AbstractCoalition announcement logic (CAL) is one of the family of the logics of quantified announcements. It allows us to reason about what a coalition of agents can achieve by making announcements in the setting where the anti-coalition may have an announcement of their own to preclude the former from reaching its epistemic goals. In this paper, we describe a PSPACE-complete model checking algorithm for CAL that produces winning strategies for coalitions. The algorithm is implemented in a proof-of-concept model checker.

The Parallel Repetition Theorem says that n-fold parallel execution of a two-prover one-round interactive proof system reduces the error probability exponentially in n. The bound on the error probability of the parallelized system depends on the error probability and the answer size of the single proof system. It is still unknown whether the theorem holds true with a bound depending only on the query size. This kind of a bound may be preferable whenever the query size is considerably smaller than the answer size, what really happens in some cryptographic protocols. Such a bound is only known in the case that queries to the provers are independent. The present paper extends this result to some cases of strong correlation between queries. In particular, a query-based variant of the Parallel Repetition Theorem is proven when the graph of dependence between queries to the provers is a tree and, in a bit weaker form, when this graph is a cycle.
