This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $250,000 supports research at the University of California, San Diego to develop automated techniques for lemma synthesis in interactive theorem provers. The goal is to reduce the manual proof effort required when using interactive theorem provers to prove correctness and security properties of software. The project will explore multiple formulations of reducing the lemma synthesis problem to data-driven program synthesis, where the objective is to synthesize expressions that meet input-output examples generated from the current proof state. This aims to identify auxiliary lemmas in a manner that is both goal-directed and expressive. The university will develop filtering and ranking methods to help users identify useful candidate lemmas synthesized, and integrate the approach as a tactic in the Coq proof assistant. Evaluation will include automated experiments and user studies to iteratively improve the resulting tool. The award is funded under the National Science Foundation's Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070).
