Quantum Circuit Verification - A Potential Roadmap (Invited Talk)

Authors: Parosh Aziz Abdulla, Yu-Fang Chen, Michal Hečko, Lukáš Holík, Ondřej Lengál, Jyun-Ao Lin, and Ramanathan Thinniyam Srinivasan

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 360, 45th IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS 2025)

Abstract
Quantum technologies are progressing at an extraordinary pace and are poised to transform numerous sectors both nationally and globally. Among them, quantum computing stands out for its potential to revolutionize areas such as cryptography, optimization, and the simulation of quantum systems, offering dramatic speed-ups for specific classes of problems. As quantum devices evolve and become increasingly pervasive, guaranteeing their correctness is of paramount importance. This necessitates the development of rigorous methods and tools to analyze and verify their behavior. However, the construction of such verification frameworks presents fundamental challenges. Quantum phenomena such as superposition and entanglement give rise to computational behaviors that differ profoundly from those of classical systems, leading to inherently probabilistic models and exponentially large state spaces, even for relatively small programs. Addressing these challenges requires building on the extensive expertise of the formal methods community in classical program verification, while incorporating recent advances and collaborative efforts in quantum systems. An interesting challenge for the verification community is to design and implement novel verification frameworks that transfer the key strengths of classical verification, such as expressive specification, precise error detection, automation, and scalability, to the quantum domain. We expect that the results of this research will play a crucial role in enabling the dependable deployment of quantum technologies across a wide range of future applications.

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.

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.
