From Nondeterministic B\"uchi and Streett Automata to Deterministic Parity Automata

In this paper we revisit Safra's determinization constructions for automata on infinite words. We show how to construct deterministic automata with fewer states and, most importantly, parity acceptance conditions. Determinization is used in numerous applications, such as reasoning about tree au...
