arXiv
pre-print
We propose an automatic and formally sound method for synthesising Lyapunov functions for the asymptotic stability of autonomous non-linear systems. ...
Traditional methods are either analytical and require manual effort or are numerical but lack of formal soundness. ...
In particular, we present a novel method for the automated and formal synthesis of Lyapunov functions. Lyapunov functions are formal certificates for the asymptotic stability of ODEs. ...

Counterexample- and Simulation-Guided Floating-Point Loop Invariant Synthesis
[chapter]
2020
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
AbstractWe present an automated procedure for synthesizing sound inductive invariants for floating-point numerical loops. ...
Such invariants are a prerequisite for reasoning about the safety and roundoff errors of floating-point programs. ...
Since such an automated method does not exist for nonlinear functions, SMT-AI is limited to linear loops. ...
