New and Formalized Proofs for Right-Forward Closures and Core Matrix Interpretations

Authors: René Thiemann, Dieter Hofbauer, Ulysse Le Huitouze, and Johannes Waldmann

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 378, 11th International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2026)

Abstract
We provide new proofs of two important theorems for proving termination of term rewrite systems (TRSs), including a full formalization in Isabelle/HOL. We first consider Dershowitz' theorem that termination starting from arbitrary terms is equivalent to termination starting from terms in the right-forward closures of right-hand sides, provided that the TRS is right-linear or orthogonal. Our new proof deviates from the original one in that no reorderings of steps in infinite derivations are required, making it more precise in its argumentation. It also subsumes a later result that one can weaken orthogonality to locally confluent overlay TRSs. The second theorem is about matrix interpretations. These were introduced by Hofbauer and Waldmann for proving termination of string rewrite systems (SRSs), internally using the concept of a core. Subsequently, Endrullis, Waldmann and Zantema developed matrix interpretations for TRSs without using the idea of a core. Whereas matrix interpretations for TRSs have already been formalized several times, so far this was not the case for core SRS matrix interpretations. We not only provide such a formalization, but also extend core SRS matrix interpretations to TRSs. These new core matrix interpretations for TRSs generalize previous approaches.

A Formal Proof of Complexity Bounds on Diophantine Equations

Authors: Jonas Bayer and Marco David

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

Abstract
We present a universal construction of Diophantine equations with bounded complexity in Isabelle/HOL. This is a formalization of our own work in number theory [Jonas Bayer et al., 2025]. Hilbert’s Tenth Problem was answered negatively by Yuri Matiyasevich, who showed that there is no general algorithm to decide whether an arbitrary Diophantine equation has a solution. However, the problem remains open when generalized to the field of rational numbers, or contrarily, when restricted to Diophantine equations with bounded complexity, characterized by the number of variables ν and the degree δ. If every Diophantine set can be represented within the bounds (ν, δ), we say that this pair is universal, and it follows that the corresponding class of equations is undecidable. In a separate mathematics article, we have determined the first non-trivial universal pair for the case of integer unknowns. In this paper, we contribute a formal verification of this new result. In doing so, we markedly extend the Isabelle AFP entry on multivariate polynomials [Christian Sternagel et al., 2010], formalize parts of a number theory textbook [Melvyn B. Nathanson, 1996], and develop classical theory on Diophantine equations [Yuri Matiyasevich and Julia Robinson, 1975] in Isabelle. In addition, our work includes metaprogramming infrastructure designed to efficiently handle complex definitions of multivariate polynomials. Our mathematical draft has been formalized while the mathematical research was ongoing, and benefited largely from the help of the theorem prover. We reflect on how the close collaboration between mathematician and computer is an uncommon but promising modus operandi.

A Formalization of Divided Powers in Lean

Authors: Antoine Chambert-Loir and María Inés de Frutos-Fernández

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

Abstract
Given an ideal I in a commutative ring A, a divided power structure on I is a collection of maps {γ_n : I → A}_{n ∈ ℕ}, subject to axioms that imply that it behaves like the family {x ↦ xⁿ/n!}_{n ∈ ℕ}, but which can be defined even when division by factorials is not possible in A. Divided power structures have important applications in diverse areas of mathematics, including algebraic topology, number theory and algebraic geometry. In this article we describe a formalization in Lean 4 of the basic theory of divided power structures, including divided power morphisms and sub-divided power ideals, and we provide several fundamental constructions, in particular quotients and sums. This constitutes the first formalization of this theory in any theorem prover. As a prerequisite of general interest, we expand the formalized theory of multivariate power series rings, endowing them with a topology and defining evaluation and substitution of power series.

A Certified Proof Checker for Deep Neural Network Verification in Imandra

Authors: Remi Desmartin, Omri Isac, Grant Passmore, Ekaterina Komendantskaya, Kathrin Stark, and Guy Katz

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

Abstract
Recent advances in the verification of deep neural networks (DNNs) have opened the way for a broader usage of DNN verification technology in many application areas, including safety-critical ones. However, DNN verifiers are themselves complex programs that have been shown to be susceptible to errors and numerical imprecision; this, in turn, has raised the question of trust in DNN verifiers. One prominent attempt to address this issue is enhancing DNN verifiers with the capability of producing certificates of their results that are subject to independent algorithmic checking. While formulations of Marabou certificate checking already exist on top of the state-of-the-art DNN verifier Marabou, they are implemented in C++, and that code itself raises the question of trust (e.g., in the precision of floating point calculations or guarantees for implementation soundness). Here, we present an alternative implementation of the Marabou certificate checking in Imandra - an industrial functional programming language and an interactive theorem prover (ITP) - that allows us to obtain full proof of certificate correctness. The significance of the result is two-fold. Firstly, it gives stronger independent guarantees for Marabou proofs. Secondly, it opens the way for the wider adoption of DNN verifiers in interactive theorem proving in the same way as many ITPs already incorporate SMT solvers.

Verifying Datalog Reasoning with Lean

Authors: Johannes Tantow, Lukas Gerlach, Stephan Mennicke, and Markus Krötzsch

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

Abstract
Datalog is an essential logical rule language with many applications, and modern rule engines compute logical consequences for Datalog with high performance and scalability. While Datalog is rather simple and, in principle, explainable by design, such sophisticated implementations and optimizations are hard to verify. We therefore propose a certificate-based approach to validate results of Datalog reasoners in a formally verified checker for Datalog proofs. Using the proof assistant Lean, we implement such a checker and verify its correctness against direct formalizations of the Datalog semantics. We propose two JSON encodings for Datalog proofs: one using the widely supported Datalog proof trees, and one using directed acyclic graphs for succinctness. To evaluate the practical feasibility and performance of our approach, we validate proofs that we obtain by converting derivation traces of an existing Datalog reasoner into our tool-independent format.

Formalizing the Hidden Number Problem in Isabelle/HOL

Authors: Sage Binder, Eric Ren, and Katherine Kosaian

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

Abstract
We formalize the hidden number problem (HNP), as introduced in a seminal work by Boneh and Venkatesan in 1996, in Isabelle/HOL. Intuitively, the HNP involves demonstrating the existence of an algorithm (the "adversary") which can compute (with high probability) a hidden number α given access to a bit-leaking oracle. Originally developed to establish the security of Diffie-Hellman key exchange, the HNP has since been used not only for protocol security but also in cryptographic attacks, including notable ones on DSA and ECDSA. Further, as the HNP establishes an expressive paradigm for reasoning about security in the context of information leakage, many HNP variants for other specialized cryptographic applications have since been developed. A main contribution of our work is explicating and clarifying the HNP proof blueprint from the original source material; naturally, formalization forces us to make all assumptions and proof steps precise and transparent. For example, the source material did not explicitly define the adversary and only abstractly defined what information is being leaked; our formalization concretizes both definitions. Additionally, the HNP makes use of an instance of Babai’s nearest plane algorithm, which solves the approximate closest vector problem; we formalize this as a result of independent interest. Our formalizations of Babai’s algorithm and the HNP adversary are executable, setting up potential future work, e.g. in developing formally verified instances of cryptographic attacks.

Barendregt’s Theory of the λ-Calculus, Refreshed and Formalized

Authors: Adrienne Lancelot, Beniamino Accattoli, and Maxime Vemclefs

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

Abstract
Barendregt’s book on the untyped λ-calculus refines the inconsistent view of β-divergence as representation of the undefined via the key concept of head reduction. In this paper, we put together recent revisitations of some key theorems laid out in Barendregt’s book, and we formalize them in the Abella proof assistant. Our work provides a compact and refreshed presentation of the core of the book. The formalization faithfully mimics pen-and-paper proofs. Two interesting aspects are the manipulation of contexts for the study of contextual equivalence and a formal alternative to the informal trick at work in Takahashi’s proof of the genericity lemma. As a by-product, we obtain an alternative definition of contextual equivalence that does not mention contexts.

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.

Certified Implementability of Global Multiparty Protocols

Authors: Elaine Li and Thomas Wies

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

Abstract
Implementability is the decision problem at the heart of top-down approaches to protocol verification. In this paper, we present a mechanization of a recently proposed precise implementability characterization by Li et al. for a large class of protocols that subsumes many existing formalisms in the literature. Our protocols and implementations model asynchronous commmunication, and can exhibit infinite behavior. We improve upon their pen-and-paper results by unifying distinct formalisms, simplifying existing proof arguments, elaborating on the construction of canonical implementations, and even uncovering a subtle bug in the semantics for infinite words. As a corollary of our mechanization, we show that the original characterization of implementability applies even to protocols with infinitely many participants. We also contribute a reusable library for reasoning about generic communicating state machines. Our mechanization consists of about 15k lines of Rocq code. We believe that our mechanization can provide the foundation for deductively proving the implementability of protocols beyond the reach of prior work, extracting certified implementations for finite protocols, and investigating implementability under alternative asynchronous communication models.

Canonical for Automated Theorem Proving in Lean

Authors: Chase Norman and Jeremy Avigad

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

Abstract
Canonical is a solver for type inhabitation in dependent type theory, that is, the problem of producing a term of a given type. We present a Lean tactic which invokes Canonical to generate proof terms and synthesize programs. The tactic supports higher-order and dependently-typed goals, structural recursion over indexed inductive types, and definitional equality. Canonical finds proofs for 84% of Natural Number Game problems in 51 seconds total.

An Isabelle/HOL Formalization of Semi-Thue and Conditional Semi-Thue Systems

Authors: Dohan Kim

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

Abstract
We present a formalized framework for semi-Thue and conditional semi-Thue systems for studying monoids and their word problem using the Isabelle/HOL proof assistant. We provide a formalized decision procedure for the word problem of monoids if they are finitely presented by complete semi-Thue systems. In particular, we present a new formalized method for checking confluence using (conditional) critical pairs for certain conditional semi-Thue systems. We propose and formalize an inference system for generating conditional equational theories and Thue congruences using conditional semi-Thue systems. Then we provide a new formalized decision procedure for the word problem of monoids which have finite complete (reductive) conditional presentations.

Weighted Rewriting: Semiring Semantics for Abstract Reduction Systems

Authors: Emma Ahrens, Jan-Christoph Kassing, Jürgen Giesl, and Joost-Pieter Katoen

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

Abstract
We present novel semiring semantics for abstract reduction systems (ARSs). More precisely, we provide a weighted version of ARSs, where the reduction steps induce weights from a semiring. Inspired by provenance analysis in database theory and logic, we obtain a formalism that can be used for provenance analysis of arbitrary ARSs. Our semantics handle (possibly unbounded) non-determinism and possibly infinite reductions. Moreover, we develop several techniques to prove upper and lower bounds on the weights resulting from our semantics, and show that in this way one obtains a uniform approach to analyze several different properties like termination, derivational complexity, space complexity, safety, as well as combinations of these properties.

Completeness of the Decreasing Diagrams Method for Proving Confluence of Rewriting Systems of the Least Uncountable Cardinality

Authors: Ievgen Ivanov

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

Abstract
We show that every confluent abstract rewriting system (ARS) of the cardinality that does not exceed the first uncountable cardinal belongs to the class DCR₃, i.e. the class of confluent ARS for which confluence can be proved with the the help of the decreasing diagrams method using the set of labels {0,1,2} ordered in such a way that 0<1<2 (in the general case, the decreasing diagrams method with two labels is not sufficient for proving confluence of such ARS). Under the Continuum Hypothesis this result implies that the decreasing diagrams method is sufficient for establishing confluence of ARS on many structures of interest to applied mathematics and various interdisciplinary fields (confluence of ARS on real numbers, continuous real functions, etc.). We provide a machine-checked formal proof of a formalized version of the main result in Isabelle proof assistant using HOL logic and the HOL-Cardinals theory. An extended version of this formalization is available in the Archive of Formal Proofs.

Data Types with Symmetries via Action Containers

Authors: Philipp Joram and Niccolò Veltri

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 336, 30th International Conference on Types for Proofs and Programs (TYPES 2024)

Abstract
We study two kinds of containers for data types with symmetries in homotopy type theory, and clarify their relationship by introducing the intermediate notion of action containers. Quotient containers are set-valued containers with groups of permissible permutations of positions, interpreted as (possibly non-finitary) analytic functors on the category of sets. Symmetric containers encode symmetries in a groupoid of shapes, and are interpreted accordingly as polynomial functors on the 2-category of groupoids. Action containers are endowed with groups that act on their positions, with morphisms preserving the actions. We show that, as a category, action containers are equivalent to the free coproduct completion of a category of group actions. We derive that they model non-inductive single-variable strictly positive types in the sense of Abbott et al.: The category of action containers is closed under arbitrary (co)products and exponentiation with constants. We equip this category with the structure of a locally groupoidal 2-category, and prove that it locally embeds into the 2-category of symmetric containers. This follows from the embedding of a 2-category of groups into the 2-category of groupoids, extending the delooping construction.
