Motivated by applications in software verification, we explore automated reasoning about the non-disjoint combination of theories of infinitely many finite structures, where the theories share set variables and set operations. We prove a combination theore ...
Our goal is to identify families of relations that are useful for reasoning about software. We describe such families using decidable quantifier-free classes of logical constraints with a rich set of operations. A key challenge is to define such classes of ...
We present decision procedures for logical constraints that support reasoning about collections of elements such as sets, multisets, and fuzzy sets. Element membership in such collections is given by a characteristic function from a finite universe (of unk ...
Boolean Algebra with Presburger Arithmetic (BAPA) is a decidable logic that can express constraints on sets of elements and their cardinalities. Problems from verification of complex properties of software often contain fragments that belong to quantifier- ...
We explore the problem of automated reasoning about the non-disjoint combination of theories that share set variables and operations. We prove a combination theorem and apply it to show the decidability of the satisfiability problem for a class of formulas ...

We consider an extension of integer linear arithmetic with a star operator that takes closure under vector addition of the set of solutions of linear arithmetic subformula. We show that the satisfiability problem for this language is in NP (and therefore N ...
We present a semi-decision procedure for checking satisfiability of formulas in the language of algebraic data types and integer linear arithmetic extended with user-defined terminating recursive functions. Our procedure is designed to integrate into a DPL ...
Motivated by the problem of deciding verification conditions for the verification of functional programs, we present new decision procedures for automated reasoning about functional lists. We first show how to decide in NP the satisfiability problem for lo ...
We consider an extension of integer linear arithmetic with a “star” operator takes closure under vector addition of the solution set of a linear arithmetic subformula. We show that the satisfiability problem for this extended language remains in NP (and th ...
This thesis presents NC(T), an extension of the DPLL(T) scheme [16, 29] for decision procedures for quantifier-free first-order logics. In DPLL(T), a general Boolean DPLL engine is instantiated with a theory solver for the theory T. The DPLL engine is resp ...
