List of PSPACE-complete problems

Here are some of the more commonly known problems that are PSPACE-complete when expressed as decision problems. This list is in no way comprehensive.

Games and puzzles

Generalized versions of:

Logic

Lambda calculus

Type inhabitation problem for simply typed lambda calculus

Automata and language theory

Circuit theory

Integer circuit evaluation[23]

Automata theory

Formal languages

Graph theory

  • succinct versions of many graph problems, with graphs represented as Boolean circuits,[42] ordered binary decision diagrams[43] or other related representations:
    • s-t reachability problem for succinct graphs. This is essentially the same as the simplest plan existence problem in automated planning and scheduling.
    • planarity of succinct graphs
    • acyclicity of succinct graphs
    • connectedness of succinct graphs
    • existence of Eulerian paths in a succinct graph
  • Canadian traveller problem.[44]
  • Determining whether routes selected by the Border Gateway Protocol will eventually converge to a stable state for a given set of path preferences[45]
  • Dynamic graph reliability.[21]
  • Deterministic constraint logic (unbounded)[46]
  • Nondeterministic Constraint Logic (unbounded)[11]
  • Bounded two-player Constraint Logic[11]

Others

  • Finite horizon POMDPs (Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes).[47]
  • Hidden Model MDPs (hmMDPs).[48]
  • Dynamic Markov process.[21]
  • Detection of inclusion dependencies in a relational database[49]
  • Computation of any Nash equilibrium of a 2-player normal-form game, that may be obtained via the Lemke–Howson algorithm.[50]
  • The Corridor Tiling Problem: given a set of Wang tiles, a chosen tile and a width given in unary notation, is there any height such that an rectangle can be tiled such that all the border tiles are ?[51][52]
