- remove reduce_invertible. It is subsumed by reduce_uncstr(2)
- introduce a simplifier for reduce_unconstrained. It uses reference counting to deal with inefficiency bug of legacy reduce_uncstr. It decomposes theory plugins into expr_inverter.
reduce_invertible is a tactic used in most built-in scenarios. It is useful for removing subterms that can be eliminated using "cheap" quantifier elimination. Specifically variables that occur only once can be removed in many cases by computing an expression that represents the effect computing a value for the eliminated occurrence.
The theory plugins for variable elimination are very partial and should be augmented by extensions, esp. for the case of bit-vectors where the invertibility conditions are thoroughly documented by Niemetz and Preiner.
the solve_eqs_tactic is to be replaced by a re-implementation that uses solve_eqs in the simplifiers directory.
The re-implementation should address efficiency issues with the previous code.
At this point it punts on low level proofs. The plan is to use coarser
dependency tracking instead of low level proofs for pre-processing. Dependencies can be converted into a proof hint representation that can be checked using a stronger checker.
simplifiers layer is a common substrate for global non-incremental and incremental processing.
The first two layers are new, but others are to be ported form tactics.
- bv::slice - rewrites equations to cut-dice-slice bit-vector extractions until they align. It creates opportunities for rewriting portions of bit-vectors to common sub-expressions, including values.
- euf::completion - generalizes the KB simplifcation from asserted formulas to use the E-graph to establish a global and order-independent canonization.
The interface dependent_expr_simplifier is amenable to forming tactics. Plugins for asserted-formulas is also possible but not yet realized.
- ensure mk_extract performs simplification to distribute over extract and removing extract if the range is the entire bit-vector
- ensure bool_rewriter simplifeis disjunctions when applicable.
#6319 - fix incompleteness in propagation of default to all array terms in the equivalence class.
Fix bug with q_mbi where domain restrictions are not using values because the current model does not evaluate certain bound variables to values. Set model completion when adding these bound variables to the model to ensure their values are not missed.
Add better propagation of diagnostics when tactics and the new solver return unknown. The reason for unknown can now be traced to what theory was culprit (currently no additional information)
conversion from AIG to expressions should always use the optimized conversion function.
the aig-tactic should throttle regarding output bloat from AIG.
If the expression after AIG simpification, for whatever reason, is bloated the rewrite does not take place.
