      Comments on "A modified reachability tree approach to analysis of unbounded Petri nets" 

      Ru, Y.; Wu, W.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N. (2006)
      The above paper introduced the construction of a modified reachability tree (MRT) for (unbounded) Petri nets and its application to reachability, liveness, and deadlock analysis. This note shows via a counterexample that ...

      Complexity of rational and irrational nash equilibria 

      Bilò, Vittorio; Mavronicolas, Marios (2014)
      We introduce two new natural decision problems, denoted as ∃ RATIONAL NASH and ∃ IRRATIONAL NASH, pertinent to the rationality and irrationality, respectively, of Nash equilibria for (finite) strategic games. These problems ...

      The computational value of joint consistency 

      Dimopoulos, Yannis (1994)
      In this paper we investigate the complexity of some recent reconstructions of Reiter's Default Logic using graph-theoretical structures. It turns out that requiring joint consistency of the justification of the applied ...
