Abstract

A stochastic graph game is played by two players on a game graph with probabilistic transitions. We consider stochastic graph games with @w-regular winning conditions specified as parity objectives, and mean-payoff (or limit-average) objectives. These games lie in NP@?coNP. We present a polynomial-time Turing reduction of stochastic parity games to stochastic mean-payoff games.
