The method constructs a finite complete prefix, which can be seen as a symbolic representation of an interleaved reachability graph. We show that model checking a fixed size formula of several temporal logics, including LTL, CTL, and CTL*, is PSPACE-complete in the size of a finite complete prefix of a 1-safe Petri net. This proof employs a class of 1-safe Petri nets for which it is easy to generate a finite complete prefix in polynomial time.", month = "August", volume = "1877", juforank = "1", flags = "SA-LO-00-02", year = "2000", keywords = "net unfoldings, temporal logics, PSPACE-completeness", pages = "108--122" }
