We present Pyrosome, a generic framework for modular language metatheory that embodies a novel approach to extensible semantics and compilation, implemented in Coq. Common techniques for semantic reasoning are often tied to the specific…

What provides the highest level of assurance for correctness of execution within a programming language? One answer, and our solution in particular, to this problem is to provide a formalization for, if it exists, the denotational semantics…

If a code base is so big and complicated that complete mechanical verification is intractable, can we still apply and benefit from verification methods? We show that by allowing a deliberate mechanized formalization gap we can shrink and…

Template-based program repair research is in need for a common ground to express fix patterns in a standard and reusable manner. We propose to build on the concept of generic patch (also known as semantic patch), which is widely used in the…

This paper presents the latest improvements introduced in Version 4 of the UQpy, Uncertainty Quantification with Python, library. In the latest version, the code was restructured to conform with the latest Python coding conventions,…

Prior work on revision identification typically uses a pipeline method: revision extraction is first conducted to identify the locations of revisions and revision classification is then conducted on the identified revisions. Such a setting…

Code translation transforms source code from one programming language (PL) to another. Validating the functional equivalence of translation and repairing, if necessary, are critical steps in code translation. Existing automated validation…

Harnessing the power of dependently typed languages can be difficult. Programmers must manually construct proofs to produce well-typed programs, which is not an easy task. In particular, migrating code to these languages is challenging.…

Automatic Post-Editing (APE) systems often struggle with over-correction, where unnecessary modifications are made to a translation, diverging from the principle of minimal editing. In this paper, we propose a novel technique to mitigate…

Reynold's parametricity theory captures the property that parametrically polymorphic functions behave uniformly: they produce related results on related instantiations. In dependently-typed programming languages, such relations and…

Proof assistants often call automated theorem provers to prove subgoals. However, each prover has its own proof calculus and the proof traces that it produces often lack many details to build a complete proof. Hence these traces are hard to…

While frontier formal mathematics systems now routinely develop repository-scale proof engineering artifacts requiring multi-file coordination and semantic correctness beyond compilation, existing evaluation benchmarks remain focused on…
