  bibo_abstract:
  - 'We consider a class of optimization problems defined by a system of linear equations
    with min and max operators. This class of optimization problems has been studied
    under restrictive conditions, such as, (C1) the halting or stability condition;
    (C2) the non-negative coefficients condition; (C3) the sum upto 1 condition; and
    (C4) the only min or only max operator condition. Several seminal results in the
    literature focus on special cases. For example, turn-based stochastic games correspond
    to conditions C2 and C3; and Markov decision process to conditions C2, C3, and
    C4. However, the systematic computational complexity study of all the cases has
    not been explored, which we address in this work. Some highlights of our results
    are: with conditions C2 and C4, and with conditions C3 and C4, the problem is
    NP-complete, whereas with condition C1 only, the problem is in UP intersects coUP.
    Finally, we establish the computational complexity of the decision problem of
    checking the respective conditions.@eng'
