Defining Corecursive Functions in Coq Using Approximations

Authors: Vlad Rusu and David Nowak

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 222, 36th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2022)

Abstract
We present two methods for defining corecursive functions that go beyond what is accepted by the builtin corecursion mechanisms of the Coq proof assistant. This gain in expressiveness is obtained by using a combination of axioms from Coq’s standard library that, to our best knowledge, do not introduce inconsistencies but enable reasoning in standard mathematics. Both methods view corecursive functions as limits of sequences of approximations, and both are based on a property of productiveness that, intuitively, requires that for each input, an arbitrarily close approximation of the corresponding output is eventually obtained. The first method uses Coq’s builtin corecursive mechanisms in a non-standard way, while the second method uses none of the mechanisms but redefines them. Both methods are implemented in Coq and are illustrated with examples.

Extending Equational Monadic Reasoning with Monad Transformers

Authors: Reynald Affeldt and David Nowak

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 188, 26th International Conference on Types for Proofs and Programs (TYPES 2020)

Abstract
There is a recent interest for the verification of monadic programs using proof assistants. This line of research raises the question of the integration of monad transformers, a standard technique to combine monads. In this paper, we extend Monae, a Coq library for monadic equational reasoning, with monad transformers and we explain the benefits of this extension. Our starting point is the existing theory of modular monad transformers, which provides a uniform treatment of operations. Using this theory, we simplify the formalization of models in Monae and we propose an approach to support monadic equational reasoning in the presence of monad transformers. We also use Monae to revisit the lifting theorems of modular monad transformers by providing equational proofs and explaining how to patch a known bug using a non-standard use of Coq that combines impredicative polymorphism and parametricity.
