Description

Given a model of a system and an objective, the model-checking problem asks whether the model satisfies the objective.

In this case, the model is a standard graph, and the objective is Büchi: given a set of target vertices $T\subseteq V$, determine whether or not there is a path that visits the set $T$ an infinite amount of times.

Furthermore, in the conjunctive problem, you are given multiple Büchi objectives (i.e. multiple target sets $T_i$) and you are to determine whether or not there is a path where all of the Büchi objectives are satisfied (i.e. whether or not an infinite path visits all target sets $T_i$ an infinite amount of times).

OV assume: OVH
then: there is no $O(m^{2-\epsilon})$ or $O(\min_{1 \leq i \leq k} b_i \cdot (k \cdot m)^{1-\epsilon})$-time algorithm (for any $\epsilon > {0}$ for generalized Büchi games. In particular there is no such algorithm for deciding whether the winning set is non-empty or deciding whether a specifc vertex is in the winning set.
