We reduce synthesis for CTL* properties to synthesis for LTL. In the context of model checking this is impossible - CTL* is more expressive than LTL. Yet, in synthesis we have knowledge of the system structure and we can add new outputs.…

While LLaDA2.0 showcased the scaling potential of 100B-level block-diffusion models and their inherent parallelization, the delicate equilibrium between decoding speed and generation quality has remained an elusive frontier. Today, we…

Global protocol specifications are the starting point of top-down verification methodologies, and serve as a blueprint for synthesizing local specifications that guarantee the correctness of distributed implementations. In this work, we…
