Inferring Min and Max Invariants Using Max-Plus Polyhedra
نویسندگان
چکیده
We introduce a new numerical abstract domain able to infer min and max invariants over the program variables, based on max-plus polyhedra. Our abstraction is more precise than octagons, and allows to express non-convex properties without any disjunctive representations. We have defined sound abstract operators, evaluated their complexity, and implemented them in a static analyzer. It is able to automatically compute precise properties on numerical and memory manipulating programs such as algorithms on strings and arrays.

Reachability analysis for timed automata using max-plus algebra
We show that max-plus polyhedra are usable as a data structure in reachability analysis of timed automata. Drawing inspiration from the extensive work that has been done on difference bound matrices, as well as previous work on max-plus polyhedra in other areas, we develop the algorithms needed to perform forward and backward reachability analysis using maxplus polyhedra. To show that the appro...
متن کاملA stabilizing model predictive controller for uncertain max-plus-linear systems and uncertain switching max-plus-linear systems ⋆
We first discuss conditions for stability for uncertain max-plus-linear systems and for uncertain switching max-plus-linear systems, where in the uncertainty description the system matrices live in a union of polyhedra. Based on the newly derived stability conditions, a stabilizing model predictive controller is derived for both uncertain max-plus-linear systems and uncertain switching max-plus...
متن کاملMax-Plus Convex Geometry
Max-plus analogues of linear spaces, convex sets, and polyhedra have appeared in several works. We survey their main geometrical properties, including max-plus versions of the separation theorem, existence of linear and non-linear projectors, max-plus analogues of the Minkowski-Weyl theorem, and the characterization of the analogues of “simplicial” cones in terms of distributive lattices.
متن کاملMax-Plus algebra on tensors and its properties
In this paper we generalize the max plus algebra system of real matrices to the class of real tensors and derive its fundamental properties. Also we give some basic properties for the left (right) inverse, under the new system. The existence of order 2 left (right) inverses of tensors is characterized.

In this thesis, we define a static analysis by abstract interpretation of memory manipulations. It is based on a new numerical abstract domain, which is able to infer program invariants involving the operators min and max. This domain relies on tropical polyhedra, which are the analogues of convex polyhedra in tropical algebra. Tropical algebra refers to the set R∪{−∞} endowed with max as addit...
