Projects - Tom van Dijk's Marie Curie Individual Fellowship started in April 2020

15-Jun-2020

Tom van Dijk's Marie Curie project PIGGY started in April 2020.

Among others, the main objective of the project is to either:

  • reason how parity games separate P and NP by being solved in at least quasi-polynomial time 
  • find an algorithm that solves parity games in polynomial time

In order to achieve those goals, Tom studies how algorithms reason about parity games by looking specifically at so-called tangles and how their presence in parity games can make solving for any particular solver "hard".
