Finding Lexicographic Orders for Termination Proofs in Isabelle/HOL
We present a simple method to formally prove termination of recursive functions by searching for lexicographic combinations of size measures. Despite its simplicity, the method tur...

The Quantum Adversary Method and Classical Formula Size Lower Bounds
We introduce two new complexity measures for Boolean functions, which we name sumPI and maxPI. The quantity sumPI has been emerging through a line of research on quantum query com...

Symmetry detection for large Boolean functions using circuit representation, simulation, and satisfiability
- Classical two-variable symmetries play an important role in many EDA applications, ranging from logic synthesis to formal verification. This paper proposes a complete circuit-bas...

A hybrid SAT-based decision procedure for separation logic with uninterpreted functions
SAT-based decision procedures for quantifier-free fragments of firstorder logic have proved to be useful in formal verification. These decision procedures are either based on enco...

Measure Selection: Notions of Rationality and Representation Independence
We take another look at the general problem of selecting a preferred probability measure among those that comply with some given constraints. The dominant role that entropy maximi...
