The Complexity of Generalized HyperLTL with Stuttering and Contexts

We settle the complexity of satisfiability and model-checking for generalized HyperLTL with stuttering and contexts, an expressive logic for the specification of asynchronous hyperproperties.Such properties cannot be specified in HyperLTL, as it is restricted to synchronous hyperproperties.Nevertheless, we prove that satisfiability is 1 1 -complete and thus not harder than for HyperLTL.On the other hand, we prove that model-checking is equivalent to truth in second-order arithmetic, and thus much harder than the decidable HyperLTL model-checking problem.The lower bounds for the model-checking problem hold even when only allowing stuttering or only allowing contexts.
