Symmetric strategy improvement

S Schewe, A Trivedi, T Varghese - … , ICALP 2015, Kyoto, Japan, July 6-10 …, 2015 - Springer
Symmetry is inherent in the definition of most of the two-player zero-sum games, including
parity, mean-payoff, and discounted-payoff games. It is therefore quite surprising that no …
