While the general problem of checking a temporal logic such as TPTL augmented with Presburger clock constraints is undecidable, we show that there are various classes of Presburger liveness properties which are decidable for discrete timed automata. For instance, it is decidable, given a discrete timed automaton A and a Presburger property P, whether there exists an omega-path of A where P holds infinitely often. We also show that other classes of Presburger liveness properties are indeed undecidable for discrete timed automata, e.g., whether P holds infinitely often for each omega-path of A. These results might give insights into the corresponding problems for timed automata over dense domains, and help in the definition of a fragment of linear temporal logic, augmented with Presburger conditions on configurations, which is decidable for model checking timed automata.
