This Project Grant award of $518,186 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070) supports research at the University of New Mexico to develop new methods for automatically verifying the correctness of mathematical statements involving polynomial inequalities. The project aims to create symbolic-numeric algorithms and formal guarantees for reasoning about polynomial inequalities, with potential applications in software verification, neural network certification, and optimization in engineering and physical sciences. The research will explore two complementary approaches - an algebraic approach leveraging Gröbner basis methods and a geometric approach building on Positivstellensatz theory - to generate trustworthy certificates that explain why polynomial inequality statements are correct. The anticipated outcomes of this 3-year project, which runs from July 2025 to June 2028, include improved safety and reliability of complex systems such as autonomous vehicles and intelligent controllers.
