چکیده

We define the class of simple recursive games. A simple recursive game is defined as a simple stochastic game (a notion due to Anne Condon), except that we allow arbitrary real payoffs but disallow moves of chance. We study the complexity of solving simple recursive games and obtain an almost-linear time comparison-based algorithm for computing an equilibrium of such a game. The existence of a linear time comparison-based algorithm remains an open problem.

Subtyping Recursive Games

Using methods drawn from Game Semantics, we build a sound and computationally adequate model of a simple calculus that includes both subtyping and recursive types. Our model solves recursive type equations up to equality, and is shown to validate a subtyping rule for recursive types proposed by Amadio and Cardelli.

Efficient Qualitative Analysis of Classes of Recursive Markov Decision Processes and Simple Stochastic Games

Recursive Markov Decision Processes (RMDPs) and Recursive Simple Stochastic Games (RSSGs) are natural models for recursive systems involving both probabilistic and non-probabilistic actions. As shown recently [10], fundamental problems about such models, e.g., termination, are undecidable in general, but decidable for the important class of 1-exit RMDPs and RSSGs. These capture controlled and g...

Mimicking Humanlike Movement in Open World Games with Path-Relative Recursive Splines

In this paper we explore the use of recursive cubic Hermite splines to mimic human movement in open world games. Human-like movement in an open world environment has many characteristics that are not optimal or directed towards clear, discrete goals. Using data collected from a simple MMORPG-like game, we use our spline representation to model human player movements relative to corresponding op...

Recursive Stochastic Games with Positive Rewards

We study the complexity of a class of Markov decision processes and, more generally, stochastic games, called 1-exit Recursive Markov Decision Processes (1-RMDPs) and Simple Stochastic Games (1-RSSGs) with strictly positive rewards. These are a class of finitely presented countable-state zero-sum stochastic games, with total expected reward objective. They subsume standard finite-state MDPs and...

Games for Recursive Types

We present results concerning the solution of recursive domain equations in the category G of games, which is a modiied version of the category presented in AJM94]. New constructions corresponding to lifting and separated sum for games are presented, and are used to generate games for two simple recursive types: the vertical and lazy natural numbers. Recently, the \game semantics" paradigm has ...
