Strategy Extraction by Interpolation

Authors: Friedrich Slivovsky

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 305, 27th International Conference on Theory and Applications of Satisfiability Testing (SAT 2024)

Abstract
In applications, QBF solvers are often required to generate strategies. This typically involves a process known as strategy extraction, where a Boolean circuit encoding a strategy is computed from a proof. It has previously been observed that Craig interpolation in propositional logic can be seen as a special case of QBF strategy extraction. In this paper we explore this connection further and show that, conversely, any strategy for a false QBF corresponds to a sequence of interpolants in its complete (Herbrand) expansion. Inspired by this correspondence, we present a new strategy extraction algorithm for the expansion-based proof system Exp+Res. Its asymptotic running time matches the best known bound of O(mn) for a proof with m lines and n universally quantified variables. We report on experiments comparing this algorithm with a strategy extraction algorithm based on combining partial strategies, as well as with round-based strategy extraction.

eSLIM: Circuit Minimization with SAT Based Local Improvement

Authors: Franz-Xaver Reichl, Friedrich Slivovsky, and Stefan Szeider

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 305, 27th International Conference on Theory and Applications of Satisfiability Testing (SAT 2024)

Abstract
eSLIM is a tool for circuit minimization that utilizes Exact Synthesis and the SAT-based local improvement method (SLIM) to locally improve circuits. eSLIM improves upon the earlier prototype CIOPS that uses Quantified Boolean Formulas (QBF) to succinctly encode resynthesis of multi-output subcircuits subject to don't cares. This paper describes two improvements. First, it presents a purely propositional encoding based on a Boolean relation characterizing the input-output behavior of the subcircuit under don't cares. This allows the use of a SAT solver for resynthesis, substantially reducing running times when applied to functions from the IWLS 2023 competition, where eSLIM placed second. Second, it proposes circuit partitioning techniques in which don't cares for a subcircuit are captured only with respect to an enclosing window, rather than the entire circuit. Circuit partitioning trades completeness for efficiency, and successfully enables the application of exact synthesis to some of the largest circuits in the EPFL suite, leading to improvements over the current best implementation for several instances.

Algorithms Transcending the SAT-Symmetry Interface

Authors: Markus Anders, Pascal Schweitzer, and Mate Soos

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 271, 26th International Conference on Theory and Applications of Satisfiability Testing (SAT 2023)

Abstract
Dedicated treatment of symmetries in satisfiability problems (SAT) is indispensable for solving various classes of instances arising in practice. However, the exploitation of symmetries usually takes a black box approach. Typically, off-the-shelf external, general-purpose symmetry detection tools are invoked to compute symmetry groups of a formula. The groups thus generated are a set of permutations passed to a separate tool to perform further analyzes to understand the structure of the groups. The result of this second computation is in turn used for tasks such as static symmetry breaking or dynamic pruning of the search space. Within this pipeline of tools, the detection and analysis of symmetries typically incurs the majority of the time overhead for symmetry exploitation. In this paper we advocate for a more holistic view of what we call the SAT-symmetry interface. We formulate a computational setting, centered around a new concept of joint graph/group pairs, to analyze and improve the detection and analysis of symmetries. Using our methods, no information is lost performing computational tasks lying on the SAT-symmetry interface. Having access to the entire input allows for simpler, yet efficient algorithms. Specifically, we devise algorithms and heuristics for computing finest direct disjoint decompositions, finding equivalent orbits, and finding natural symmetric group actions. Our algorithms run in what we call instance-quasi-linear time, i.e., almost linear time in terms of the input size of the original formula and the description length of the symmetry group returned by symmetry detection tools. Our algorithms improve over both heuristics used in state-of-the-art symmetry exploitation tools, as well as theoretical general-purpose algorithms.

Proof Complexity of Propositional Model Counting

Authors: Olaf Beyersdorff, Tim Hoffmann, and Luc Nicolas Spachmann

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 271, 26th International Conference on Theory and Applications of Satisfiability Testing (SAT 2023)

Abstract
Recently, the proof system MICE for the model counting problem #SAT was introduced by Fichte, Hecher and Roland (SAT'22). As demonstrated by Fichte et al., the system MICE can be used for proof logging for state-of-the-art #SAT solvers. We perform a proof-complexity study of MICE. For this we first simplify the rules of MICE and obtain a calculus MICE' that is polynomially equivalent to MICE. Our main result establishes an exponential lower bound for the number of proof steps in MICE' (and hence also in MICE) for a specific family of CNFs.

CadiBack: Extracting Backbones with CaDiCaL

Authors: Armin Biere, Nils Froleyks, and Wenxi Wang

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 271, 26th International Conference on Theory and Applications of Satisfiability Testing (SAT 2023)

Abstract
The backbone of a satisfiable formula is the set of literals that are true in all its satisfying assignments. Backbone computation can improve a wide range of SAT-based applications, such as verification, fault localization and product configuration. In this tool paper, we introduce a new backbone extraction tool called CadiBack. It takes advantage of unique features available in our state-of-the-art SAT solver CaDiCaL including transparent inprocessing and single clause assumptions, which have not been evaluated in this context before. In addition, CaDiCaL is enhanced with an improved algorithm to support model rotation by utilizing watched literal data structures. In our comprehensive experiments with a large number of benchmarks, CadiBack solves 60% more instances than the state-of-the-art backbone extraction tool MiniBones. Our tool is thoroughly tested with fuzzing, internal correctness checking and cross-checking on a large benchmark set. It is publicly available as open source, well documented and easy to extend.

QCDCL vs QBF Resolution: Further Insights

Authors: Benjamin Böhm and Olaf Beyersdorff

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 271, 26th International Conference on Theory and Applications of Satisfiability Testing (SAT 2023)

Abstract
We continue the investigation on the relations of QCDCL and QBF resolution systems. In particular, we introduce QCDCL versions that tightly characterise QU-Resolution and (a slight variant of) long-distance Q-Resolution. We show that most QCDCL variants - parameterised by different policies for decisions, unit propagations and reductions - lead to incomparable systems for almost all choices of these policies.

Polynomial Calculus for MaxSAT

Authors: Ilario Bonacina, Maria Luisa Bonet, and Jordi Levy

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 271, 26th International Conference on Theory and Applications of Satisfiability Testing (SAT 2023)

Abstract
MaxSAT is the problem of finding an assignment satisfying the maximum number of clauses in a CNF formula. We consider a natural generalization of this problem to generic sets of polynomials and propose a weighted version of Polynomial Calculus to address this problem. Weighted Polynomial Calculus is a natural generalization of MaxSAT-Resolution and weighted Resolution that manipulates polynomials with coefficients in a finite field and either weights in ℕ or ℤ. We show the soundness and completeness of these systems via an algorithmic procedure. Weighted Polynomial Calculus, with weights in ℕ and coefficients in 𝔽₂, is able to prove efficiently that Tseitin formulas on a connected graph are minimally unsatisfiable. Using weights in ℤ, it also proves efficiently that the Pigeonhole Principle is minimally unsatisfiable.

Certified Knowledge Compilation with Application to Verified Model Counting

Authors: Randal E. Bryant, Wojciech Nawrocki, Jeremy Avigad, and Marijn J. H. Heule

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 271, 26th International Conference on Theory and Applications of Satisfiability Testing (SAT 2023)

Abstract
Computing many useful properties of Boolean formulas, such as their weighted or unweighted model count, is intractable on general representations. It can become tractable when formulas are expressed in a special form, such as the decision-decomposable, negation normal form (dec-DNNF) . Knowledge compilation is the process of converting a formula into such a form. Unfortunately existing knowledge compilers provide no guarantee that their output correctly represents the original formula, and therefore they cannot validate a model count, or any other computed value. We present Partitioned-Operation Graphs (POGs), a form that can encode all of the representations used by existing knowledge compilers. We have designed CPOG, a framework that can express proofs of equivalence between a POG and a Boolean formula in conjunctive normal form (CNF). We have developed a program that generates POG representations from dec-DNNF graphs produced by the state-of-the-art knowledge compiler D4, as well as checkable CPOG proofs certifying that the output POGs are equivalent to the input CNF formulas. Our toolchain for generating and verifying POGs scales to all but the largest graphs produced by D4 for formulas from a recent model counting competition. Additionally, we have developed a formally verified CPOG checker and model counter for POGs in the Lean 4 proof assistant. In doing so, we proved the soundness of our proof framework. These programs comprise the first formally verified toolchain for weighted and unweighted model counting.

Separating Incremental and Non-Incremental Bottom-Up Compilation

Authors: Alexis de Colnet

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 271, 26th International Conference on Theory and Applications of Satisfiability Testing (SAT 2023)

Abstract
The aim of a compiler is, given a function represented in some language, to generate an equivalent representation in a target language L. In bottom-up (BU) compilation of functions given as CNF formulas, constructing the new representation requires compiling several subformulas in L. The compiler starts by compiling the clauses in L and iteratively constructs representations for new subformulas using an "Apply" operator that performs conjunction in L, until all clauses are combined into one representation. In principle, BU compilation can generate representations for any subformulas and conjoin them in any way. But an attractive strategy from a practical point of view is to augment one main representation - which we call the core - by conjoining to it the clauses one at a time. We refer to this strategy as incremental BU compilation. We prove that, for known relevant languages L for BU compilation, there is a class of CNF formulas that admit BU compilations to L that generate only polynomial-size intermediate representations, while their incremental BU compilations all generate an exponential-size core.

IPASIR-UP: User Propagators for CDCL

Authors: Katalin Fazekas, Aina Niemetz, Mathias Preiner, Markus Kirchweger, Stefan Szeider, and Armin Biere

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 271, 26th International Conference on Theory and Applications of Satisfiability Testing (SAT 2023)

Abstract
Modern SAT solvers are frequently embedded as sub-reasoning engines into more complex tools for addressing problems beyond the Boolean satisfiability problem. Examples include solvers for Satisfiability Modulo Theories (SMT), combinatorial optimization, model enumeration and counting. In such use cases, the SAT solver is often able to provide relevant information beyond the satisfiability answer. Further, domain knowledge of the embedding system (e.g., symmetry properties or theory axioms) can be beneficial for the CDCL search, but cannot be efficiently represented in clausal form. In this paper, we propose a general interface to inspect and influence the internal behaviour of CDCL SAT solvers. Our goal is to capture the most essential functionalities that are sufficient to simplify and improve use cases that require a more fine-grained interaction with the SAT solver than provided via the standard IPASIR interface. For our experiments, we extend CaDiCaL with our interface and evaluate it on two representative use cases: enumerating graphs within the SAT modulo Symmetries framework (SMS), and as the main CDCL(T) SAT engine of the SMT solver cvc5.

AllSAT for Combinational Circuits

Authors: Dror Fried, Alexander Nadel, and Yogev Shalmon

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 271, 26th International Conference on Theory and Applications of Satisfiability Testing (SAT 2023)

Abstract
Motivated by the need to improve the scalability of Intel’s in-house Static Timing Analysis (STA) tool, we consider the problem of enumerating all the solutions of a single-output combinational Boolean circuit, called AllSAT-CT. While AllSAT-CT is immediately reducible to enumerating the solutions of a Boolean formula in Conjunctive Normal Form (AllSAT-CNF), our experiments had shown that such a reduction, followed by applying state-of-the-art AllSAT-CNF tools, does not scale well on neither our industrial AllSAT-CT instances nor generic circuits, both when the user requires the solutions to be disjoint or when they can be non-disjoint. We focused on understanding the reasons for this phenomenon for the well-known iterative blocking family of AllSAT-CNF algorithms. We realized that existing blocking AllSAT-CNF algorithms fail to generalize efficiently for AllSAT-CT, since they are restricted to Boolean logic. Consequently, we introduce three dedicated AllSAT-CT algorithms that are ternary-logic-aware: a ternary simulation-based algorithm TALE, a dual-rail&MaxSAT-based algorithm MARS, and their combination. Specifically, we introduce in MARS two novel blocking clause generation approaches for the disjoint and non-disjoint cases. We implemented our algorithms in our new tool HALL. We show that HALL scales substantially better than any reduction to existing AllSAT-CNF tools on our industrial STA instances as well as on publicly available families of combinational circuits for both the disjoint and the non-disjoint cases.
