A Modular Framework for Proof-Search via Formalised Modal Completeness in HOL Light

Authors: Antonella Bilotta, Marco Maggesi, and Cosimo Perini Brogi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 363, 34th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2026)

Abstract
We extend the existing HOL Light Library for Modal Systems (HOLMS) to support a modular implementation of modal reasoning within the HOL Light proof assistant. We deeply embed axiomatic calculi and relational semantics for seven normal modal logics (K, T, B, K4, S4, S5, GL) and formalise modal adequacy theorems for these systems. We then leverage those formalisations to implement a mechanism for automated reasoning via proof-search in the associated labelled sequent calculi, which we shallowly embed in HOL Light’s goal-stack mechanism. This way, we equip the general-purpose proof assistant with (semi)decision procedures for these logics that, in case of failure to construct a proof for the input formula, return a certified countermodel within the appropriate class for the logic under consideration. On the methodological side, we propose a precise measure of the modularity of our approach by systematically adopting Christopher Strachey’s distinction between ad hoc and parametric polymorphism throughout the library.

The Groupoid-Syntax of Type Theory Is a Set

Authors: Thorsten Altenkirch, Ambrus Kaposi, and Szumi Xie

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 363, 34th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2026)

Abstract
Categories with families (CwFs) have been used to define the semantics of type theory in type theory. In the setting of Homotopy Type Theory (HoTT), one of the limitations of the traditional notion of CwFs is the requirement to set-truncate types, which excludes models based on univalent categories, such as the standard set model. To address this limitation, we introduce the concept of a Groupoid Category with Families (GCwF). This framework truncates types at the groupoid level and incorporates coherence equations, providing a natural extension of the CwF framework when starting from a 1-category. We demonstrate that the initial GCwF for a type theory with a base family of sets and Π-types (groupoid-syntax) is set-truncated. Consequently, this allows us to utilize the conventional intrinsic syntax of type theory while enabling interpretations in semantically richer and more natural models. All constructions in this paper were formalised in Cubical Agda.

Exact and Heuristic Dynamic Taxi Sharing with Transfers Using Shortest-Path Speedup Techniques

Authors: Johannes Breitling and Moritz Laupichler

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 137, 25th Symposium on Algorithmic Approaches for Transportation Modelling, Optimization, and Systems (ATMOS 2025)

Abstract
We introduce a first-of-its-kind efficient, exact algorithm for the dynamic taxi-sharing problem with single-transfer journeys, i.e., a dispatcher that assigns traveler requests to a fleet of shared taxi-like vehicles allowing transfers between vehicles. We extend an existing no-transfer solution by collecting all viable pickup and dropoff vehicles for a request and computing the optimal transfer point for every pair of vehicles. We analyze underlying shortest-path problems and employ state-of-the-art routing algorithms to compute distances on-the-fly, which serves as the basis of dispatching requests with exact and up-to-date travel time information. We utilize constraints on existing routes, pruning techniques for transfer points, and both instruction- and thread-level parallelism to speed up the computation of the best assignment for every traveler. In addition to the exact variant, we propose a tunable heuristic approach that sacrifices solution quality in favor of improved running time. We evaluate our algorithm on a large road network with realistic input sets (up to 150000 requests). We demonstrate the effectiveness of our speedup techniques and the heuristic. We show first results on the benefits of transfers for taxi sharing on dense request sets, proving that our algorithm is well suited for the analysis of taxi sharing with transfers on large input instances.

A Model for Strategic Ridepooling and Its Integration with Line Planning

Authors: Lena Dittrich, Michael Rihlmann, Sarah Roth, and Anita Schöbel

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 137, 25th Symposium on Algorithmic Approaches for Transportation Modelling, Optimization, and Systems (ATMOS 2025)

Abstract
Ridepooling becomes more and more popular and providing comfortable and easy-to-use transportation (nearly as taxi rides) is known to motivate passengers to use public transport. In this paper we develop a model for strategic planning of ridepooling. Here we decide in which regions ridepooling should be offered and what capacities are needed, neglecting the operational details of dial-a-ride planning. We use this model for integrating ridepooling and line planning, and analyze the integrated model theoretically and numerically. Our experiments show the potential of the approach.

PvpAMM: A Perpetual Market for Unbalanced Long-Short Positions

Authors: Zhenhang Shang, Zhenyu Zhao, and Kani Chen

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 354, 7th Conference on Advances in Financial Technologies (AFT 2025)

Abstract
Perpetual futures - swap contracts without expiration dates - are the most widely traded derivatives in cryptocurrency markets. Traditional perpetual trading relies on order books, which require substantial bilateral liquidity and face challenges in high-volatility environments. In this paper, we introduce pvpAMM, a peer-to-peer perpetual trading protocol based on automated market maker (AMM) principles. The protocol enables efficient settlement of long-short mismatched markets and drives positions toward equilibrium: when the minority leveraged side wins, their returns are amplified compared to conventional perpetual contracts, while the opposite occurs when the majority side prevails. We also propose arbitrage mechanisms to maintain economic equilibrium within the pvpAMM system. By incorporating liquidity providers (LPs), the protocol aligns more closely with traditional order book trading. Numerical experiments validate our theoretical findings.

A Mechanized First-Order Theory of Algebraic Data Types with Pattern Matching

Authors: Joshua M. Cohen

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

Abstract
Algebraic data types (ADTs) and pattern matching are widely used to write elegant functional programs and to specify program behavior. These constructs are critical to most general-purpose interactive theorem provers (e.g. Lean, Rocq/Coq), first-order SMT-based deductive verifiers (e.g. Dafny, VeriFast), and intermediate verification languages (e.g. Why3). Such features require layers of compilation - in Rocq, pattern matches are compiled to remove nesting, while SMT-based tools further axiomatize ADTs with a first-order specification. However, these critical steps have been omitted from prior formalizations of such toolchains (e.g. MetaRocq). We give the first proved-sound sophisticated pattern matching compiler (based on Maranget’s compilation to decision trees) and first-order axiomatization of ADTs, both based on Why3 implementations. We prove the soundness of exhaustiveness checking, extending pen-and-paper proofs from the literature, and formulate a robustness property with which we find an exhaustiveness-related bug in Why3. We show that many of our proofs could be useful for reasoning about any first-order program verifier supporting ADTs.

Sledgehammering Without ATPs (Short Paper)

Authors: Martin Desharnais and Jasmin Blanchette

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

Abstract
We describe an alternative architecture for "hammers," inspired by Magnushammer, in which proofs are found by the proof assistant’s built-in automation instead of by external automatic theorem provers (ATPs). We implemented this approach in Isabelle’s Sledgehammer and evaluated it. The new ATP-free approach nicely complements the traditional Sledgehammer. The two approaches in combination solve more goals than the traditional ATP-based approach alone.

Scott’s Representation Theorem and the Univalent Karoubi Envelope

Authors: Arnoud van der Leer, Kobe Wullaert, and Benedikt Ahrens

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

Abstract
Lambek and Scott constructed a correspondence between simply-typed lambda calculi and Cartesian closed categories. Scott’s Representation Theorem is a cousin to this result for untyped lambda calculi. It states that every untyped lambda calculus arises from a reflexive object in some category. We present a formalization of Scott’s Representation Theorem in univalent foundations, in the (Rocq-)UniMath library. Specifically, we implement two proofs of that theorem, one by Scott and one by Hyland. We also explain the role of the Karoubi envelope - a categorical construction - in the proofs and the impact the chosen foundation has on this construction. Finally, we report on some automation we have implemented for the reduction of λ-terms.

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.

Autosubst: On Mechanising Binders in a General-Purpose Proof Assistant (Invited Talk)

Authors: Kathrin Stark

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

Abstract
The question of handling binders effectively regularly comes up when mechanising results in a proof assistant. Since the beginning of proof assistants, many solutions have been suggested: these include de Bruijn syntax, locally nameless binders, nominal syntax or HOAS. But even today - 20 years after the POPLMark Challenge [Brian E. Aydemir et al., 2005] - new tools and approaches to binding are still being published. Binders are still mentioned as being a complication of mechanised proofs over pen-and-paper proofs and the source of uninteresting technicalities and heaps of boilerplate - particularly, when working in a proof assistant without native support for binders or quotients. Autosubst [Steven Schäfer et al., 2015; Steven Schäfer et al., 2015], initially developed a decade ago as a teaching tool, addresses this problem by automating boilerplate code generation for a de Bruijn representation in the Rocq prover. Autosubst translates a specification into the corresponding pure or scoped de Bruijn algebra: It hence generates a corresponding instantiation operation for parallel substitutions, and several equational substitution lemmas. Central to its usability is a rewriting tactic that automatically decides equality up to substitutions, requiring minimal input and knowledge from the user’s side. This greatly simplifies using the otherwise notoriously difficult de Bruijn representation. Since then, Autosubst has been successfully used in several projects. In this talk, I will give an overview of the background and history of Autosubst and give an overview on the work, tools, and formalisations around it [Kathrin Stark et al., 2019; Kathrin Stark, 2020; Andreas Abel et al., 2019]. Moreover, this talk will highlight some of the more recent extensions [Yannick Forster and Kathrin Stark, 2020] as well as outline future challenges and directions.

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.

Finiteness of Symbolic Derivatives in Lean

Authors: Ekaterina Zhuchko, Hendrik Maarand, Margus Veanes, and Gabriel Ebner

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

Abstract
Brzozowski proved that the set of derivatives of any regular expression is finite modulo associativity, idempotence and, notably, commutativity of the union operator. We extend this result to the case of symbolic location based derivatives, for which we prove finiteness of the state space by quotienting only by associativity, deduplication and idempotence (ADI); the fact that we don't use commutativity allows for this result to carry over to the derivative based backtracking (PCRE) match semantics, where the union operator is noncommutative. Furthermore, we consider regular expressions extended with lookarounds, intersection, and negation. We also show that our method for proving finiteness allows us to include certain simplification rules in the derivative operation while preserving finiteness. The finiteness proof is constructive: given an expression R, we construct a finite set that is an overapproximation (modulo ADI) of the set of derivatives of R. We reuse some of the infrastructure provided in previous formalization efforts for regular expressions in Lean 4, showing the flexibility and reusability of the framework.

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.
