The Directed Van Kampen Theorem in Lean

Authors: Henning Basold, Peter Bruin, and Dominique Lawson

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 309, 15th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2024)


Abstract
Directed topology augments the concept of a topological space with a notion of directed paths. This leads to a category of directed spaces, in which the morphisms are continuous maps respecting directed paths. Directed topology thereby enables an accurate representation of computation paths in concurrent systems that usually cannot be reversed. Even though ideas from algebraic topology have analogues in directed topology, the directedness drastically changes how spaces can be characterised. For instance, while an important homotopy invariant of a topological space is its fundamental groupoid, for directed spaces this has to be replaced by the fundamental category because directed paths are not necessarily reversible. In this paper, we present a Lean 4 formalisation of directed spaces and of a Van Kampen theorem for them, which allows the fundamental category of a directed space to be computed in terms of the fundamental categories of subspaces. Part of this formalisation is also a significant theory of directed spaces, directed homotopy theory and path coverings, which can serve as basis for future formalisations of directed topology. The formalisation in Lean can also be used in computer-assisted reasoning about the behaviour of concurrent systems that have been represented as directed spaces.

Formal Verification of the Empty Hexagon Number

Authors: Bernardo Subercaseaux, Wojciech Nawrocki, James Gallicchio, Cayden Codel, Mario Carneiro, and Marijn J. H. Heule

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 309, 15th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2024)


Abstract
A recent breakthrough in computer-assisted mathematics showed that every set of 30 points in the plane in general position (i.e., no three points on a common line) contains an empty convex hexagon. Heule and Scheucher solved this problem with a combination of geometric insights and automated reasoning techniques by constructing CNF formulas ϕ_n, with O(n⁴) clauses, such that if ϕ_n is unsatisfiable then every set of n points in general position must contain an empty convex hexagon. An unsatisfiability proof for n = 30 was then found with a SAT solver using 17 300 CPU hours of parallel computation. In this paper, we formalize and verify this result in the Lean theorem prover. Our formalization covers ideas in discrete computational geometry and SAT encoding techniques by introducing a framework that connects geometric objects to propositional assignments. We see this as a key step towards the formal verification of other SAT-based results in geometry, since the abstractions we use have been successfully applied to similar problems. Overall, we hope that our work sets a new standard for the verification of geometry problems relying on extensive computation, and that it increases the trust the mathematical community places in computer-assisted proofs.

Hydra Battles and AC Termination

Authors: Nao Hirokawa and Aart Middeldorp

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 260, 8th International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2023)


Abstract
We present a new encoding of the Battle of Hercules and Hydra as a rewrite system with AC symbols. Unlike earlier term rewriting encodings, it faithfully models any strategy of Hercules to beat Hydra. To prove the termination of our encoding, we employ type introduction in connection with many-sorted semantic labeling for AC rewriting and AC-RPO.

Polynomial Termination Over ℕ Is Undecidable

Authors: Fabian Mitterwallner and Aart Middeldorp

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 228, 7th International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2022)


Abstract
In this paper we prove via a reduction from Hilbert’s 10th problem that the problem whether the termination of a given rewrite system can be shown by a polynomial interpretation in the natural numbers is undecidable, even for rewrite systems that are incrementally polynomially terminating. We also prove that incremental polynomial termination is an undecidable property of terminating rewrite systems.

Completion for Logically Constrained Rewriting

Authors: Sarah Winkler and Aart Middeldorp

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 108, 3rd International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2018)


Abstract
We propose an abstract completion procedure for logically constrained term rewrite systems (LCTRSs). This procedure can be instantiated to both standard Knuth-Bendix completion and ordered completion for LCTRSs, and we present a succinct and uniform correctness proof. A prototype implementation illustrates the viability of the new completion approach.

ProTeM: A Proof Term Manipulator (System Description)

Authors: Christina Kohl and Aart Middeldorp

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 108, 3rd International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2018)


Abstract
Proof terms are a useful concept for reasoning about computations in term rewriting. Human calculation with proof terms is tedious and error-prone. We present ProTeM, a new tool that offers support for manipulating proof terms that represent multisteps in left-linear rewrite systems.

Infinite Runs in Abstract Completion

Authors: Nao Hirokawa, Aart Middeldorp, Christian Sternagel, and Sarah Winkler

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 84, 2nd International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2017)


Abstract
Completion is one of the first and most studied techniques in term rewriting and fundamental to automated reasoning with equalities. In an earlier paper we presented a new and formalized correctness proof of abstract completion for finite runs. In this paper we extend our analysis and our formalization to infinite runs, resulting in a new proof that fair infinite runs produce complete presentations of the initial equations. We further consider ordered completion - an important extension of completion that aims to produce ground-complete presentations of the initial equations. Moreover, we revisit and extend results of Métivier concerning canonicity of rewrite systems. All proofs presented in the paper have been formalized in Isabelle/HOL.

Automating the First-Order Theory of Rewriting for Left-Linear Right-Ground Rewrite Systems

Authors: Franziska Rapp and Aart Middeldorp

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 52, 1st International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2016)


Abstract
The first-order theory of rewriting is decidable for finite left-linear right-ground rewrite systems. We present a new tool that implements the decision procedure for this theory. It is based on tree automata techniques. The tool offers the possibility to synthesize rewrite systems that satisfy properties that are expressible in the first-order theory of rewriting.

Leftmost Outermost Revisited

Authors: Nao Hirokawa, Aart Middeldorp, and Georg Moser

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 36, 26th International Conference on Rewriting Techniques and Applications (RTA 2015)


Abstract
We present an elementary proof of the classical result that the leftmost outermost strategy is normalizing for left-normal orthogonal rewrite systems. Our proof is local and extends to hyper-normalization and weakly orthogonal systems. Based on the new proof, we study basic normalization, i.e., we study normalization if the set of considered starting terms is restricted to basic terms. This allows us to weaken the left-normality restriction. We show that the leftmost outermost strategy is hyper-normalizing for basically left-normal orthogonal rewrite systems. This shift of focus greatly extends the applicability of the classical result, as evidenced by the experimental data provided.

Conditional Complexity

Authors: Cynthia Kop, Aart Middeldorp, and Thomas Sternagel

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 36, 26th International Conference on Rewriting Techniques and Applications (RTA 2015)


Abstract
We propose a notion of complexity for oriented conditional term rewrite systems. This notion is realistic in the sense that it measures not only successful computations but also partial computations that result in a failed rule application. A transformation to unconditional context-sensitive rewrite systems is presented which reflects this complexity notion, as well as a technique to derive runtime and derivational complexity bounds for the latter.

Improving Automatic Confluence Analysis of Rewrite Systems by Redundant Rules

Authors: Julian Nagele, Bertram Felgenhauer, and Aart Middeldorp

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 36, 26th International Conference on Rewriting Techniques and Applications (RTA 2015)


Abstract
We describe how to utilize redundant rewrite rules, i.e., rules that can be simulated by other rules, when (dis)proving confluence of term rewrite systems. We demonstrate how automatic confluence provers benefit from the addition as well as the removal of redundant rules. Due to their simplicity, our transformations were easy to formalize in a proof assistant and are thus amenable to certification. Experimental results show the surprising gain in power.

Normalized Completion Revisited

Authors: Sarah Winkler and Aart Middeldorp

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 21, 24th International Conference on Rewriting Techniques and Applications (RTA 2013)


Abstract
Normalized completion (Marché 1996) is a widely applicable and efficient technique for com- pletion modulo theories. If successful, a normalized completion procedure computes a rewrite system that allows to decide the validity problem using normalized rewriting. In this paper we consider a slightly simplified inference system for finite normalized completion runs. We prove correctness, show faithfulness of critical pair criteria in our setting, and propose a different notion of normalizing pairs. We then show how normalized completion procedures can benefit from AC- termination tools instead of relying on a fixed AC-compatible reduction order. We outline our implementation of this approach in the completion tool mkbtt and present experimental results, including new completions.

Beyond Peano Arithmetic – Automatically Proving Termination of the Goodstein Sequence

Authors: Sarah Winkler, Harald Zankl, and Aart Middeldorp

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 21, 24th International Conference on Rewriting Techniques and Applications (RTA 2013)


Abstract
Kirby and Paris (1982) proved in a celebrated paper that a theorem of Goodstein (1944) cannot be established in Peano (1889) arithmetic. We present an encoding of Goodstein's theorem as a termination problem of a finite rewrite system. Using a novel implementation of ordinal interpretations, we are able to automatically prove termination of this system, resulting in the first automatic termination proof for a system whose derivational complexity is not multiple recursive. Our method can also cope with the encoding by Touzet (1998) of the battle of Hercules and Hydra, yet another system which has been out of reach for automated tools, until now.
