Unreliability in Practical Subclasses of Communicating Systems

Authors: Amrita Suresh and Nobuko Yoshida

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 360, 45th IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS 2025)

Abstract
Systems of communicating automata are prominent models for peer-to-peer message-passing over unbounded channels, but in the general scenario, most verification properties are undecidable. To address this issue, two decidable subclasses, Realisable with Synchronous Communication (RSC) and k-Multiparty Compatibility (k-MC), were proposed in the literature, with corresponding verification tools developed and applied in practice. Unfortunately, both RSC and k-MC are not resilient under failures: (1) their decidability relies on the assumption of perfect channels and (2) most standard protocols do not satisfy RSC or k-MC under failures. To address these limitations, this paper studies the resilience of RSC and k-MC under two distinct failure models: interference and crash-stop failures. For interference, we relax the conditions of RSC and k-MC and prove that the inclusions of these relaxed properties remain decidable under interference, preserving their known complexity bounds. We then propose a novel crash-handling communicating system that captures wider behaviours than existing multiparty session types (MPST) with crash-stop failures. We study a translation of MPST with crash-stop failures into this system integrating RSC and k-MC properties, and establish their decidability results. Finally, by verifying representative protocols from the literature using RSC and k-MC tools extended to interferences, we evaluate the relaxed systems and demonstrate their resilience.

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.

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.

Cancellative Convex Semilattices

Authors: Ana Sokolova and Harald Woracek

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 342, 11th Conference on Algebra and Coalgebra in Computer Science (CALCO 2025)

Abstract
Convex semilattices are algebras that are at the same time a convex algebra and a semilattice, together with a distributivity axiom. These algebras have attracted some attention in the last years as suitable algebras for probability and nondeterminism, in particular by being the Eilenberg-Moore algebras of the nonempty finitely-generated convex subsets of the distributions monad. A convex semilattice is cancellative if the underlying convex algebra is cancellative. Cancellative convex algebras have been characterized by M. H. Stone and by H. Kneser: A convex algebra is cancellative if and only if it is isomorphic to a convex subset of a vector space (with canonical convex algebra operations). We prove an analogous theorem for convex semilattices: A convex semilattice is cancellative if and only if it is isomorphic to a convex subset of a Riesz space, i.e., a lattice-ordered vector space (with canonical convex semilattice operations).

Contrasting Deadlock-Free Session Processes

Authors: Juan C. Jaramillo and Jorge A. Pérez

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

Abstract
Deadlock freedom is a crucial property for message-passing programs. Over the years, several different type systems for concurrent processes that ensure deadlock freedom have been proposed; this diversity raises the question of how they compare. We address this question, considering two type systems not covered in prior work: Kokke et al.’s HCP, a type system based on a linear logic with hypersequents, and Padovani’s priority-based type system for asynchronous processes, dubbed 𝖯. Their distinctive features make formal comparisons relevant and challenging. Our findings are two-fold: (1) the hypersequent setting does not drastically change the class of deadlock-free processes induced by linear logic, and (2) we relate the classes of deadlock-free processes induced by HCP and 𝖯. We prove that our results hold under both synchronous and asynchronous communication. Our results provide new insights into the essential mechanisms involved in statically avoiding deadlocks in concurrency.

Monotone Weak Distributive Laws over the Lifted Powerset Monad in Categories of Algebras

Authors: Quentin Aristote

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 327, 42nd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2025)

Abstract
In both the category of sets and the category of compact Hausdorff spaces, there is a monotone weak distributive law that combines two layers of non-determinism. Noticing the similarity between these two laws, we study whether the latter can be obtained automatically as a weak lifting of the former. This holds partially, but does not generalize to other categories of algebras. We then characterize when exactly monotone weak distributive laws over powerset monads in categories of algebras exist, on the one hand exhibiting a law combining probabilities and non-determinism in compact Hausdorff spaces and showing on the other hand that such laws do not exist in a lot of other cases.

Quantitative Graded Semantics and Spectra of Behavioural Metrics

Authors: Jonas Forster, Lutz Schröder, Paul Wild, Harsh Beohar, Sebastian Gurke, Barbara König, and Karla Messing

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 326, 33rd EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2025)

Abstract
Behavioural metrics provide a quantitative refinement of classical two-valued behavioural equivalences on systems with quantitative data, such as metric or probabilistic transition systems. In analogy to the linear-time/ branching-time spectrum of two-valued behavioural equivalences on transition systems, behavioural metrics vary in granularity, and are often characterized by fragments of suitable modal logics. In the latter respect, the quantitative case is, however, more involved than the two-valued one; in fact, we show that probabilistic metric trace distance cannot be characterized by any compositionally defined modal logic with unary modalities. We go on to provide a unifying treatment of spectra of behavioural metrics in the emerging framework of graded monads, working in coalgebraic generality, that is, parametrically in the system type. In the ensuing development of quantitative graded semantics, we introduce algebraic presentations of graded monads on the category of metric spaces. Moreover, we provide a general criterion for a given real-valued modal logic to characterize a given behavioural distance. As a case study, we apply this criterion to obtain a new characteristic modal logic for trace distance in fuzzy metric transition systems.

Promptness and Fairness in Muller LTL Formulas

Authors: Damien Busatto-Gaston, Youssouf Oualhadj, Léo Tible, and Daniele Varacca

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 323, 44th IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS 2024)

Abstract
In this paper we consider two different views of the model checking problem for the Linear Temporal Logic (LTL). On the one hand, we consider the universal model checking problem for LTL, where one asks that for a given system and a given formula all the runs of the system satisfy the formula. On the other hand, the fair model checking problem for LTL asks that for a given system and a given formula almost all the runs of the system satisfy the formula. It was shown that these two problems have the same theoretical complexity, i.e. PSPACE-complete. A less expensive fragment was identified in a previous work, namely the Muller fragment, which consists of combinations of repeated reachability properties. We consider prompt LTL formulas (pLTL), that extend LTL with an additional operator, i.e. the prompt-eventually. This operator ensures the existence of a bound such that reachability properties are satisfied within this bound. This extension comes at no cost since the model checking problem remains PSPACE-complete. We show that the corresponding Muller fragment of pLTL, with prompt repeated reachability properties, enjoys similar computational improvements. Another feature of Muller formulas is that the model checking problem becomes easier under the fairness assumption. This distinction is lost in the prompt setting, as we show that the two problems are equivalent instance-wise. Subsequently, we identify a new prefix independent fragment of pLTL for which the fair model checking problem is less expensive than the universal one.

Reducing (To) the Ranks: Efficient Rank-Based Büchi Automata Complementation

Authors: Vojtěch Havlena and Ondřej Lengál

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 203, 32nd International Conference on Concurrency Theory (CONCUR 2021)

Abstract
This paper provides several optimizations of the rank-based approach for complementing Büchi automata. We start with Schewe’s theoretically optimal construction and develop a set of techniques for pruning its state space that are key to obtaining small complement automata in practice. In particular, the reductions (except one) have the property that they preserve (at least some) so-called super-tight runs, which are runs whose ranking is as tight as possible. Our evaluation on a large benchmark shows that the optimizations indeed significantly help the rank-based approach and that, in a large number of cases, the obtained complement is the smallest from those produced by state-of-the-art tools for Büchi complementation.

Inclusion Testing of Büchi Automata Based on Well-Quasiorders

Authors: Kyveli Doveri, Pierre Ganty, Francesco Parolini, and Francesco Ranzato

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 203, 32nd International Conference on Concurrency Theory (CONCUR 2021)

Abstract
We introduce an algorithmic framework to decide whether inclusion holds between languages of infinite words over a finite alphabet. Our approach falls within the class of Ramsey-based methods and relies on a least fixpoint characterization of ω-languages leveraging ultimately periodic infinite words of type uv^ω, with u a finite prefix and v a finite period of an infinite word. We put forward an inclusion checking algorithm between Büchi automata, called BAInc, designed as a complete abstract interpretation using a pair of well-quasiorders on finite words. BAInc is quite simple: it consists of two least fixpoint computations (one for prefixes and the other for periods) manipulating finite sets (of pairs) of states compared by set inclusion, so that language inclusion holds when the sets (of pairs) of states of the fixpoints satisfy some basic conditions. We implemented BAInc in a tool called BAIT that we experimentally evaluated against the state-of-the-art. We gathered, in addition to existing benchmarks, a large number of new case studies stemming from program verification and word combinatorics, thereby significantly expanding both the scope and size of the available benchmark set. Our experimental results show that BAIT advances the state-of-the-art on an overwhelming majority of these benchmarks. Finally, we demonstrate the generality of our algorithmic framework by instantiating it to the inclusion problem of Büchi pushdown automata into Büchi automata.

Nominal Büchi Automata with Name Allocation

Authors: Henning Urbat, Daniel Hausmann, Stefan Milius, and Lutz Schröder

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 203, 32nd International Conference on Concurrency Theory (CONCUR 2021)

Abstract
Infinite words over infinite alphabets serve as models of the temporal development of the allocation and (re-)use of resources over linear time. We approach ω-languages over infinite alphabets in the setting of nominal sets, and study languages of infinite bar strings, i.e. infinite sequences of names that feature binding of fresh names; binding corresponds roughly to reading letters from input words in automata models with registers. We introduce regular nominal nondeterministic Büchi automata (Büchi RNNAs), an automata model for languages of infinite bar strings, repurposing the previously introduced RNNAs over finite bar strings. Our machines feature explicit binding (i.e. resource-allocating) transitions and process their input via a Büchi-type acceptance condition. They emerge from the abstract perspective on name binding given by the theory of nominal sets. As our main result we prove that, in contrast to most other nondeterministic automata models over infinite alphabets, language inclusion of Büchi RNNAs is decidable and in fact elementary. This makes Büchi RNNAs a suitable tool for applications in model checking.
