A Modular Framework for Proof-Search via Formalised Modal Completeness in HOL Light

Authors: Antonella Bilotta, Marco Maggesi, and Cosimo Perini Brogi

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

Abstract
We extend the existing HOL Light Library for Modal Systems (HOLMS) to support a modular implementation of modal reasoning within the HOL Light proof assistant. We deeply embed axiomatic calculi and relational semantics for seven normal modal logics (K, T, B, K4, S4, S5, GL) and formalise modal adequacy theorems for these systems. We then leverage those formalisations to implement a mechanism for automated reasoning via proof-search in the associated labelled sequent calculi, which we shallowly embed in HOL Light’s goal-stack mechanism. This way, we equip the general-purpose proof assistant with (semi)decision procedures for these logics that, in case of failure to construct a proof for the input formula, return a certified countermodel within the appropriate class for the logic under consideration. On the methodological side, we propose a precise measure of the modularity of our approach by systematically adopting Christopher Strachey’s distinction between ad hoc and parametric polymorphism throughout the library.

Cyclic Proof Theory of Generalised Inductive Definitions

Authors: Gianluca Curzi and Lukas Melgaard

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

Abstract
We study cyclic proof systems for μPA, an extension of Peano arithmetic by generalised inductive definitions that is arithmetically equivalent to the (impredicative) subsystem of second-order arithmetic Π^1_2-CA₀ by Möllerfeld. The main result of this paper is that cyclic and inductive μPA have the same proof-theoretic strength. First, we translate cyclic proofs into an annotated variant based on Sprenger and Dam’s systems for first-order μ-calculus, whose stronger validity condition allows for a simpler proof of soundness. We then formalise this argument within Π^1_2-CA₀, leveraging Möllerfeld’s conservativity properties. To this end, we build on prior work by Curzi and Das on the reverse mathematics of the Knaster-Tarski theorem. As a byproduct of our proof methods we show that, despite the stronger validity condition, annotated and "plain" cyclic proofs for μPA prove the same theorems. This work represents a further step in the non-wellfounded proof-theoretic analysis of theories of arithmetic via impredicative fragments of second-order arithmetic, an approach initiated by Simpson’s Cyclic Arithmetic, and continued by Das and Melgaard in the context of arithmetical inductive definitions.

On-Chain Decentralized Learning and Cost-Effective Inference for DeFi Attack Mitigation

Authors: Abdulrahman Alhaidari, Balaji Palanisamy, and Prashant Krishnamurthy

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 354, 7th Conference on Advances in Financial Technologies (AFT 2025)

Abstract
Billions of dollars are lost every year in DeFi platforms by transactions exploiting business logic or accounting vulnerabilities. Existing defenses focus on static code analysis, public mempool screening, attacker contract detection, or trusted off-chain monitors, none of which prevents exploits submitted through private relays or malicious contracts that execute within the same block. We present the first decentralized, fully on-chain learning framework that: (i) performs gas-prohibitive computation on Layer-2 to reduce cost, (ii) propagates verified model updates to Layer-1, and (iii) enables gas-bounded, low-latency inference inside smart contracts. A novel Proof-of-Improvement (PoIm) protocol governs the training process and verifies each decentralized micro update as a self-verifying training transaction. Updates are accepted by PoIm only if they demonstrably improve at least one core metric (e.g., accuracy, F1-score, precision, or recall) on a public benchmark without degrading any of the other core metrics, while adversarial proposals get financially penalized through an adaptable test set for evolving threats. We develop quantization and loop-unrolling techniques that enable inference for logistic regression, SVM, MLPs, CNNs, and gated RNNs (with support for formally verified decision tree inference) within the Ethereum block gas limit, while remaining bit-exact to their off-chain counterparts, formally proven in Z3. We curate 298 unique real-world exploits (2020 - 2025) with 402 exploit transactions across eight EVM chains, collectively responsible for $3.74 B in losses. We demonstrate that on-chain ML governed by PoIm detects previously unseen attacks with over 97% attack detection accuracy and 82.0% F1. A single inference, such as one made via an external call, typically incurs zero cost. Fully on-chain inference consumes 57,603 gas (≈ $0.18) for linear models, 143,647 gas (≈ $0.49) for CNN(F2, K1), and 506,397 gas (≈ $1.77) for CNN(F8, K4) on L1 (e.g., Ethereum). Our results show that practical and continually evolving DeFi defenses can be embedded directly in protocol logic without trusted guardians, and our solution achieves highly cost-effective protection while filling a critical gap between vulnerability scanners and real-time transaction screening.

A Formalization of Divided Powers in Lean

Authors: Antoine Chambert-Loir and María Inés de Frutos-Fernández

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 352, 16th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2025)

Abstract
Given an ideal I in a commutative ring A, a divided power structure on I is a collection of maps {γ_n : I → A}_{n ∈ ℕ}, subject to axioms that imply that it behaves like the family {x ↦ xⁿ/n!}_{n ∈ ℕ}, but which can be defined even when division by factorials is not possible in A. Divided power structures have important applications in diverse areas of mathematics, including algebraic topology, number theory and algebraic geometry. In this article we describe a formalization in Lean 4 of the basic theory of divided power structures, including divided power morphisms and sub-divided power ideals, and we provide several fundamental constructions, in particular quotients and sums. This constitutes the first formalization of this theory in any theorem prover. As a prerequisite of general interest, we expand the formalized theory of multivariate power series rings, endowing them with a topology and defining evaluation and substitution of power series.

A Certified Proof Checker for Deep Neural Network Verification in Imandra

Authors: Remi Desmartin, Omri Isac, Grant Passmore, Ekaterina Komendantskaya, Kathrin Stark, and Guy Katz

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 352, 16th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2025)

Abstract
Recent advances in the verification of deep neural networks (DNNs) have opened the way for a broader usage of DNN verification technology in many application areas, including safety-critical ones. However, DNN verifiers are themselves complex programs that have been shown to be susceptible to errors and numerical imprecision; this, in turn, has raised the question of trust in DNN verifiers. One prominent attempt to address this issue is enhancing DNN verifiers with the capability of producing certificates of their results that are subject to independent algorithmic checking. While formulations of Marabou certificate checking already exist on top of the state-of-the-art DNN verifier Marabou, they are implemented in C++, and that code itself raises the question of trust (e.g., in the precision of floating point calculations or guarantees for implementation soundness). Here, we present an alternative implementation of the Marabou certificate checking in Imandra - an industrial functional programming language and an interactive theorem prover (ITP) - that allows us to obtain full proof of certificate correctness. The significance of the result is two-fold. Firstly, it gives stronger independent guarantees for Marabou proofs. Secondly, it opens the way for the wider adoption of DNN verifiers in interactive theorem proving in the same way as many ITPs already incorporate SMT solvers.

Verifying Datalog Reasoning with Lean

Authors: Johannes Tantow, Lukas Gerlach, Stephan Mennicke, and Markus Krötzsch

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 352, 16th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2025)

Abstract
Datalog is an essential logical rule language with many applications, and modern rule engines compute logical consequences for Datalog with high performance and scalability. While Datalog is rather simple and, in principle, explainable by design, such sophisticated implementations and optimizations are hard to verify. We therefore propose a certificate-based approach to validate results of Datalog reasoners in a formally verified checker for Datalog proofs. Using the proof assistant Lean, we implement such a checker and verify its correctness against direct formalizations of the Datalog semantics. We propose two JSON encodings for Datalog proofs: one using the widely supported Datalog proof trees, and one using directed acyclic graphs for succinctness. To evaluate the practical feasibility and performance of our approach, we validate proofs that we obtain by converting derivation traces of an existing Datalog reasoner into our tool-independent format.

Improving the SMT Proof Reconstruction Pipeline in Isabelle/HOL

Authors: Hanna Lachnitt, Mathias Fleury, Haniel Barbosa, Jibiana Jakpor, Bruno Andreotti, Andrew Reynolds, Hans-Jörg Schurr, Clark Barrett, and Cesare Tinelli

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 352, 16th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2025)

Abstract
Sledgehammer is a tool that increases the level of automation in the Isabelle/HOL proof assistant by asking external automatic theorem provers (ATPs), including SMT solvers, to prove the current goal. When the external ATP succeeds it must provide enough evidence that the goal holds for Isabelle to be able to reprove it internally based on that evidence. In particular, Isabelle can do this by replaying fine-grained proof certificates from proof-producing SMT solvers as long as they are expressed in the Alethe format, which until now was supported only by the veriT SMT solver. We report on our experience adding proof reconstruction support for the cvc5 SMT solver in Isabelle by extending cvc5 to produce proofs in the Alethe format and then adapting Isabelle to reconstruct those proofs. We discuss several difficulties and pitfalls we encountered and describe a set of tools and techniques we developed to improve the process. A notable outcome of this effort is that Isabelle can now be used as an independent proof checker for SMT problems written in the SMT-LIB standard. We evaluate cvc5’s integration on a set of SMT-LIB benchmarks originating from Isabelle as well as on a set of Isabelle proofs. Our results confirm that this integration complements and improves Sledgehammer’s capabilities.

Sledgehammering Without ATPs (Short Paper)

Authors: Martin Desharnais and Jasmin Blanchette

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 352, 16th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2025)

Abstract
We describe an alternative architecture for "hammers," inspired by Magnushammer, in which proofs are found by the proof assistant’s built-in automation instead of by external automatic theorem provers (ATPs). We implemented this approach in Isabelle’s Sledgehammer and evaluated it. The new ATP-free approach nicely complements the traditional Sledgehammer. The two approaches in combination solve more goals than the traditional ATP-based approach alone.

LeanLTL: A Unifying Framework for Linear Temporal Logics in Lean (Short Paper)

Authors: Eric Vin, Kyle A. Miller, and Daniel J. Fremont

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 352, 16th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2025)

Abstract
We propose LeanLTL, a unifying framework for linear temporal logics in Lean 4. LeanLTL supports reasoning about traces that represent either infinite or finite linear time. The library allows traditional LTL syntax to be combined with arbitrary Lean expressions, making it straightforward to define properties involving numerical or other types. We prove that standard flavors of LTL can be embedded in our framework. The library also provides automation for reasoning about LeanLTL formulas in a way that facilitates using Lean’s existing tactics. Finally, we provide examples illustrating the utility of the library in reasoning about systems that come from applications.

Canonical for Automated Theorem Proving in Lean

Authors: Chase Norman and Jeremy Avigad

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 352, 16th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2025)

Abstract
Canonical is a solver for type inhabitation in dependent type theory, that is, the problem of producing a term of a given type. We present a Lean tactic which invokes Canonical to generate proof terms and synthesize programs. The tactic supports higher-order and dependently-typed goals, structural recursion over indexed inductive types, and definitional equality. Canonical finds proofs for 84% of Natural Number Game problems in 51 seconds total.

Algebra Is Half the Battle: Verifying Presentations of Graded Unipotent Chevalley Groups

Authors: Eric Wang, Arohee Bhoja, Cayden Codel, and Noah G. Singer

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 352, 16th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2025)

Abstract
Graded unipotent Chevalley groups are an important family of groups on matrices with polynomial entries over a finite field. Using the Lean theorem prover, we verify that three such groups, namely, the A₃- and the two B₃-type groups, satisfy a useful group-theoretic condition. Specifically, these groups are defined by a set of equations called Steinberg relations, and we prove that a certain canonical "smaller" set of Steinberg relations suffices to derive the rest. Our work is motivated by an application for building topologically-interesting objects called higher-dimensional expanders (HDXs). In the past decade, HDXs have formed the basis for many new results in theoretical computer science, such as in quantum error correction and in property testing. Yet despite the increasing prevalence of HDXs, only two methods of constructing them are known. One such method builds an HDX from groups that satisfy the aforementioned property, and the Chevalley groups we use are (essentially) the only ones currently known to satisfy it.

An Isabelle/HOL Formalization of Semi-Thue and Conditional Semi-Thue Systems

Authors: Dohan Kim

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 352, 16th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2025)

Abstract
We present a formalized framework for semi-Thue and conditional semi-Thue systems for studying monoids and their word problem using the Isabelle/HOL proof assistant. We provide a formalized decision procedure for the word problem of monoids if they are finitely presented by complete semi-Thue systems. In particular, we present a new formalized method for checking confluence using (conditional) critical pairs for certain conditional semi-Thue systems. We propose and formalize an inference system for generating conditional equational theories and Thue congruences using conditional semi-Thue systems. Then we provide a new formalized decision procedure for the word problem of monoids which have finite complete (reductive) conditional presentations.

Debugging a Smalltalk VM Assisted by Large Automated Reasoning (Extended Abstract)

Authors: Boris Shingarov and Jan Vraný

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 134, Companion Proceedings of the 9th International Conference on the Art, Science, and Engineering of Programming (Programming 2025)

Abstract
We show how a full-scale automated-reasoning engine implemented in Smalltalk can be applied to assist in the programmer’s cognitive task of traversing abstraction levels. This approach follows naturally from our definition of debugging as any activity aimed towards understanding a program. We introduce the notion of "dimensions of abstraction", give two examples ("stratum" and "mode"), and show how it is applied in debugging a native compiler backend.

Cutoff Theorems for the Equivalence of Parameterized Quantum Circuits

Authors: Neil J. Ross and Scott Wesley

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

Abstract
Many promising quantum algorithms in economics, medical science, and material science rely on circuits that are parameterized by a large number of angles. To ensure that these algorithms are efficient, these parameterized circuits must be heavily optimized. However, most quantum circuit optimizers are not verified, so this procedure is known to be error-prone. For this reason, there is growing interest in the design of equivalence checking algorithms for parameterized quantum circuits. In this paper, we define a generalized class of parameterized circuits with arbitrary rotations and show that this problem is decidable for cyclotomic gate sets. We propose a cutoff-based procedure which reduces the problem of verifying the equivalence of parameterized quantum circuits to the problem of verifying the equivalence of finitely many parameter-free quantum circuits. Because the number of parameter-free circuits grows exponentially with the number of parameters, we also propose a probabilistic variant of the algorithm for cases when the number of parameters is intractably large. We show that our techniques extend to equivalence modulo global phase, and describe an efficient angle sampling procedure for cyclotomic gate sets.
