LTL Fragments are Hard for Standard Parameterisations

Abstract

We classify the complexity of the LTL satisfiability and model checking problems for several standard parameterisations. The investigated parameters are temporal depth, number of propositional variables and formula treewidth, resp., pathwidth. We show that all operator fragments of LTL under the investigated parameterisations are intractable in the sense of parameterised complexity.Comment: TIME 2015 conference versio
