ARCH-COMP23 Category Report: Hybrid Systems Theorem Proving

Abstract

This paper reports on the Hybrid Systems Theorem Proving (HSTP) category in the ARCH-COMP Friendly Competition 2023. The characteristic features of the HSTP category remain as in the previous edition: HSTP focuses on flexibility of programming languages as structuring principles for hybrid systems, unambiguity and precision of program semantics, and mathematical rigor of logical reasoning principles. The benchmark set includes nonlinear and parametric continuous and hybrid systems and hybrid games, each in three modes: fully automatic verification, semi-automatic verification from proof hints, proof checking from scripted tactics. This instance of the competition focuses on presenting the differences between the provers on a subset of the benchmark examples.
