Chatterjee Group
Computer-aided Verification, Game Theory

The Chatterjee group is interested in the theoretical foundations of game theory and formal verification. Game theory in the formal verification of software involves the algorithmic analysis of various forms of games played on graphs. This broad framework allows effective analysis of many important questions of computer science and helps in the development of software systems. The Chatterjee group works on theoretical aspects for the better understanding of games and develops new algorithms, presenting the theoretical foundations for the formal verification of systems.
