy of complexity classes. The new algorithm combines the idea of the linear path scheme characterization of the reachability in the 2-dimension VASSes with the general decomposition algorithm by Mayr, Kosaraju and Lambert. The result improves the 𝖥_{d + 4} upper bound due to Leroux and Schmitz (LICS 2019).
