Alternating Nonzero Automata

Abstract

We introduce a new class of automata on infinite trees called alternating nonzero automata, which extends the class of non-deterministic nonzero automata. The emptiness problem for this class is still open, however we identify a subclass, namely limited choice, for which we reduce the emptiness problem for alternating nonzero automata to the same problem for non-deterministic ones, which implies decidability. We obtain, as corollaries, algorithms for the satisfiability of a probabilistic temporal logic extending both CTL* and the qualitative fragment of pCTL*.
