Data-Flow Analyses as Effects and Graded Monads

Authors: Andrej Ivašković, Alan Mycroft, and Dominic Orchard

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 167, 5th International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2020)


Abstract
In static analysis, two frameworks have been studied extensively: monotone data-flow analysis and type-and-effect systems. Whilst both are seen as general analysis frameworks, their relationship has remained unclear. Here we show that monotone data-flow analyses can be encoded as effect systems in a uniform way, via algebras of transfer functions. This helps to answer questions about the most appropriate structure for general effect algebras, especially with regards capturing control-flow precisely. Via the perspective of capturing data-flow analyses, we show the recent suggestion of using effect quantales is not general enough as it excludes non-distributive analyses e.g., constant propagation. By rephrasing the McCarthy transformation, we then model monotone data-flow effects via graded monads. This provides a model of data-flow analyses that can be used to reason about analysis correctness at the semantic level, and to embed data-flow analyses into type systems.

Multiple Random Walks on Paths and Grids

Authors: Andrej Ivaskovic, Adrian Kosowski, Dominik Pajak, and Thomas Sauerwald

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 66, 34th Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2017)


Abstract
We derive several new results on multiple random walks on "low dimensional" graphs. First, inspired by an example of a weighted random walk on a path of three vertices given by Efremenko and Reingold, we prove the following dichotomy: as the path length n tends to infinity, we have a super-linear speed-up w.r.t. the cover time if and only if the number of walks k is equal to 2. An important ingredient of our proofs is the use of a continuous-time analogue of multiple random walks, which might be of independent interest. Finally, we also present the first tight bounds on the speed-up of the cover time for any d-dimensional grid with d >= 2 being an arbitrary constant, and reveal a sharp transition between linear and logarithmic speed-up.
