Hypernode Automata

Authors: Ezio Bartocci, Thomas A. Henzinger, Dejan Nickovic, and Ana Oliveira da Costa

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 279, 34th International Conference on Concurrency Theory (CONCUR 2023)


Abstract
We introduce hypernode automata as a new specification formalism for hyperproperties of concurrent systems. They are finite automata with nodes labeled with hypernode logic formulas and transitions labeled with actions. A hypernode logic formula specifies relations between sequences of variable values in different system executions. Unlike HyperLTL, hypernode logic takes an asynchronous view on execution traces by constraining the values and the order of value changes of each variable without correlating the timing of the changes. Different execution traces are synchronized solely through the transitions of hypernode automata. Hypernode automata naturally combine asynchronicity at the node level with synchronicity at the transition level. We show that the model-checking problem for hypernode automata is decidable over action-labeled Kripke structures, whose actions induce transitions of the specification automata. For this reason, hypernode automaton is a suitable formalism for specifying and verifying asynchronous hyperproperties, such as declassifying observational determinism in multi-threaded programs.

Algebraic Reasoning for (Un)Solvable Loops (Invited Talk)

Authors: Laura Kovács

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 272, 48th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2023)


Abstract
Loop invariants describe valid program properties that hold before and after every loop iteration. As such, loop invariants are the workhorses in formalizing loop semantics and automating the formal analysis and verification of programs with loops. While automatically synthesizing loop invariants is, in general, an uncomputable problem, when considering only single-path loops with linear updates (linear loops), the strongest polynomial invariant is in fact computable [Michael Karr, 1976; Markus Müller-Olm and Helmut Seidl, 2004; Laura Kovács, 2008; Ehud Hrushovski et al., 2018]. Yet, already for loops with "only" polynomial updates, computing the strongest invariant has been an open challenge since 2004 [Markus Müller-Olm and Helmut Seidl, 2004]. In this invited talk, we first present computability results on polynomial invariant synthesis for restricted polynomial loops, called solvable loops [Rodríguez-Carbonell and Kapur, 2004]. Key to solvable loops is that one can automatically compute invariants from closed-form solutions of algebraic recurrence equations that model the loop behaviour [Laura Kovács, 2008; Andreas Humenberger et al., 2017]. We also establish a technique for invariant synthesis for classes of loops that are not solvable, termed unsolvable loops [Daneshvar Amrollahi et al., 2022]. We next study the limits of computability in deriving the (strongest) polynomial invariants for arbitrary polynomial loops. We prove that computing the strongest polynomial invariant of arbitrary, single-path polynomial loops is very hard [Julian Müllner, 2023] - namely, it is at least as hard as the Skolem problem [Graham Everest et al., 2003; Terrence Tao, 2008], a prominent algebraic problem in the theory of linear recurrences. Going beyond single-path loops, we show that the strongest polynomial invariant is uncomputable already for multi-path polynomial loops with arbitrary quadratic polynomial updates [Laura Kovács and Anton Varonka, 2023].
