Research interests: iProver --- an instantiation-based theorem prover for first-order logic.
  • automated reasoning
  • verification of hardware and software
  • instantiation-based reasoning
  • linear/non-linear arithmetic
  • combination of theories and reasoning methods
iProver's Prizes iProver won in 2012:
* FNT division at CASC@Turing

Teaching:
Hard Reality Tool --- HRT is a tool for randomly extracting hard and realistic theory problems (conjunctive constraints) from SMT problems with a non-trivial boolean structure. GoRRiLA is another tool for randomly generating (i) linear arithmetic problems and (ii) propositional problems.
