Complete semialgebraic invariant synthesis for the Kannan-Lipton orbit problem

Abstract:

The Orbit Problem consists of determining, given a matrix A on Qd, together with vectors x and y, whether the orbit of x under repeated applications of A can ever reach y. This problem was famously shown to be decidable by Kannan and Lipton in the 1980s. In this paper, we are concerned with the problem of synthesising suitable invariants P⊆Rd , i.e., sets that are stable under A and contain x but not y, thereby providing compact and versatile certificates of non-reachability. We show that wh...
