Etienne Renault, Alexandre Duret-Lutz, Fabrice Kordon, and Denis Poitrenaud:
Strength-based decomposition of the property Büchi automaton for faster
model checking. Proceedings of TACAS'13. LNCS 7795.

The \fB\-\-strength\-decompose\fR option implements the definitions
given in the above paper.

\(bu
František Blahoudek, Alexandre Duret-Lutz, Vojtčech Rujbr, and Jan Strejček:
On refinement of Büchi automata for explicit model checking.
Proceedings of SPIN'15.  LNCS 9232.

That paper gives the motivation for options \fB\-\-exclusive\-ap\fR
and \fB\-\-simplify\-exclusive\-ap\fR.
.TP
\(bu
Thibaud Michaud and Alexandre Duret-Lutz:
Practical stutter-invariance checks for ω-regular languages.
Proceedings of SPIN'15.  LNCS 9232.

Describes the algorithms used by the \fB\-\-destut\fR and
\fB\-\-instut\fR options.  These options correpond respectively to
cl() and sl() in the paper.

\(bu
Souheib Baarir and Alexandre Duret-Lutz: SAT-based minimization of
deterministic ω-automata.  Proceedings of LPAR'15 (a.k.a LPAR-20).
LNCS 9450.

Describes the \fB\-\-sat\-minimize\fR option.
