A Canonical Form for Universe Levels in Impredicative Type Theory

Authors: Yoan Géran

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 363, 34th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2026)

Abstract
The 0-imax-successor algebra, where imax: ℕ × ℕ → ℕ is the function defined by imax(n, 0) = 0 and imax(n, S(m)) = max(n, S(m)), is used to represent universe levels in impredicative type theory, in particular with universe polymorphism which introduces level variables, so it is present in proof systems such as Rocq and Lean. In particular, we need to know when two elements of this algebra are equivalent, and we may also want to decide the inequality. In this article, we introduce a canonical form for the terms of this algebra, and we provide a canonization algorithm. It permits deciding level equivalence by checking the canonical form equality, and also permits easily checking if a level is smaller than another one.

Relational Approximations for Subspace Primitives

Authors: Xiang Liu and Kasturi Varadarajan

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 353, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2025)

Abstract
We explore fundamental geometric computations on point sets that are given to the algorithm implicitly. In particular, we are given a database which is a collection of tables with numerical values, and the geometric computation is to be performed on the join of the tables. Explicitly computing this join takes time exponential in the size of the tables. We are therefore interested in geometric problems that can be solved by algorithms whose running time is a polynomial in the size of the tables. Such relational algorithms are typically not able to explicitly compute the join. To avoid the NP-completeness bottleneck, researchers assume that the tables have a tractable combinatorial structure, like being acyclic. Even with this assumption, simple geometric computations turn out to be non-trivial and sometimes intractable. In this article, we study the problem of computing the maximum distance of a point in the join to a given subspace, and develop approximation algorithms for this NP-hard problem.

Efficient Neural Network Verification via Order Leading Exploration of Branch-and-Bound Trees

Authors: Guanqin Zhang, Kota Fukuda, Zhenya Zhang, H.M.N. Dilum Bandara, Shiping Chen, Jianjun Zhao, and Yulei Sui

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 333, 39th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2025)

Abstract
The vulnerability of neural networks to adversarial perturbations has necessitated formal verification techniques that can rigorously certify the quality of neural networks. As the state-of-the-art, branch-and-bound (BaB) is a "divide-and-conquer" strategy that applies off-the-shelf verifiers to sub-problems for which they perform better. While BaB can identify the sub-problems that are necessary to be split, it explores the space of these sub-problems in a naive "first-come-first-served" manner, thereby suffering from an issue of inefficiency to reach a verification conclusion. To bridge this gap, we introduce an order over different sub-problems produced by BaB, concerning with their different likelihoods of containing counterexamples. Based on this order, we propose a novel verification framework Oliva that explores the sub-problem space by prioritizing those sub-problems that are more likely to find counterexamples, in order to efficiently reach the conclusion of the verification. Even if no counterexample can be found in any sub-problem, it only changes the order of visiting different sub-problems and so will not lead to a performance degradation. Specifically, Oliva has two variants, including Oliva^GR, a greedy strategy that always prioritizes the sub-problems that are more likely to find counterexamples, and Oliva^SA, a balanced strategy inspired by simulated annealing that gradually shifts from exploration to exploitation to locate the globally optimal sub-problems. We experimentally evaluate the performance of Oliva on 690 verification problems spanning over 5 models with datasets MNIST and CIFAR-10. Compared to the state-of-the-art approaches, we demonstrate the speedup of Oliva for up to 25× in MNIST, and up to 80× in CIFAR-10.

Confluence of Layered Rewrite Systems

Authors: Jiaxiang Liu, Jean-Pierre Jouannaud, and Mizuhito Ogawa

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 41, 24th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2015)

Abstract
We investigate a new, Turing-complete class of layered systems, whose linearized lefthand sides of rules can only be overlapped at the root position. Layered systems define a natural notion of rank for terms: the maximal number of redexes along a path from the root to a leaf. Overlappings are allowed in finite or infinite trees. Rules may be non-terminating, non-left-linear, or non-right- linear. Using a novel unification technique, cyclic unification, we show that rank non-increasing layered systems are confluent provided their cyclic critical pairs have cyclic-joinable decreasing diagrams.
