Counterexample-Guided Model Synthesis

In this paper we present a new approach for solving quantified formulas in Satisfiability Modulo Theories (SMT), with a particular focus on the theory of fixed-size bit-vectors. We combine counterexampleguided quantifier instantiation with a syntax-guided synthesis approach, which allows us to synthesize both Skolem functions and terms for quantifier instantiations. Our approach employs two gro...

Interactive Realizability for Classical Peano Arithmetic with Skolem Axioms

Interactive realizability is a computational semantics of classical Arithmetic. It is based on interactive learning and was originally designed to interpret excluded middle and Skolem axioms for simple existential formulas. A realizer represents a proof/construction depending on some state, which is an approximation of some Skolem functions. The realizer interacts with the environment, which ma...

Skolemization Modulo Theories

Combining classical automated theorem proving techniques with theory based reasoning, such as satisfiability modulo theories, is a new approach to first-order reasoning modulo theories. Skolemization is a classical technique used to transform first-order formulas into equisatisfiable form. We show how Skolemization can benefit from a new satisfiability modulo theories based simplification techn...

Proofs in Higher-Order Logic

Expansion trees are defined as generalizations of Herbrand instances for formulas in a nonextensional form of higher-order logic based on Church's simple theory of types. Such expansion trees can be defined with or without the use of skolem functions. These trees store substitution terms and either critical variables or skolem terms used to instantiate quantifiers in the original formula and th...
