Negated String Containment Is Decidable

Authors: Vojtěch Havlena, Michal Hečko, Lukáš Holík, and Ondřej Lengál

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 345, 50th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2025)

Abstract
We provide a positive answer to a long-standing open question of the decidability of the not-contains string predicate. Not-contains is practically relevant, for instance in symbolic execution of string manipulating programs. Particularly, we show that the predicate ¬Contains(x₁ … x_n, y₁ … y_m), where x₁ … x_n and y₁ … y_m are sequences of string variables constrained by regular languages, is decidable. Decidability of a not-contains predicate combined with chain-free word equations and regular membership constraints follows.

Quantitative Language Automata

Authors: Thomas A. Henzinger, Pavol Kebis, Nicolas Mazzocchi, and N. Ege Saraç

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 348, 36th International Conference on Concurrency Theory (CONCUR 2025)

Abstract
A quantitative word automaton (QWA) defines a function from infinite words to values. For example, every infinite run of a limit-average QWA 𝒜 obtains a mean payoff, and every word w ∈ Σ^ω is assigned the maximal mean payoff obtained by nondeterministic runs of 𝒜 over w. We introduce quantitative language automata (QLAs) that define functions from language generators (i.e., implementations) to values, where a language generator can be nonprobabilistic, defining a set of infinite words, or probabilistic, defining a probability measure over infinite words. A QLA consists of a QWA and an aggregator function. For example, given a QWA 𝒜, the infimum aggregator maps each language L ⊆ Σ^ω to the greatest lower bound assigned by 𝒜 to any word in L. For boolean value sets, QWAs define boolean properties of traces, and QLAs define boolean properties of sets of traces, i.e., hyperproperties. For more general value sets, QLAs serve as a specification language for a generalization of hyperproperties, called quantitative hyperproperties. A nonprobabilistic (resp. probabilistic) quantitative hyperproperty assigns a value to each set (resp. distribution) G of traces, e.g., the minimal (resp. expected) average response time exhibited by the traces in G. We give several examples of quantitative hyperproperties and investigate three paradigmatic problems for QLAs: evaluation, nonemptiness, and universality. In the evaluation problem, given a QLA 𝔸 and an implementation G, we ask for the value that 𝔸 assigns to G. In the nonemptiness (resp. universality) problem, given a QLA 𝔸 and a value k, we ask whether 𝔸 assigns at least k to some (resp. every) language. We provide a comprehensive picture of decidability for these problems for QLAs with common aggregators as well as their restrictions to ω-regular languages and trace distributions generated by finite-state Markov chains.

Cooking String-Integer Conversions with Noodles

Authors: Vojtěch Havlena, Lukáš Holík, Ondřej Lengál, and Juraj Síč

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 305, 27th International Conference on Theory and Applications of Satisfiability Testing (SAT 2024)

Abstract
We propose a method for efficient handling string constraints with string-integer conversions. It extends the recently introduced stabilization-based procedure for solving string (dis)equations with regular and length constraints. Our approach is to translate the conversions into a linear integer arithmetic formula, together with regular constraints and word equations. We have integrated it into the string solver Z3-Noodler, and our experiments show that it is competitive and on some established benchmarks even several orders of magnitude faster than the state of the art.

Reducing (To) the Ranks: Efficient Rank-Based Büchi Automata Complementation

Authors: Vojtěch Havlena and Ondřej Lengál

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 203, 32nd International Conference on Concurrency Theory (CONCUR 2021)

Abstract
This paper provides several optimizations of the rank-based approach for complementing Büchi automata. We start with Schewe’s theoretically optimal construction and develop a set of techniques for pruning its state space that are key to obtaining small complement automata in practice. In particular, the reductions (except one) have the property that they preserve (at least some) so-called super-tight runs, which are runs whose ranking is as tight as possible. Our evaluation on a large benchmark shows that the optimizations indeed significantly help the rank-based approach and that, in a large number of cases, the obtained complement is the smallest from those produced by state-of-the-art tools for Büchi complementation.
