Abstract
With the goal of lifting model-based guidance from the propositional setting to first- order logic, I have developed an approximation theorem proving approach based on counterexample-guided abstraction refinement. A given clause set is transformed into a simplified form where satisfiability is decidable. This approximation extends the signature and preserves unsatisfiability: if the simplified clause set is satisfi- able, so is the original clause set. A resolution refutation generated by a decision procedure on the simplified clause set can then either be lifted to a refutation in the original clause set, or it guides a refinement excluding the previously found unliftable refutation. This way the approach is refutationally complete. The monadic shallow linear Horn fragment, which is the initial target of the approximation, is well-known to be decidable. It was a long standing open prob- lem how to extend the fragment to the non-Horn case, preserving decidability, that would, e.g., enable to express non-determinism in protocols. I have now proven de- cidability of the non-Horn monadic shallow linear fragment via ordered resolution. I further extend the clause language with a new type of constraints, called straight dismatching constraints. The extended clause language is motivated by an improved refinement of the approximation-refinement framework. All needed oper- ations on straight dismatching constraints take linear or linear logarithmic time in the size of the constraint. Ordered resolution with straight dismatching constraints is sound and complete and the monadic shallow linear fragment with straight dis- matching constraints is decidable. I have implemented my approach based on the SPASS theorem prover. On cer- tain satisfiable problems, the implementation shows the ability to beat established provers such as SPASS, iProver, and Vampire.

(arXiv: 1712.01486)
Abstract
Satisfiability modulo theories (SMT) solvers have throughout the years been able to cope with increasingly expressive formulas, from ground logics to full first-order logic modulo theories. Nevertheless, higher-order logic within SMT is still little explored. One main goal of the Matryoshka project, which started in March 2017, is to extend the reasoning capabilities of SMT solvers and other automatic provers beyond first-order logic. In this preliminary report, we report on an extension of the SMT-LIB language, the standard input format of SMT solvers, to handle higher-order constructs. We also discuss how to augment the proof format of the SMT solver veriT to accommodate these new constructs and the solving techniques they require.

Abstract
We consider the problem of determining multiple steady states for positive real values in models of biological networks. Investigating the potential for these in models of the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) network has consumed considerable effort using special insights into the structure of corresponding models. Here we apply combinations of symbolic computation methods for mixed equality/inequality systems, specifically virtual substitution, lazy real triangularization and cylindrical algebraic decomposition. We determine multistationarity of an 11-dimensional MAPK network when numeric values are known for all but potentially one parameter. More precisely, our considered model has 11 equations in 11 variables and 19 parameters, 3 of which are of interest for symbolic treatment, and furthermore positivity conditions on all variables and parameters.

Abstract
We investigate models of the mitogenactivated protein kinases (MAPK) network, with the aim of determining where in parameter space there exist multiple positive steady states. We build on recent progress which combines various symbolic computation methods for mixed systems of equalities and inequalities. We demonstrate that those techniques benefit tremendously from a newly implemented graph theoretical symbolic preprocessing method. We compare computation times and quality of results of numerical continuation methods with our symbolic approach before and after the application of our preprocessing.

(arXiv: 1706.09236)
Abstract
Quantifier-free nonlinear arithmetic (QF_NRA) appears in many applications of satisfiability modulo theories solving (SMT). Accordingly, efficient reasoning for corresponding constraints in SMT theory solvers is highly relevant. We propose a new incomplete but efficient and terminating method to identify satisfiable instances. The method is derived from the subtropical method recently introduced in the context of symbolic computation for computing real zeros of single very large multivariate polynomials. Our method takes as input conjunctions of strict polynomial inequalities, which represent more than 40% of the QF_NRA section of the SMT-LIB library of benchmarks. The method takes an abstraction of polynomials as exponent vectors over the natural numbers tagged with the signs of the corresponding coefficients. It then uses, in turn, SMT to solve linear problems over the reals to heuristically find suitable points that translate back to satisfying points for the original problem. Systematic experiments on the SMT-LIB demonstrate that our method is not a sufficiently strong decision procedure by itself but a valuable heuristic to use within a portfolio of techniques.

Systematic experiments on the SMT-LIB demonstrate that our method is not a sufficiently strong decision procedure by itself but a valuable heuristic to use within a portfolio of techniques. %K Computer Science, Logic in Computer Science, cs.LO

Abstract
In general, first-order predicate logic extended with linear integer arithmetic is undecidable. We show that the Bernays-Sch\"onfinkel-Ramsey fragment ($\exists^* \forall^*$-sentences) extended with a restricted form of linear integer arithmetic is decidable via finite ground instantiation. The identified ground instances can be employed to restrict the search space of existing automated reasoning procedures considerably, e.g., when reasoning about quantified properties of array data structures formalized in Bradley, Manna, and Sipma's array property fragment. Typically, decision procedures for the array property fragment are based on an exhaustive instantiation of universally quantified array indices with all the ground index terms that occur in the formula at hand. Our results reveal that one can get along with significantly fewer instances.

(arXiv: 1703.01212)
Abstract
The first-order theory of addition over the natural numbers, known as Presburger arithmetic, is decidable in double exponential time. Adding an uninterpreted unary predicate to the language leads to an undecidable theory. We sharpen the known boundary between decidable and undecidable in that we show that the purely universal fragment of the extended theory is already undecidable. Our proof is based on a reduction of the halting problem for two-counter machines to unsatisfiability of sentences in the extended language of Presburger arithmetic that does not use existential quantification. On the other hand, we argue that a single $\forall\exists$ quantifier alternation turns the set of satisfiable sentences of the extended language into a $\Sigma^1_1$-complete set. Some of the mentioned results can be transfered to the realm of linear arithmetic over the ordered real numbers. This concerns the undecidability of the purely universal fragment and the $\Sigma^1_1$-hardness for sentences with at least one quantifier alternation. Finally, we discuss the relevance of our results to verification. In particular, we derive undecidability results for quantified fragments of separation logic, the theory of arrays, and combinations of the theory of equality over uninterpreted functions with restricted forms of integer arithmetic. In certain cases our results even imply the absence of sound and complete deductive calculi.

Abstract
Rule-based configuration systems are being successfully used in industry, such as DOPLER at Siemens. Those systems make complex domain knowledge available to users and let them derive valid, customized products out of large sets of components. However, maintenance of such systems remains a challenge. Formal models are a prerequisite for the use of automated methods of analysis. This thesis deals with the formalization of rule-based configuration. We develop two logics whose transition semantics are suited for expressing the way systems like DOPLER operate. This is due to the existence of two types of transitions, namely user and rule transitions, and a fixpoint mechanism that determines their dynamic relationship. The first logic, PIDL, models propositional systems, while the second logic, PIDL+, additionally considers arithmetic constraints. They allow the formulation and automated verification of relevant properties of rule- based configuration systems.

Abstract
The monadic shallow linear Horn fragment is well-known to be decidable and has many application, e.g., in security protocol analysis, tree automata, or abstraction refinement. It was a long standing open problem how to extend the fragment to the non-Horn case, preserving decidability, that would, e.g., enable to express non-determinism in protocols. We prove decidability of the non-Horn monadic shallow linear fragment via ordered resolution further extended with dismatching constraints and discuss some applications of the new decidable fragment.

Abstract
Recently, the separated fragment (SF) has been introduced and proved to be decidable. Its defining principle is that universally and existentially quantified variables may not occur together in atoms. The known upper bound on the time required to decide SF's satisfiability problem is formulated in terms of quantifier alternations: Given an SF sentence $\exists \vec{z} \forall \vec{x}_1 \exists \vec{y}_1 \ldots \forall \vec{x}_n \exists \vec{y}_n . \psi$ in which $\psi$ is quantifier free, satisfiability can be decided in nondeterministic $n$-fold exponential time.

Our main result is the $k$-NEXPTIME-completeness of the satisfiability problem for the set $SF_{\leq k}$ of all SF sentences that have degree $k$ or smaller. Consequently, we show that SF-satisfiability is non-elementary in general, since SF is defined without restrictions on the degree.

Abstract
Proof assistants are becoming widespread for formalization of theories both in computer science and mathematics. They provide rich logics with powerful type systems and machine-checked proofs which increase the confidence in the correctness in complicated and detailed proofs. However, they incur a significant overhead compared to pen-and-paper proofs. This thesis describes work on bridging the gap between high-order proof assistants and first-order automated theorem provers by extending the capabilities of the automated theorem provers to provide features usually found in proof assistants. My first contribution is the development and implementation of a first-order superposition calculus with a polymorphic type system that supports type classes and the accompanying refutational completeness proof for that calculus. The inclusion of the type system into the superposition calculus and solvers completely removes the type encoding overhead when encoding problems from many proof assistants. My second contribution is the development of SupInd, an extension of the typed superposition calculus that supports data types and structural induction over those data types. It includes heuristics that guide the induction and conjecture strengthening techniques, which can be applied independently of the underlying calculus. I have implemented the contributions in a tool called Pirate. The evaluations of both contributions show promising results.

Abstract
Symbolic Computation and Satisfiability Checking are two research areas, both having their individual scientific focus but sharing also common interests in the development, implementation and application of decision procedures for arithmetic theories. Despite their commonalities, the two communities are rather weakly connected. The aim of our newly accepted SC-square project (H2020-FETOPEN-CSA) is to strengthen the connection between these communities by creating common platforms, initiating interaction and exchange, identifying common challenges, and developing a common roadmap from theory along the way to tools and (industrial) applications. In this paper we report on the aims and on the first activities of this project, and formalise some relevant challenges for the unified SC-square community.

Abstract
This paper provides a suite of optimization techniques for the verification of safety properties of linear hybrid automata with large discrete state spaces, such as naturally arising when incorporating health state monitoring and degradation levels into the controller design. Such models can -- in contrast to purely functional controller models -- not analyzed with hybrid verification engines relying on explicit representations of modes, but require fully symbolic representations for both the continuous and discrete part of the state space. The optimization techniques shown yield consistently a speedup of about 20 against previously published results for a similar benchmark suite, and complement these with new results on counterexample guided abstraction refinement. In combination with the methods guaranteeing preciseness of abstractions, this allows to significantly extend the class of models for which safety can be established, covering in particular models with 23 continuous variables and 2 to the 71 discrete states, 20 continuous variables and 2 to the 199 discrete states, and 9 continuous variables and 2 to the 271 discrete states.

Abstract
A distributed hash table (DHT) is a peer-to-peer network that offers the function of a classic hash table, but where different key-value pairs are stored at different nodes on the network. Like a classic hash table, the main function provided by a DHT is key lookup, which retrieves the value stored at a given key. Examples of DHT protocols include Chord, Pastry, Kademlia and Tapestry. Such DHT protocols certain correctness and performance guarantees, but formal verification typically discovers border cases that violate those guarantees. In his PhD thesis, Tianxiang Lu reported correctness problems in published versions of Pastry and developed a model called LuPastry, for which he provided a partial proof of correct delivery of lookup messages assuming no node failure, mechanized in the TLA+ Proof System. In analyzing Lu's proof, I discovered that it contained unproven assumptions, and found counterexamples to several of these assumptions. The contribution of this thesis is threefold. First, I present LuPastry+, a revised TLA+ specification of LuPastry. Aside from needed bug fixes, LuPastry+ contains new definitions that make the specification more modular and significantly improve proof automation. Second, I present a complete TLA+ proof of correct delivery for LuPastry+. Third, I prove that the final step of the node join process of LuPastry/LuPastry+ is not necessary to achieve consistency. In particular, I develop a new specification with a simpler node join process, which I denote by Simplified LuPastry+, and prove correct delivery of lookup messages for this new specification. The proof of correctness of Simplified LuPastry+ is written by reusing the proof for LuPastry+, which represents a success story in proof reuse, especially for proofs of this size. Each of the two proofs amounts to over 32,000 proof steps; to my knowledge, they are currently the largest proofs written in the TLA+ language, and---together with Lu's proof---the only examples of applying full theorem proving for the verification of DHT protocols

Like a classic hash table, the main function provided by a DHT is key lookup, which retrieves the value stored at a given key. Examples of DHT protocols include Chord, Pastry, Kademlia and Tapestry. Such DHT protocols certain correctness and performance guarantees, but formal verification typically discovers border cases that violate those guarantees. In his PhD thesis, Tianxiang Lu reported correctness problems in published versions of Pastry and developed a model called LuPastry, for which he provided a partial proof of correct delivery of lookup messages assuming no node failure, mechanized in the TLA+ Proof System. In analyzing Lu's proof, I discovered that it contained unproven assumptions, and found counterexamples to several of these assumptions. The contribution of this thesis is threefold. First, I present LuPastry+, a revised TLA+ specification of LuPastry. Aside from needed bug fixes, LuPastry+ contains new definitions that make the specification more modular and significantly improve proof automation. Second, I present a complete TLA+ proof of correct delivery for LuPastry+. Third, I prove that the final step of the node join process of LuPastry/LuPastry+ is not necessary to achieve consistency. In particular, I develop a new specification with a simpler node join process, which I denote by Simplified LuPastry+, and prove correct delivery of lookup messages for this new specification.

(arXiv: 1609.08916)
Abstract
Many automatic theorem provers are restricted to untyped logics, and existing translations from typed logics are bulky or unsound. Recent research proposes monotonicity as a means to remove some clutter when translating monomorphic to untyped first-order logic. Here we pursue this approach systematically, analysing formally a variety of encodings that further improve on efficiency while retaining soundness and completeness. We extend the approach to rank-1 polymorphism and present alternative schemes that lighten the translation of polymorphic symbols based on the novel notion of "cover". The new encodings are implemented in Isabelle/HOL as part of the Sledgehammer tool. We include informal proofs of soundness and correctness, and have formalised the monomorphic part of this work in Isabelle/HOL. Our evaluation finds the new encodings vastly superior to previous schemes.

Abstract
Nunchaku is a new higher-order counterexample generator based on a sequence of transformations from polymorphic higher-order logic to first-order logic. Unlike its predecessor Nitpick for Isabelle, it is designed as a stand-alone tool, with frontends for various proof assistants. In this short paper, we present some ideas to extend Nunchaku with partial support for dependent types and type classes, to make frontends for Coq and other systems based on dependent type theory more useful.

Abstract
We consider existential problems over the reals. Extended quantifier elimination generalizes the concept of regular quantifier elimination by providing in addition answers, which are descriptions of possible assignments for the quantified variables. Implementations of extended quantifier elimination via virtual substitution have been successfully applied to various problems in science and engineering. So far, the answers produced by these implementations included infinitesimal and infinite numbers, which are hard to interpret in practice. We introduce here a post-processing procedure to convert, for fixed parameters, all answers into standard real numbers. The relevance of our procedure is demonstrated by application of our implementation to various examples from the literature, where it significantly improves the quality of the results.

(arXiv: 1511.08999)
Abstract
We introduce a new decidable fragment of first-order logic with equality, which strictly generalizes two already well-known ones -- the Bernays-Sch\"onfinkel-Ramsey (BSR) Fragment and the Monadic Fragment. The defining principle is the syntactic separation of universally quantified variables from existentially quantified ones at the level of atoms. Thus, our classification neither rests on restrictions on quantifier prefixes (as in the BSR case) nor on restrictions on the arity of predicate symbols (as in the monadic case). We demonstrate that the new fragment exhibits the finite model property and derive a non-elementary upper bound on the computing time required for deciding satisfiability in the new fragment. For the subfragment of prenex sentences with the quantifier prefix $\exists^* \forall^* \exists^*$ the satisfiability problem is shown to be complete for NEXPTIME. Finally, we discuss how automated reasoning procedures can take advantage of our results.

Abstract
We combine key ideas from first-order superposition and propositional CDCL to create the new calculus NRCL deciding the Bernays-Sch\"onfinkel fragment. It inherits the abstract redundancy criterion and the monotone model operator from superposition. CDCL adds to NRCL the dynamic, conflict-driven search for an atom ordering inducing a model. As a result, in NRCL a false clause can be effectively found modulo the current model assumption. It guides the derivation of a first-order ordered resolvent that is never redundant. Similar to 1UIP-learning in CDCL, the learned resolvent induces backtracking and via propagation blocks the previous conflict state for the rest of the search. Since learned clauses are never redundant, only finitely many can be generated by NRCL on the Bernays-Sch\"onfinkel fragment, which provides a nice argument for termination.

In this paper, we present an algorithm for computing a fundamental matrix of formal solutions of completely integrable Pfaffian systems with normal crossings in several variables. This algorithm is a generalization of a method developed for the bivariate case based on a combination of several reduction techniques and is implemented in the computer algebra system Maple.

Abstract
This paper presents a formalized framework for defining corecursive functions safely in a total setting, based on corecursion up-to and relational parametricity. The end product is a general corecursor that allows corecursive (and even recursive) calls under well-behaved operations, including constructors. Corecursive functions that are well behaved can be registered as such, thereby increasing the corecursor's expressiveness. The metatheory is formalized in the Isabelle proof assistant and forms the core of a prototype tool. The corecursor is derived from first principles, without requiring new axioms or extensions of the logic.

Abstract
We consider feasibility of linear integer programs in the context of verification systems such as SMT solvers or theorem provers. Although satisfiability of linear integer programs is decidable, many state-of-the-art solvers neglect termination in favor of efficiency. It is challenging to design a solver that is both terminating and practically efficient. Recent work by Jovanovic and de Moura constitutes an important step into this direction. Their algorithm CUTSAT is sound, but does not terminate, in general. In this paper we extend their CUTSAT algorithm by refined inference rules, a new type of conflicting core, and a dedicated rule application strategy. This leads to our algorithm CUTSAT++, which guarantees termination.

Some recent methods for lossy signal and image compression store only a few selected pixels and fill in the missing structures by inpainting with a partial differential equation (PDE). Suitable operators include the Laplacian, the biharmonic operator, and edge-enhancing anisotropic diffusion (EED). The quality of such approaches depends substantially on the selection of the data that is kept. Optimising this data in the domain and codomain gives rise to challenging mathematical problems that shall be addressed in our work. In the 1D case, we prove results that provide insights into the difficulty of this problem, and we give evidence that a splitting into spatial and tonal (i.e. function value) optimisation does hardly deteriorate the results. In the 2D setting, we present generic algorithms that achieve a high reconstruction quality even if the specified data is very sparse. To optimise the spatial data, we use a probabilistic sparsification, followed by a nonlocal pixel exchange that avoids getting trapped in bad local optima. After this spatial optimisation we perform a tonal optimisation that modifies the function values in order to reduce the global reconstruction error. For homogeneous diffusion inpainting, this comes down to a least squares problem for which we prove that it has a unique solution. We demonstrate that it can be found efficiently with a gradient descent approach that is accelerated with fast explicit diffusion (FED) cycles. Our framework allows to specify the desired density of the inpainting mask a priori. Moreover, is more generic than other data optimisation approaches for the sparse inpainting problem, since it can also be extended to nonlinear inpainting operators such as EED. This is exploited to achieve reconstructions with state-of-the-art quality. We also give an extensive literature survey on PDE-based image compression methods.

Abstract
We generalize the framework of virtual substitution for real quantifier elimination to arbitrary but bounded degrees. We make explicit the representation of test points in elimination sets using roots of parametric univariate polynomials described by Thom codes. Our approach follows an early suggestion by Weispfenning, which has never been carried out explicitly. Inspired by virtual substitution for linear formulas, we show how to systematically construct elimination sets containing only test points representing lower bounds.

Abstract
We consider existential problems over the reals. Extended quantifier elimination generalizes the concept of regular quantifier elimination by providing in addition answers, which are descriptions of possible assignments for the quantified variables. Implementations of extended quantifier elimination via virtual substitution have been successfully applied to various problems in science and engineering. So far, the answers produced by these implementations included infinitesimal and infinite numbers, which are hard to interpret in practice. We introduce here a post-processing procedure to convert, for fixed parameters, all answers into standard real numbers. The relevance of our procedure is demonstrated by application of our implementation to various examples from the literature, where it significantly improves the quality of the results.

Abstract
We describe a new incomplete but terminating method for real root finding for large multivariate polynomials.

Abstract
Counterexample-guided abstraction refinement is a well-established technique in verification. In this paper we instantiate the idea for first-order logic theorem proving. Given a clause set $N$ we propose its abstraction into a clause set $N'$ belonging to a decidable first-order fragment. The abstraction preserves satisfiability: if $N'$ is satisfiable, so is $N$. A refutation in $N'$ can then either be lifted to a refutation in $N$, or it guides a refinement of $N$ and its abstraction $N'$ excluding the previously found refutation that is not liftable.

(arXiv: 1501.07209)
Abstract
Linear arithmetic extended with free predicate symbols is undecidable, in general. We show that the restriction of linear arithmetic inequations to simple bounds extended with the Bernays-Sch\"onfinkel-Ramsey free first-order fragment is decidable and NEXPTIME-complete. The result is almost tight because the Bernays-Sch\"onfinkel-Ramsey fragment is undecidable in combination with linear difference inequations, simple additive inequations, quotient inequations and multiplicative inequations.

Abstract
This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 13411 "Deduction and Arithmetic". The aim of this seminar was to bring together researchers working in deduction and fields related to arithmetic constraint solving. Current research in deduction can be categorized in three main strands: SMT solvers, automated first-order provers, and interactive provers. Although dealing with arithmetic has been in focus of all three for some years, there is still need of much better support of arithmetic. Reasong about arithmetic will stay at the center of attention in all three main approaches to automated deduction during the coming five to ten years. The seminar was an important event for the subcommunities involved that made it possible to communicate with each other so as to avoid duplicate effort and to exploit synergies. It succeeded also in identifying a number of important trends and open problems.

Abstract
In this paper we study theory combinations over non-disjoint signatures in which hierarchical and modular reasoning is possible. We use a notion of locality of a theory extension parameterized by a closure operator on ground terms. We give criteria for recognizing these types of theory extensions. We then show that combinations of extensions of theories which are local in this extended sense have also a locality property and hence allow modular and hierarchical reasoning. We thus obtain parameterized decidability and complexity results for many (combinations of) theories important in verification.

We thus obtain parameterized decidability and complexity results for many (combinations of) theories important in verification. %B AVACS Technical Report %N 93 %@ false %U http://www.avacs.org/Publikationen/Open/avacs_technical_report_093.pdf

Abstract
We consider satisfiability modulo theory-solving for linear real arithmetic. Inspired by related work for the Fourier–Motzkin method, we combine virtual substitution with learning strategies. For the first time, we present virtual substitution—including our learning strategies—as a formal calculus. We prove soundness and completeness for that calculus. Some standard linear programming benchmarks computed with an experimental implementation of our calculus show that the integration of learning techniques into virtual substitution gives rise to considerable speedups. Our implementation is open-source and freely available.

Abstract
Many applications of automated deduction require reasoning in first-order logic modulo background theories, in particular some form of integer arithmetic. A major unsolved research challenge is to design theorem provers that are "reasonably complete" even in the presence of free function symbols ranging into a background theory sort. The hierarchic superposition calculus of Bachmair, Ganzinger, and Waldmann already supports such symbols, but, as we demonstrate, not optimally. This paper aims to rectify the situation by introducing a novel form of clause abstraction, a core component in the hierarchic superposition calculus for transforming clauses into a form needed for internal operation. We argue for the benefits of the resulting calculus and provide a new completeness result for the fragment where all background-sorted terms are ground.

Abstract
In this paper we study possibilities of using methods for hierarchical reasoning in local theory extensions for the analysis and verification of parametric hybrid systems, where the parameters can be either constants or functions. Our goal is to automatically provide guarantees that such systems satisfy certain safety or invariance conditions. We first analyze the possibility of automatically generating such guarantees in the form of constraints on parameters, then show that we can also synthesise so-called criticality functions, typically used for proving stability and/or safety of hybrid systems. We illustrate our methods on several examples.

Abstract
Rule-based specifications of systems have again become common in the context of product line variability modeling and configuration systems. In this paper, we define a logical foundation for rule-based specifications that has enough expressivity and operational behavior to be practically useful and at the same time enables decidability of important overall properties such as consistency or cycle-freeness. Our logic supports rule-based interactive user transitions as well as the definition of a domain theory via rule transitions. As a running example, we model DOPLER, a rule-based configuration system currently in use at Siemens.

Abstract
The success of superposition-based theorem proving in first-order logic relies in particular on the fact that the superposition calculus can be turned into a decision procedure for various decidable fragments of first-order logic and has been successfully used to identify new decidable classes. In this paper, we extend this story to the hierarchic combination of linear arithmetic and first-order superposition. We show that decidability of reachability in timed automata can be obtained by instantiation of an abstract termination result for SUP(LA), the hierarchic combination of linear arithmetic and first-order superposition.

Abstract
In this paper we present a method for obtaining local sets of clauses from possibly non-local ones. For this, we follow the work of Basin and Ganzinger and use saturation under a version of ordered resolution. In order to address the fact that saturation can generate infinite sets of clauses, we use constrained clauses and show that a link can be established between saturation and locality also for constrained clauses: This often allows us to give a finite representation of possibly infinite saturated sets of clauses.

Abstract
Data-parallel languages like OpenCL and CUDA are an important means to exploit the computational power of today's computing devices. We consider the compilation of such languages for CPUs with SIMD instruction sets. To generate efficient code, one wants to statically decide whether or not certain memory operations access consecutive addresses. We formalize the notion of consecutivity and algorithmically reduce the static decision to satisfiability problems in Presburger Arithmetic. We introduce a preprocessing technique on these SMT problems, which makes it feasible to apply an off-the-shelf SMT solver. We show that a prototypical OpenCL CPU driver based on our approach generates more efficient code than any other state-of-the-art driver.

Abstract
BDI (Bounded Depth Increase) is a new decidable first-order clause class. It strictly includes known classes such as PVD. The arity of function and predicate symbols as well as the shape of atoms is not restricted in BDI. Instead the shape of "cycles" in resolution inferences is restricted such that the depth of generated clauses may increase but is still finitely bound. The BDI class is motivated by real world problems where function terms are used to represent record structures. We show that the hyper-resolution calculus modulo redundancy elimination terminates on BDI clause sets. Employing this result to the ordered resolution calculus, we can also prove termination of ordered resolution on BDI, yielding a more efficient decision procedure.

Abstract
In this paper we study possibilities of using methods for hierarchical reasoning in local theory extensions for the analysis and verification of parametric hybrid systems, where the parameters can be either constants or functions. Our goal is to automatically provide guarantees that such systems satisfy certain safety or invariance conditions. We first analyze the possibility of automatically generating such guarantees in the form of constraints on parameters, then show that we can also synthesise so-called criticality functions, typically used for proving stability and/or safety of hybrid systems. We illustrate our methods on several examples.

Abstract
Many problems in mathematics and computer science can be reduced to proving the satisfiability of conjunctions of literals in a background theory which is often the extension of a base theory with additional functions or a combination of theories. It is therefore important to have efficient procedures for checking satisfiability of conjunctions of ground literals in extensions and combinations of theories. For a special type of theory extensions, namely \em local extensions, hierarchic reasoning, in which a theorem prover for the base theory can be used as a black box'', is possible. Many theories used in computer science or mathematics are local extensions of a base theory. However, often it is necessary to consider complex extensions of a theory, with various types of functions. In this paper we identify situations in which a combination of local extensions of a base theory is guaranteed to be again a local extension of the base theory. We thus obtain criteria both for recognizing wider classes of local theory extensions, and for modular reasoning in combinations of theories over non-disjoint signatures.

Abstract
In this paper we show that subsumption problems in the description logics EL and EL+ can be expressed as uniform word problems in classes of semilattices with monotone operators. We use possibilities of efficient local reasoning in such classes of algebras, to obtain uniform PTIME decision procedures for TBox and CBox subsumption in EL and EL+. These locality considerations allow us to present a new family of (possibly many-sorted) logics which extend EL and EL+ with n-ary roles and/or numerical domains.

Abstract
We propose an improvement of the famous IC3 algorithm for model checking safety properties of finite state systems. We collect models computed by the SAT-solver during the clause propagation phase of the algorithm and use them as witnesses for why the respective clauses could not be pushed forward. It only makes sense to recheck a particular clause for pushing when its witnessing model falsifies a newly added clause. Since this trigger test is both computationally cheap and sufficiently precise, we can afford to keep clauses pushed as far as possible at all times. Experiments indicate that this strategy considerably improves IC3's performance.

Abstract
The hierarchic combination of linear arithmetic and firstorder logic with free function symbols, FOL(LA), results in a strictly more expressive logic than its two parts. The SUP(LA) calculus can be turned into a decision procedure for interesting fragments of FOL(LA). For example, reachability problems for timed automata can be decided by SUP(LA) using an appropriate translation into FOL(LA). In this paper, we extend the SUP(LA) calculus with an additional inference rule, automatically generating inductive invariants from partial SUP(LA) derivations. The rule enables decidability of more expressive fragments, including reachability for timed automata with unbounded integer variables. We have implemented the rule in the SPASS(LA) theorem prover with promising results, showing that it can considerably speed up proof search and enable termination of saturation for practically relevant problems.

Abstract
The hierarchic superposition calculus over a theory T, called SUP(T), enables sound reasoning on the hierarchic combination of a theory T with full first-order logic, FOL(T). If a FOL(T) clause set enjoys a sufficient completeness criterion, the calculus is even complete. Clause sets over the ground fragment of FOL(T) are not sufficiently complete, in general. In this paper we show that any clause set over the ground FOL(T) fragment can be transformed into a sufficiently complete one, and prove that SUP(T) terminates on the transformed clause set, hence constitutes a decision procedure provided the existential fragment of the theory T is decidable. Thanks to the hierarchic design of SUP(T), the decidability result can be extended beyond the ground case. We show SUP(T) is a decision procedure for the non-ground FOL fragment plus a theory T, if every non-constant function symbol from the underlying FOL signature ranges into the sort of the theory T, and every term of the theory sort is ground. Examples for T are in particular decidable fragments of arithmetic.

Suda, M., & Weidenbach, C. (2012a). Labelled Superposition for PLTL (No. MPI-I-2012-RG1-001). Saarbrücken: Max-Planck-Institut für Informatik.
Abstract
This paper introduces a new decision procedure for PLTL based on labelled superposition. Its main idea is to treat temporal formulas as infinite sets of purely propositional clauses over an extended signature. These infinite sets are then represented by finite sets of labelled propositional clauses. The new representation enables the replacement of the complex temporal resolution rule, suggested by existing resolution calculi for PLTL, by a fine grained repetition check of finitely saturated labelled clause sets followed by a simple inference. The completeness argument is based on the standard model building idea from superposition. It inherently justifies ordering restrictions, redundancy elimination and effective partial model building. The latter can be directly used to effectively generate counterexamples of non-valid PLTL conjectures out of saturated labelled clause sets in a straightforward way.

Abstract
Labelled superposition (LPSup) is a new calculus for PLTL. One of its distinguishing features, in comparison to other resolution-based approaches, is its ability to construct partial models on the fly. We use this feature to design a new decision procedure for the logic, where the models are effectively used to guide the search. On a representative set of benchmarks, our implementation is then shown to considerably advance the state of the art.

Abstract
We present a new calculus for first-order theorem proving with equality, ME+Sup, which generalizes both the Superposition calculus and the Model Evolution calculus (with equality) by integrating their inference rules and redundancy criteria in a non-trivial way. The main motivation is to combine the advantageous features of these two rather complementary calculi in a single framework. In particular, Model Evolution, as a lifted version of the propositional DPLL procedure, contributes a non-ground splitting rule that effectively permits to split a clause into \emph{non} variable disjoint subclauses. In the paper we present the calculus in detail. Our main result is its completeness under semantically justified redundancy criteria and simplification rules. We also show how under certain assumptions the model representation computed by a (finite and fair) derivation can be queried in an effective way.

Burel, G. (2011). Efficiently Simulating Higher-Order Arithmetic by a First-Order Theory Modulo. Logical Methods in Computer Science, 7(1). doi:10.2168/LMCS-7 (1:3) 2011
Abstract
In deduction modulo, a theory is not represented by a set of axioms but by a congruence on propositions modulo which the inference rules of standard deductive systems---such as for instance natural deduction---are applied. Therefore, the reasoning that is intrinsic of the theory does not appear in the length of proofs. In general, the congruence is defined through a rewrite system over terms and propositions. We define a rigorous framework to study proof lengths in deduction modulo, where the congruence must be computed in polynomial time. We show that even very simple rewrite systems lead to arbitrary proof-length speed-ups in deduction modulo, compared to using axioms. As higher-order logic can be encoded as a first-order theory in deduction modulo, we also study how to reinterpret, thanks to deduction modulo, the speed-ups between higher-order and first-order arithmetics that were stated by G\"odel. We define a first-order rewrite system with a congruence decidable in polynomial time such that proofs of higher-order arithmetic can be linearly translated into first-order arithmetic modulo that system. We also present the whole higher-order arithmetic as a first-order system without resorting to any axiom, where proofs have the same length as in the axiomatic presentation.

Abstract
This paper identifies an industrially relevant class of linear hybrid automata (LHA) called reasonable LHA for which parametric verification of convex safety properties with exhaustive entry states can be verified in polynomial time and time-bounded reachability can be decided in nondeterministic polynomial time for non-parametric verification and in exponential time for parametric verification. Properties with exhaustive entry states are restricted to runs originating in a (specified) inner envelope of some mode-invariant. Deciding whether an LHA is reasonable is shown to be decidable in polynomial time.

Abstract
We study linear hybrid automata with dynamics of the form $\sum a_i x_i \leq a$ and $\sum b_i {\dot x_i} \leq b$. We show that verification of safety properties for reasonable classes of such systems can be reduced to invariant checking and bounded model checking and, ultimately, to checking the validity of certain formulae (obtained using a polynomial reduction). We show that the problem of checking the validity of the formulae obtained this way is typically in NP, and identify verification tasks which can be performed in PTIME. These reductions can also be used for parametric systems, both for checking safety properties given constraints on parameters, and for deriving constraints of parameters that guarantee that safety properties hold.

Abstract
This paper identifies an industrially relevant class of linear hybrid automata (LHA) called reasonable LHA for which parametric verification of convex safety properties with exhaustive entry states can be verified in polynomial time and time-bounded reachability can be decided in nondeterministic polynomial time for non-parametric verification and in exponential time for parametric verification. Properties with exhaustive entry states are restricted to runs originating in a (specified) inner envelope of some mode-invariant. Deciding whether an LHA is reasonable is shown to be decidable in polynomial time.

Abstract
The first-order theory over non-linear arithmetic including transcendental functions (NLA) is undecidable. Nevertheless, in this paper we show that a particular combination with superposition leads to a sound and complete calculus that is useful in practice. We follow basically the ideas of the SUP(LA) combination, but have to take care of undecidability, resulting in unknown'' answers by the NLA reasoning procedure. A pipeline of NLA constraint simplification techniques related to the SUP(NLA) framework significantly decreases the number of unknown'' answers. The resulting approach is implemented as SUP(NLA) by a system combination of SPASS and iSAT. Applied to various scenarios of traffic collision avoidance protocols, we show by experiments that SPASS(iSAT) can fully automatically proof and disproof safety properties of such protocols using the very same formalization.

Abstract
We study possibilities of combining (fragments) of the lightweight description logics ${\cal F}{\cal L}_0$ and ${\cal E}{\cal L}$, and identify classes of subsumption problems in a combination of ${\cal E}{\cal L}$ and Horn-${\cal F}{\cal L}_0$, which can be checked in PSPACE resp. PTIME. Since ${\cal F}{\cal L}_0$ allows universal role restrictions and ${\cal E}{\cal L}$ allows existential role restrictions, we thus have a framework where subsumption between expressions including both types of role restrictions (but for disjoint sets of roles) can be checked in polynomial space or time.

Lasaruk, A., & Sturm, T. (2011). Automatic Verification of the Adequacy of Models for Families of Geometric Objects. In Automated Deduction in Geometry (ADG 2008). Shanghai, China: Springer. doi:10.1007/978-3-642-21046-4_6
Abstract
We consider parametric families of semi-algebraic geometric objects, each implicitly defined by a first-order formula. Given an unambiguous description of such an object family and an intended alternative description we automatically construct a first-order formula which is true if and only if our alternative description uniquely describes geometric objects of the reference description. We can decide this formula by applying real quantifier elimination. In the positive case we furthermore derive the defining first-order formulas corresponding to our new description. In the negative case we can produce sample points establishing a counterexample for the uniqueness. We demonstrate our method by automatically proving uniqueness theorems for characterizations of several geometric primitives and simple complex objects. Finally, we focus on tori, characterizations of which can be applied in spline approximation theory with toric segments. Although we cannot yet practically solve the fundamental open questions in this area within reasonable time and space, we demonstrate that they can be formulated in our framework. In addition this points at an interesting and practically relevant challenge problem for automated deduction in geometry in general.

Abstract
Pastry is an algorithm that provides a scalable distributed hash table over an underlying P2P network. Several implementations of Pastry are available and have been applied in practice, but no attempt has so far been made to formally describe the algorithm or to verify its properties. Since Pastry combines rather complex data structures, asynchronous communication, concurrency, resilience to churn and fault tolerance, it makes an interesting target for verication. We have modeled Pastry's core routing algorithms and communication protocol in the specication language TLA+. In order to validate the model and to search for bugs we employed the TLA+ model checker tlc to analyze several qualitative properties. We obtained non-trivial insights in the behavior of Pastry through the model checking analysis. Furthermore, we started to verify Pastry using the very same model and the interactive theorem prover tlaps for TLA+. A rst result is the reduction of global Pastry correctness properties to invariants of the underlying data structures.

Abstract
We present the application of real quantifier elimination to formal verification and synthesis of continuous and switched dynamical systems. Through a series of case studies, we show how first-order formulas over the reals arise when formally analyzing models of complex control systems. Existing off-the-shelf quantifier elimination procedures are not successful in eliminating quantifiers from many of our benchmarks. We therefore automatically combine three established software components: virtual subtitution based quantifier elimination in Reduce/Redlog, cylindrical algebraic decomposition implemented in Qepcad, and the simplifier Slfq implemented on top of Qepcad. We use this combination to successfully analyze various models of systems including adaptive cruise control in automobiles, adaptive flight control system, and the classical inverted pendulum problem studied in control theory.

Abstract
We investigate algorithmic methods to tackle the following problem: Given a system of parametric ordinary differential equations built by a biological model, does there exist ranges of values for the model parameters and variables which are both meaningful from a biological point of view and where oscillating trajectories, can be found? We show that in the common case of polynomial vector fields known criteria excluding the existence of non-constant limit cycles lead to quantifier elimination problems over the reals. We apply these criteria to various models that have been previously investigated in the context of algebraic biology.

Abstract
Deduction modulo consists in presenting a theory through rewrite rules to support automatic and interactive proof search. It induces proof search methods based on narrowing, such as the polarized resolution modulo. We show how to combine this method with more traditional ordering restrictions. Interestingly, no compatibility between the rewriting and the ordering is requested to ensure completeness. We also show that some simplification rules, such as strict subsumption eliminations and demodulations, preserve completeness. For this purpose, we use a new framework based on a proof ordering. These results show that polarized resolution modulo can be integrated into existing provers, where these restrictions and simplifications are present. We also discuss how this integration can actually be done by diverting the main algorithm of state-of-the-art provers.

Abstract
The focus of this paper is on reducing the complexity in verification by exploiting modularity at various levels: in specification, in verification, and structurally. \begin{itemize} \item For specifications, we use the modular language CSP-OZ-DC, which allows us to decouple verification tasks concerning data from those concerning durations. \item At the verification level, we exploit modularity in theorem proving for rich data structures and use this for invariant checking. \item At the structural level, we analyze possibilities for modular verification of systems consisting of various components which interact. \end{itemize} We illustrate these ideas by automatically verifying safety properties of a case study from the European Train Control System standard, which extends previous examples by comprising a complex track topology with lists of track segments and trains with different routes.

Abstract
This paper discusses the analysis of first-order probabilistic timed automata (FPTA) by a combination of hierarchic first-order superposition-based theorem proving and probabilistic model checking. We develop the overall semantics of FPTAs and prove soundness and completeness of our method for reachability properties. Basically, we decompose FPTAs into their time plus first-order logic aspects on the one hand, and their probabilistic aspects on the other hand. Then we exploit the time plus first-order behavior by hierarchic superposition over linear arithmetic. The result of this analysis is the basis for the construction of a reachability equivalent (to the original FPTA) probabilistic timed automaton to which probabilistic model checking is finally applied. The hierarchic superposition calculus required for the analysis is sound and complete on the first-order formulas generated from FPTAs. It even works well in practice. We illustrate the potential behind it with a real-life DHCP protocol example, which we analyze by means of tool chain support.

Abstract
Disunification is an extension of unification to first-order formulae over syntactic equality atoms. Instead of considering only syntactic equality, I extend a disunification algorithm by Comon and Delor to ultimately periodic interpretations, i.e.~minimal many-sorted Herbrand models of predicative Horn clauses and, for some sorts, equations of the form $s^\upmb(x)\eq s^\upma(x)$. The extended algorithm is terminating and correct for ultimately periodic interpretations over a finite signature and gives rise to a decision procedure for the satisfiability of equational formulae in ultimately periodic interpretations. As an application, I show how to apply disunification to compute the completion of predicates with respect to an ultimately periodic interpretation. Such completions are a key ingredient to several inductionless induction methods.

Abstract
Superposition is an established decision procedure for a variety of first-order logic theories represented by sets of clauses. A satisfiable theory, saturated by superposition, implicitly defines a minimal Herbrand model for the theory. This raises the question in how far superposition calculi can be employed for reasoning about such minimal models. This is indeed often possible when existential properties are considered. However, proving universal properties directly leads to a modification of the minimal model's term-generated domain, as new Skolem functions are introduced. For many applications, this is not desired because it changes the problem. In this thesis, I propose the first superposition calculus that can explicitly represent existentially quantified variables and can thus compute with respect to a given fixed domain. It does not eliminate existential variables by Skolemization, but handles them using additional constraints with which each clause is annotated. This calculus is sound and refutationally complete in the limit for a fixed domain semantics. For saturated Horn theories and classes of positive formulas, the calculus is even complete for proving properties of the minimal model itself, going beyond the scope of known superposition-based approaches. The calculus is applicable to every set of clauses with equality and does not rely on any syntactic restrictions of the input. Extensions of the calculus lead to various new decision procedures for minimal model validity. A main feature of these decision procedures is that even the validity of queries containing one quantifier alternation can be decided. In particular, I prove that the validity of any formula with at most one quantifier alternation is decidable in models represented by a finite set of atoms and that the validity of several classes of such formulas is decidable in models represented by so-called disjunctions of implicit generalizations. Moreover, I show that the decision of minimal model validity can be reduced to the superposition-based decision of first-order validity for models of a class of predicative Horn clauses where all function symbols are at most unary.

Abstract
This system description provides an overview of H-PILoT (Hierarchical Proving by Instantiation in Local Theory extensions), a program for hierarchical reasoning in extensions of logical theories. H-PILoT reduces deduction problems in the theory extension to deduction problems in the base theory. Specialized provers and standard SMT solvers can be used for testing the satisfiability of the formulae obtained after the reduction. For a certain type of theory extension (namely for {\em local theory extensions}) this hierarchical reduction is sound and complete and -- if the formulae obtained this way belong to a fragment decidable in the base theory -- H-PILoT provides a decision procedure for testing satisfiability of ground formulae, and can also be used for model generation.

Abstract
In this paper we study theory combinations over non-disjoint signatures in which hierarchical and modular reasoning is possible. We use a notion of locality of a theory extension parameterized by a closure operator on ground terms. We give criteria for recognizing these types of theory extensions. We then show that combinations of extensions of theories which are local in this extended sense have also a locality property and hence allow modular and hierarchical reasoning. We thus obtain parameterized decidability and complexity results for many (combinations of) theories important in verification.

Abstract
Verification problems are often expressed in a language which mixes several theories. A natural question to ask is whether one can use decision procedures for individual theories to construct a decision procedure for the union theory. In the cases where this is possible one has a powerful method at hand to handle complex theories effectively. The setup considered in this thesis is that of one base theory which is extended by one or more theories. The question is if and when a given ground satisfiability problem in the extended setting can be effectively reduced to an equi-satisfiable problem over the base theory. A case where this reductive approach is always possible is that of so-called \emph{local theory extensions.} The theory of local extensions is developed and some applications concerning monotone functions are given. Then the theory of local theory extensions is generalized in order to deal with data structures that exhibit local behavior. It will be shown that a suitable fragment of both the theory of arrays and the theory of pointers is local in this broader sense. % Finally, the case of more than one theory extension is discussed. In particular, a \emph{modularity} result is given that under certain circumstances the locality of each of the extensions lifts to locality of the entire extension. The reductive approach outlined above has become particularly relevant in recent years due to the rise of powerful solvers for background theories common in verification tasks. These so-called SMT-solvers effectively handle theories such as real linear or integer arithmetic. As part of this thesis, a program called \emph{\mbox{H-PILoT}} was implemented which carries out reductive reasoning for local theory extensions. H-PILoT found applications in mathematics, multiple-valued logics, data-structures and reasoning in complex systems.

H-PILoT found applications in mathematics, multiple-valued logics, data-structures and reasoning in complex systems. %U http://scidok.sulb.uni-saarland.de/volltexte/2010/3472/http://scidok.sulb.uni-saarland.de/doku/lic_ohne_pod.php?la=de

Abstract
Pastry is an algorithm for implementing a scalable distributed hash table over an underlying P2P network, an active area of research in distributed systems. Several implementations of Pastry are available and have been applied in practice, but no attempt has so far been made to formally describe the algorithm or to verify its properties. Since Pastry combines rather complex data structures, asynchronous communication, concurrency, resilience to \emph{churn} and fault tolerance, it makes an interesting target for verification. We have modeled Pastry's core routing algorithms in the specification language \texorpdfstring{\textrm{\upshape TLA\textsuperscript{+}}}{TLA+} and used its model checker \textsc{tlc} to analyze qualitative properties of Pastry such as \emph{correctness} and \emph{consistency}.

Abstract
Interpolation is an important component of recent methods for program verification. It provides a natural and effective means for computing the separation between the sets of ‘good’ and ‘bad’ states. The existing algorithms for interpolant generation are proof-based: They require explicit construction of proofs, from which interpolants can be computed. Construction of such proofs is a difficult task. We propose an algorithm for the generation of interpolants for the combined theory of linear arithmetic and uninterpreted function symbols that does not require a priori constructed proofs to derive interpolants. It uses a reduction of the problem to constraint solving in linear arithmetic, which allows application of existing highly optimized Linear Programming solvers in a black-box fashion. We provide experimental evidence of the practical applicability of our algorithm.

Abstract
We study possibilities of reasoning about extensions of base theories with functions which satisfy certain recursion and homomorphism properties. Our focus is on emphasizing possibilities of hierarchical and modular reasoning in such extensions and combinations thereof. \begin{itemize} \item[(1)] We show that the theory of absolutely free constructors is local, and locality is preserved also in the presence of selectors. These results are consistent with existing decision procedures for this theory (e.g. by Oppen). \item[(2)] We show that, under certain assumptions, extensions of the theory of absolutely free constructors with functions satisfying a certain type of recursion axioms satisfy locality properties, and show that for functions with values in an ordered domain we can combine recursive definitions with boundedness axioms without sacrificing locality. We also address the problem of only considering models whose data part is the {em initial} term algebra of such theories. \item[(3)] We analyze conditions which ensure that similar results can be obtained if we relax some assumptions about the absolute freeness of the underlying theory of data types, and illustrate the ideas on an example from cryptography. \end{itemize} The locality results we establish allow us to reduce the task of reasoning about the class of recursive functions we consider to reasoning in the underlying theory of data structures (possibly combined with the theories associated with the co-domains of the recursive functions). As a by-product, the methods we use provide a possibility of presenting in a different light (and in a different form) locality phenomena studied in cryp-to-gra-phy; we believe that they will allow to better separate rewriting from proving, and thus to give simpler proofs.

Abstract
We study certain classes of verification problems for parametric reactive and hybrid systems, and identify the types of logical theories which can be used for modeling such systems and the reasoning tasks which need to be solved in this context. We identify properties of the underlying theories which ensure that these classes of verification problems can be solved efficiently, give examples of theories with the desired properties, and illustrate the methods we use on several examples.

Abstract
YAGO is an automatically generated ontology out of Wikipedia and WordNet. It is eventually represented in a proprietary flat text file format and a core comprises 10 million facts and formulas. We present a translation of YAGO into the Bernays-Sch¨onfinkel Horn class with equality. A new variant of the superposition calculus is sound, complete and terminating for this class. Together with extended term indexing data structures the new calculus is implemented in Spass-YAGO. YAGO can be finitely saturated by Spass-YAGO in about 1 hour.We have found 49 inconsistencies in the original generated ontology which we have fixed. Spass-YAGO can then prove non-trivial conjectures with respect to the resulting saturated and consistent clause set of about 1.4 GB in less than one second.

Abstract
Decision procedures are key components of theorem provers and constraint satisfaction systems. Their modular combination is of prime interest for building efficient systems, but their effective use is often limited by poor interface capabilities, when such procedures only provide a simple sat/unsat'' answer. In this paper, we develop a framework to design cooperation schemas between such procedures while maintaining modularity of their interfaces. First, we use the framework to specify and prove the correctness of classic combination schemas by Nelson-Oppen and Shostak. Second, we introduce the concept of deduction complete satisfiability procedures, we show how to build them for large classes of theories, then we provide a schema to modularly combine them. Third, we consider the problem of modularly constructing explanations for combinations by re-using available proof-producing procedures for the component theories.

Abstract
We present a new calculus for first-order theorem proving with equality, ME+Sup, which generalizes both the Superposition calculus and the Model Evolution calculus (with equality) by integrating their inference rules and redundancy criteria in a non-trivial way. The main motivation is to combine the advantageous features of both---rather complementary---calculi in a single framework. For instance, Model Evolution, as a lifted version of the propositional DPLL procedure, contributes a non-ground splitting rule that effectively permits to split a clause into non variable disjoint subclauses. In the paper we present the calculus in detail. Our main result is its completeness under semantically justified redundancy criteria and simplification rules.

Abstract
We present a new saturation-based decidability result for inductive validity. Let $\Sigma$ be a finite signature in which all function symbols are at most unary and let $N$ be a satisfiable Horn clause set without equality in which all positive literals are linear. If $N\cup\{A_1,\ldots,A_n\rightarrow\}$ belongs to a finitely saturating clause class, then it is decidable whether a sentence of the form $\forall\exists^* (A_1\wedge\ldots\wedge A_n)$ is valid in the minimal model of $N$.

Abstract
Superposition is an established decision procedure for a variety of first-order logic theories represented by sets of clauses. A satisfiable theory, saturated by superposition, implicitly defines a minimal term-generated model for the theory. Proving universal properties with respect to a saturated theory directly leads to a modification of the minimal model's term-generated domain, as new Skolem functions are introduced. For many applications, this is not desired. Therefore, we propose the first superposition calculus that can explicitly represent existentially quantified variables and can thus compute with respect to a given domain. This calculus is sound and refutationally complete in the limit for a first-order fixed domain semantics. For saturated Horn theories and classes of positive formulas, we can even employ the calculus to prove properties of the minimal model itself, going beyond the scope of known superposition-based approaches.

Abstract
Saturation-based calculi such as superposition can be successfully instantiated to decision procedures for many decidable fragments of first-order logic. In case of termination without generating an empty clause, a saturated clause set implicitly represents a minimal model for all clauses, based on the underlying term ordering of the superposition calculus. In general, it is not decidable whether a ground atom, a clause or even a formula holds in this minimal model of a satisfiable saturated clause set. We extend our superposition calculus for fixed domains with syntactic disequality constraints in a non-equational setting. Based on this calculus, we present several new decidability results for validity in the minimal model of a satisfiable finitely saturated clause set that in particular extend the decidability results known for ARM (Atomic Representations of term Models) and DIG (Disjunctions of Implicit Generalizations) model representations.

Abstract
Saturation-based calculi such as superposition can be successfully instantiated to decision procedures for many decidable fragments of first-order logic. In case of termination without generating an empty clause, a saturated clause set implicitly represents a minimal model for all clauses, based on the underlying term ordering of the superposition calculus. In general, it is not decidable whether a ground atom, a clause or even a formula holds in this minimal model of a satisfiable saturated clause set. Based on an extension of our superposition calculus for fixed domains with syntactic disequality constraints in a non-equational setting, we describe models given by ARM (Atomic Representations of term Models) or DIG (Disjunctions of Implicit Generalizations) representations as minimal models of finite saturated clause sets. This allows us to present several new decidability results for validity in such models. These results extend in particular the known decidability results for ARM and DIG representations.

Abstract
H-PILoT (Hierarchical Proving by Instantiation in Local Theory extensions) is a program for hierarchical reasoning in extensions of logical theories with additional functions axiomatized by a set of (universally quantified) clauses: deduction problems in the theory extension are reduced to deduction problems in the base theory. Specialized provers, as well as standard SMT solvers, are then used for testing the satisfiability of the formulae obtained after the reduction. The hierarchical reduction used in H-PILoT is always sound; it is complete for the class of so-called local extensions of a base theory. If the clauses obtained by this reduction belong to a fragment decidable in the base theory, H-PILoT provides a decision procedure for testing satisfiability of ground formulae w.r.t.\ a theory extension, and can also be used for model generation. This is the major advantage of H-PILoT compared with other state-of-the art SMT solvers. H-PILoT can alternatively be used as a tool for steering'' the instantiation mechanism of standard SMT provers, in order to provide decision procedures in the case of local theory extensions. This system description provides an overview of H-PILoT and illustrates on some examples the main advantage of using H-PILoT for satisfiability checking in local extensions, in comparison with the performance of general state of the art SMT-provers.

Abstract
Many verification approaches use SMT solvers in some form, and are limited by their incomplete handling of quantified formulas. Local reasoning allows to handle SMT problems involving a certain class of universally quantified formulas in a complete way by instantiation to a finite set of ground formulas. We present a method to generate these instances incrementally, in order to provide a more efficient way of solving these satisfiability problems. The incremental instantiation is guided semantically, inspired by the instance generation approach to first-order theorem proving. Our method is sound and complete, and terminates on both satisfiable and unsatisfiable input after generating a subset of the instances needed in standard local reasoning. Experimental results show that for a large class of examples the incremental approach is substantially more efficient than eager generation of all instances.

Lamotte-Schubert, M., & Weidenbach, C. (2009a). Analysis of Authorizations in SAP R/3. In FTP 2009 Workshop Proceedings.
Abstract
Today many companies use an ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system such as SAP R/3~to run their daily business ranging from financial issues down to the actual control of a production line. Already due to their sheer size, these systems are very complex. In particular, developing and maintaining the authorization setup is a challenge. The goal of our effort is to automatically analyze the authorization setup of an SAP R/3~system against business policies. To this end we formalize the processes, authorization setup as well as the business policies in first-order logic. Then, properties can be (dis)proven fully automatically with our theorem prover \textsc{Spass}. We exemplify our approach on the purchase process, a typical constituent of any SAP R/3~installation.

Abstract
In this paper we show that states, transitions and behavior of concurrent systems can often be modeled as sheaves over a suitable topological space. In this context, geometric logic can be used to describe which local properties, of individual systems, are preserved, at a global level, when interconnecting the systems. The main area of application is to modular verification of complex systems. We illustrate our ideas by means of an example involving a family of interacting controllers for trains on a rail track.

Abstract
n this paper we study possibilities of reasoning about functions over theories of data types which satisfy certain recursion (or homomorphism) properties, with a focus on emphasizing possibilities of hierarchical and modular reasoning in such extensions and combinations thereof. We start by considering theories of absolutely free data structures, and continue by studying extensions of such theories with selectors, with functions which attach scalar data to the data structures and with additional functions defined using a certain type of recursion axioms (possibly having values in a different -- e.g.\ numeric -- domain). We show that in these cases locality results can be established. This allows us to reduce the task of reasoning about the class of recursive functions we consider to reasoning in the underlying theory of absolutely free data structures (resp. in a combination of the theory of absolutely free data structures with the theory attached with the domains of the additional functions). We then show that similar results can be obtained if we relax some assumptions about the absolute freeness of the underlying theory of data types. We investigate the applications of these ideas in verification and cryptography.

Abstract
In recent years there has been a growing demand for Automated Theorem Proving (ATP) in large theories, which often have more axioms than can be handled effectively as normal internal axioms. This work addresses the issues of accessing \emph{external sources of axioms} from a first-order logic ATP system, and presents an implemented ATP system that retrieves external axioms asynchronously, on demand.

Abstract
We define a superposition calculus with explicit splitting and an explicit, new backtracking rule on the basis of labelled clauses. For the first time we show a superposition calculus with explicit backtracking rule sound and complete. The new backtracking rule advances backtracking with branch condensing known from SPASS. An experimental evaluation of an implementation of the new rule shows that it improves considerably the previous SPASS splitting implementation. Finally, we discuss the relationship between labelled first-order splitting and DPLL style splitting with intelligent backtracking and clause learning.

Abstract
Two apparently different approaches to automating deduction are mentioned in the title; they are the subject of a debate on big engines vs.\ little engines of proof''. The contributions in this thesis advocate that these two strands of research can interplay in subtle and sometimes unexpected ways, such that mutual pervasion can lead to intriguing results: Firstly, superposition can be run on top of decision procedures. This we demonstrate for the class of Shostak theories, incorporating a little engine into a big one. As another instance of decision procedures within superposition, we show that ground confluent rewrite systems, which decide entailment problems in equational logic, can be harnessed for detecting redundancies in superposition derivations. Secondly, superposition can be employed as proof-theoretic means underneath combined decision procedures: We re-establish the correctness of the Nelson-Oppen procedure as an instance of the completeness of superposition. Thirdly, superposition can be used as a decision procedure for many interesting theories, turning a big engine into a little one. For the theory of bits and of fixed-size bitvectors, we suggest a rephrased axiomatization combined with a transformation of conjectures, based on which superposition decides the universal fragment. Furthermore, with a modification of lifting, we adapt superposition to the theory of bounded domains and give a decision procedure, which captures the Bernays-Schönfinkel class as well.

Abstract
We present a general framework which allows to identify complex theories important in verification for which efficient reasoning methods exist. The framework we present is based on a general notion of locality. We show that locality considerations allow us to obtain parameterized decidability and complexity results for many (combinations of) theories important in verification in general and in the verification of parametric systems in particular. We give numerous examples; in particular we show that several theories of data structures studied in the verification literature are local extensions of a base theory. The general framework we use allows us to identify situations in which some of the syntactical restrictions imposed in previous papers can be relaxed.

Abstract
Local reasoning allows to handle SMT problems involving a certain class of universally quantified formulas in a complete way by instantiation to a finite set of ground formulas. We present a method to generate this set incrementally, in order to provide a more efficient way of solving these satisfiability problems. The incremental instantiation is guided semantically, inspired by the instance generation approach to first-order theorem proving. Our method is sound and complete, and terminates on both satisfiable and unsatisfiable input after generating a subset of the instances needed in standard local reasoning.

Lamotte, M. (2008). Analysis of Authorizations in SAP R/3. Universität des Saarlandes, Saarbrücken.
Abstract
Today many companies use an ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system such as the SAP R/3 system to run their daily business ranging from financial issues down to the actual control of a production line. These systems are very complex from the view of administration and authorization. Hence they include a high potential for errors. In this thesis I analyze the authorization concept of the SAP R/3 system as well as different business regulations and construct a corresponding model in first-order logic. This model can be used to check the existence of errors automatically, i.e. a contradiction between given authorizations and a valid business regulation. The tool I use for these checks is the theorem prover \textscSpass which has been developed at the Max Planck Institute for Informatics. I selected the purchase process as an example to explore the model construction because it is a typical constituent of the SAP R/3 system.

Abstract
We show that many properties studied in mathematical analysis (e.g.\ monotonicity, boundedness, inverse or Lipschitz properties, possibly combined with continuity and/or derivability) are expressible as axioms in a class for which sound and complete hierarchical proof methods for testing satisfiability of ground formulae exist. The results are useful for automated reasoning in analysis, and in the verification of hybrid systems.

Abstract
In this paper we show that subsumption problems in many lightweight description logics (including ${\cal EL}$) can be expressed as uniform word problems in classes of semilattices with monotone operators. We use possibilities of efficient local reasoning in such classes of algebras to obtain uniform PTIME decision procedures for CBox subsumption in ${\cal EL}$ and extensions thereof. These locality considerations allow us to present a new family of logics which extend ${\cal EL}$ and also a new extension of ${\cal EL}^+$.

Sofronie-Stokkermans, V. (2008d). Interpolation in local theory extensions. Logical Methods in Computer Science, 4(4). doi:10.2168/LMCS-4(4:1)2008
Abstract
In this paper we study interpolation in local extensions of a base theory. We identify situations in which it is possible to obtain interpolants in a hierarchical manner, by using a prover and a procedure for generating interpolants in the base theory as black-boxes. We present several examples of theory extensions in which interpolants can be computed this way, and discuss applications in verification, knowledge representation, and modular reasoning in combinations of local theories.

We identify situations in which it is possible to obtain interpolants in a hierarchical manner, by using a prover and a procedure for generating interpolants in the base theory as black-boxes.
