Abstract

We study the reachability problems in various nondeterministic polynomial maps in Zn. We prove that the reachability problem for very simple three-dimensional affine maps (with independent variables) is undecidable and is PSAPCE -hard for two-dimensional quadratic maps. Then we show that the complexity of the reachability problem for maps without functions of the form x+b is lower. In this case the reachability problem is PSAPCE -complete in general, and NP -hard for any fixed dimension. Finally we extend the model by considering maps as language acceptors and prove that the universality problem is undecidable for two-dimensional affine maps.
