Research
Papers and Presentations
My research interests are currently related to Automata, Complexity, and Logic and widely speaking my interests stem from the foundations of computer science. In particular, I have focussed on determining the complexity of decision problems for infinite-state systems, including: coverability and reachability in extended or restricted variants of both vector addition systems and Petri nets as well as membership, equivalence, and inclusion of counter nets.
