Fast Free Resolutions of Bifiltered Chain Complexes

Authors: Ulrich Bauer, Tamal K. Dey, Michael Kerber, Florian Russold, and Matthias Söls

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 367, 42nd International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2026)

Abstract
In a k-critical bifiltration, every simplex enters along a staircase with at most k steps. Examples with k > 1 include degree-Rips bifiltrations and models of the multicover bifiltration. We consider the problem of converting a k-critical bifiltration into a 1-critical (i.e. free) chain complex with equivalent homology. This is known as computing a free resolution of the underlying chain complex and is a first step toward post-processing such bifiltrations. We present two algorithms. The first one computes free resolutions corresponding to path graphs and assembles them to a chain complex by computing additional maps. The simple combinatorial structure of path graphs leads to good performance in practice, as demonstrated by extensive experiments. However, its worst-case bound is quadratic in the input size because long paths might yield dense boundary matrices in the output. Our second algorithm replaces the simplex-wise path graphs with ones that maintain short paths which leads to almost linear runtime and output size. We demonstrate that pre-computing a free resolution speeds up the task of computing a minimal presentation of the homology of a k-critical bifiltration in a fixed dimension. Furthermore, our findings show that a chain complex that is minimal in terms of generators can be asymptotically larger than the non-minimal output complex of our second algorithm in terms of description size.

Nondeterministic Asynchronous Dataflow in Isabelle/HOL

Authors: Rafael Castro Gonçalves Silva, Laouen Fernet, and Dmitriy Traytel

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

Abstract
We formalize nondeterministic asynchronous dataflow networks in Isabelle/HOL. Dataflow networks are comprised of operators that are capable of communicating with the network, performing silent computations, and making nondeterministic choices. We represent operators using a shallow embedding as codatatypes. Using this representation, we define standard asynchronous dataflow primitives, including sequential and parallel composition and a feedback operator. These primitives adhere to a number of laws from the literature, which we prove by coinduction using weak bisimilarity as our equality. Albeit coinductive and nondeterministic, our model is executable via code extraction to Haskell.

Formally Verifying a Vertical Cell Decomposition Algorithm

Authors: Yves Bertot and Thomas Portet

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

Abstract
The broad context of this work is the application of formal methods to geometry and robotics. We describe an algorithm to decompose a working area containing obstacles into a collection of safe cells and the formal proof that this algorithm is correct. We expect such an algorithm will be useful to compute safe trajectories. To our knowledge, this is one of the first formalization of such an algorithm to decompose a working space into elementary cells that are suitable for later applications, with the proof of correctness that guarantees that large parts of the working space are safe. Techniques to perform this proof go from algebraic reasoning on coordinates and determinants to sorting. The main difficulty comes from the possible existence of degenerate cases, which are treated in a principled way.

Animating MRBNFs: Truly Modular Binding-Aware Datatypes in Isabelle/HOL

Authors: Jan van Brügge, Andrei Popescu, and Dmitriy Traytel

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

Abstract
Nominal Isabelle provides powerful tools for meta-theoretic reasoning about syntax of logics or programming languages, in which variables are bound. It has been instrumental to major verification successes, such as Gödel’s incompleteness theorems. However, the existing tooling is not compositional. In particular, it does not support nested recursion, linear binding patterns, or infinitely branching syntax. These limitations are fundamental in the way nominal datatypes and functions on them are constructed within Nominal Isabelle. Taking advantage of recent theoretical advancements that overcome these limitations through a modular approach using the concept of map-restricted bounded natural functor (MRBNF), we develop and implement a new definitional package for binding-aware datatypes in Isabelle/HOL, called MrBNF. We describe the journey from the user specification to the end-product types, constants and theorems the tool generates. We validate MrBNF in two formalization case studies that so far were out of reach of nominal approaches: (1) Mazza’s isomorphism between the finitary and the infinitary affine λ-calculus, and (2) the POPLmark 2B challenge, which involves non-free binders for linear pattern matching.

Substructural Parametricity

Authors: C. B. Aberlé, Karl Crary, Chris Martens, and Frank Pfenning

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 337, 10th International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2025)

Abstract
Ordered, linear, and other substructural type systems allow us to expose deep properties of programs at the syntactic level of types. In this paper, we develop a family of unary logical relations that allow us to prove consequences of parametricity for a range of substructural type systems. A key idea is to parameterize the relation by an algebra, which we exemplify with a monoid and commutative monoid to interpret ordered and linear type systems, respectively. We prove the fundamental theorem of logical relations and apply it to deduce extensional properties of inhabitants of certain types. Examples include demonstrating that the ordered types for list append and reversal are inhabited by exactly one function, as are types of some tree traversals. Similarly, the linear type of the identity function on lists is inhabited only by permutations of the input. Our most advanced example shows that the ordered type of the list fold function is inhabited only by the fold function.

Automatic Goal Clone Detection in Rocq

Authors: Ali Ghanbari

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 333, 39th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2025)

Abstract
Proof engineering in Rocq is a labor-intensive process, and as proof developments grow in size, redundancy and maintainability become challenges. One such redundancy is goal cloning, i.e., proving α-equivalent goals multiple times, leading to wasted effort and bloated proof scripts. In this paper, we introduce clone-finder, a novel technique for detecting goal clones in Rocq proofs. By leveraging the formal notion of α-equivalence for Gallina terms, clone-finder systematically identifies duplicated proof goals across large Rocq codebases. We evaluate clone-finder on 40 real-world Rocq projects from the CoqGym dataset. Our results reveal that each project contains an average of 27.73 instances of goal clone. We observed that the clones can be categorized as either exact goal duplication, generalization, or α-equivalent goals with different proofs, each signifying varying levels duplicate effort. Our findings highlight significant untapped potential for proof reuse in Rocq-based formal verification projects, paving the way for future improvements in automated proof engineering.

Contract Usage and Evolution in Android Mobile Applications

Authors: David R. Ferreira, Alexandra Mendes, João F. Ferreira, and Carolina Carreira

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 333, 39th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2025)

Abstract
Contracts and assertions are effective methods to enhance software quality by enforcing preconditions, postconditions, and invariants. Previous research has demonstrated the value of contracts in traditional software development. However, the adoption and impact of contracts in the context of mobile app development, particularly of Android apps, remain unexplored. To address this, we present the first large-scale empirical study on the use of contracts in Android apps, written in Java or Kotlin. We consider contract elements divided into five categories: conditional runtime exceptions, APIs, annotations, assertions, and other. We analyzed 2,390 Android apps from the F-Droid repository and processed 52,977 KLOC to determine 1) how and to what extent contracts are used, 2) which language features are used to denote contracts, 3) how contract usage evolves from the first to the last version, and 4) whether contracts are used safely in the context of program evolution and inheritance. Our findings include: 1) although most apps do not specify contracts, annotation-based approaches are the most popular; 2) apps that use contracts continue to use them in later versions, but the number of methods increases at a higher rate than the number of contracts; and 3) there are potentially unsafe specification changes when apps evolve and in subtyping relationships, which indicates a lack of specification stability. Finally, we present a qualitative study that gathers challenges faced by practitioners when using contracts and that validates our recommendations.

FAIR Jupyter: A Knowledge Graph Approach to Semantic Sharing and Granular Exploration of a Computational Notebook Reproducibility Dataset

Authors: Sheeba Samuel and Daniel Mietchen

Published in: TGDK, Volume 2, Issue 2 (2024): Special Issue on Resources for Graph Data and Knowledge. Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 2, Issue 2

Abstract
The way in which data are shared can affect their utility and reusability. Here, we demonstrate how data that we had previously shared in bulk can be mobilized further through a knowledge graph that allows for much more granular exploration and interrogation. The original dataset is about the computational reproducibility of GitHub-hosted Jupyter notebooks associated with biomedical publications. It contains rich metadata about the publications, associated GitHub repositories and Jupyter notebooks, and the notebooks' reproducibility. We took this dataset, converted it into semantic triples and loaded these into a triple store to create a knowledge graph - FAIR Jupyter - that we made accessible via a web service. This enables granular data exploration and analysis through queries that can be tailored to specific use cases. Such queries may provide details about any of the variables from the original dataset, highlight relationships between them or combine some of the graph’s content with materials from corresponding external resources. We provide a collection of example queries addressing a range of use cases in research and education. We also outline how sets of such queries can be used to profile specific content types, either individually or by class. We conclude by discussing how such a semantically enhanced sharing of complex datasets can both enhance their FAIRness - i.e., their findability, accessibility, interoperability, and reusability - and help identify and communicate best practices, particularly with regards to data quality, standardization, automation and reproducibility.

Knowledge Graph Embeddings: Open Challenges and Opportunities

Abstract
While Knowledge Graphs (KGs) have long been used as valuable sources of structured knowledge, in recent years, KG embeddings have become a popular way of deriving numeric vector representations from them, for instance, to support knowledge graph completion and similarity search. This study surveys advances as well as open challenges and opportunities in this area. For instance, the most prominent embedding models focus primarily on structural information. However, there has been notable progress in incorporating further aspects, such as semantics, multi-modal, temporal, and multilingual features. Most embedding techniques are assessed using human-curated benchmark datasets for the task of link prediction, neglecting other important real-world KG applications. Many approaches assume a static knowledge graph and are unable to account for dynamic changes. Additionally, KG embeddings may encode data biases and lack interpretability. Overall, this study provides an overview of promising research avenues to learn improved KG embeddings that can address a more diverse range of use cases.

Machine Learning and Knowledge Graphs: Existing Gaps and Future Research Challenges

Authors: Claudia d'Amato, Louis Mahon, Pierre Monnin, and Giorgos Stamou

Published in: TGDK, Volume 1, Issue 1 (2023): Special Issue on Trends in Graph Data and Knowledge. Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 1, Issue 1

Abstract
The graph model is nowadays largely adopted to model a wide range of knowledge and data, spanning from social networks to knowledge graphs (KGs), representing a successful paradigm of how symbolic and transparent AI can scale on the World Wide Web. However, due to their unprecedented volume, they are generally tackled by Machine Learning (ML) and mostly numeric based methods such as graph embedding models (KGE) and deep neural networks (DNNs). The latter methods have been proved lately very efficient, leading the current AI spring. In this vision paper, we introduce some of the main existing methods for combining KGs and ML, divided into two categories: those using ML to improve KGs, and those using KGs to improve results on ML tasks. From this introduction, we highlight research gaps and perspectives that we deem promising and currently under-explored for the involved research communities, spanning from KG support for LLM prompting, integration of KG semantics in ML models to symbol-based methods, interpretability of ML models, and the need for improved benchmark datasets. In our opinion, such perspectives are stepping stones in an ultimate view of KGs as central assets for neuro-symbolic and explainable AI.

Large-scale stream processing systems often follow the dataflow paradigm, which enforces a program structure that exposes a high degree of parallelism. The Timely Dataflow distributed system supports expressive cyclic dataflows for which it offers low-latency data- and pipeline-parallel stream processing. To achieve high expressiveness and performance, Timely Dataflow uses an intricate distributed protocol for tracking the computation’s progress. We modeled the progress tracking protocol as a combination of two independent transition systems in the Isabelle/HOL proof assistant. We specified and verified the safety of the two components and of the combined protocol. To this end, we identified abstract assumptions on dataflow programs that are sufficient for safety and were not previously formalized.

Generic Authenticated Data Structures, Formally

Authors: Matthias Brun and Dmitriy Traytel

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 141, 10th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2019)

Abstract
Authenticated data structures are a technique for outsourcing data storage and maintenance to an untrusted server. The server is required to produce an efficiently checkable and cryptographically secure proof that it carried out precisely the requested computation. Recently, Miller et al. [https://doi.org/10.1145/2535838.2535851] demonstrated how to support a wide range of such data structures by integrating an authentication construct as a first class citizen in a functional programming language. In this paper, we put this work to the test of formalization in the Isabelle proof assistant. With Isabelle’s help, we uncover and repair several mistakes and modify the small-step semantics to perform call-by-value evaluation rather than requiring terms to be in administrative normal form.

Abstract
Software's ability to adapt at run-time to changing user needs, system intrusions or faults, changing operational environment, and resource variability has been proposed as a means to cope with the complexity of today's software-intensive systems. Such self-adaptive systems can configure and reconfigure themselves, augment their functionality, continually optimize themselves, protect themselves, and recover themselves, while keeping most of their complexity hidden from the user and administrator. In this paper, we present research road map for software engineering of self-adaptive systems focusing on four views, which we identify as essential: requirements, modelling, engineering, and assurances.
