2 Labeled Transition Systems Let AP be the (finite) set of atomic propositions 2 AP is the (finite) alphabet Definition A Labeled Transition System (LTS) is a tuple T = AP, S, S 0, R, τ where AP is the set of labels (atomic propositions) S is the finite set of states S 0 S is the set of initial states R S S is the transition relation τ : S 2 AP is the labeling function (each state is labeled with a set of propositions!) Lecture 4 Automata on Infinite words and LTL Model Checking 2 / 35
3 Labeled Transition Systems A (finite or infinite) run ρ in T is a sequence ρ = s 0s 1s 2... where s 0 S 0 is an initial state of T i 0, (s i, s i+1 ) R For ρ a run in T, trace(ρ) = τ(s 0)τ(s 1)τ(s 2)... Traces(T ) = {trace(ρ) ρ a run in T } is the set of traces of T Use Regular Expressions to express properties for finite runs (see LFA course) Linear-time Temporal Logic(LTL) can express properties on infinite runs Lecture 4 Automata on Infinite words and LTL Model Checking 3 / 35
4 Linear-time Temporal Logic - Syntax LTL = propositional calculus + temporal extension Temporal operators: X ( next ); U( until ) Definition (LTL syntax) Given a set AP of atomic propositions, a LTL formula over AP is defined by the following syntax: ϕ ::= p ϕ ϕ ϕ X ϕ ϕuϕ where p AP. We can define the following macros: ϕ 1 ϕ 2 = ( ϕ 1 ϕ 2) (ϕ 1 and ϕ 2) ϕ 1 ϕ 2 = ϕ 1 ϕ 2 (ϕ 1 implies ϕ 2) ϕ 1 ϕ 2 = (ϕ 1 ϕ 2) (ϕ 2 ϕ 1) (ϕ 1 equivalent to ϕ 2) F ϕ = true Uϕ ( eventually ϕ) Gϕ = F ϕ ( always ϕ) ϕ 1Rϕ 1 = Gϕ 1 ϕ 1Uϕ 2 (ϕ 1 releases ϕ 2) Lecture 4 Automata on Infinite words and LTL Model Checking 4 / 35
5 Linear-time Temporal Logic - Semantic LTL formulas are evaluated over infinite words w = w 0w 1w 2... (2 AP ) ω Definition LTL Semantics Given a word w = w 0w 1w 2... (2 AP ) ω and a position i 0, w, i = p iff p w i w, i = ϕ iff w, i = ϕ w, i = ϕ 1 ϕ 2 iff w, i = ϕ 1 or w, i = ϕ 2 w, i = X ϕ iff w, i + 1 = ϕ w, i = ϕ 1Uϕ 2 iff j i s.t. w, j = ϕ 2 and w, k = ϕ 1 for all i k < j The language of ϕ: L(ϕ) = {w (2 AP ) ω w, 0 = ϕ} Lecture 4 Automata on Infinite words and LTL Model Checking 5 / 35
6 LTL Model checking Verify that T satisfies LTL formula ϕ: Traces(T ) L(ϕ) Traces(T ) L( ϕ) = Use automata to encode the language of ϕ We build an automaton A ϕ s.t. A ϕ accepts w iff w L(ϕ) Lecture 4 Automata on Infinite words and LTL Model Checking 6 / 35
7 Nondeterministic Büchi word automata (NBA) Definition (Nondeterministic Büchi word automata) A Nondeterministic Büchi automaton accepting words over 2 AP is a tuple A = 2 AP, Q, Q 0, δ, T where 2 AP is the alphabet Q is the set of states Q 0 Q is the set of initial states δ Q 2 AP Q is the transition relation T Q is the set of accepting states i.e. just like a nondeterministic finite automaton (NFA) (see LFA) The difference is the accepting condition...

8 Runs of a NBA Example Consider a Büchi automaton A = 2 AP, Q, Q 0, δ, T A run of A on an infinite word w = w 0w 1w 2... is an infinite sequence q 0q 1q 2... Q ω s.t. q 0 Q 0 is an initial state of A and (q i, w i, q i+1 ) δ for all i 0 w = ({a}{b}{b}) ω ρ = q 0 a q 1 b q 0 b q 0 a q 1 b q 0... Let inf(ρ) be the set of states that appear infinitely often in ρ: inf(ρ) = {q i 0, j i s.t. ρ(i) = q} An accepting run is a run with q i T infinitely often : inf(ρ) T Example ρ = q 0 a q 1 b q 0 b q 0 a q 1 b q 0 b q 0 a q 1... on w = ({a}{b}{b}) ω is accepting ρ = q 0 b q 0 b q 0 b q 0... on w = ({b}) ω is not accepting in A from above Lecture 4 Automata on Infinite words and LTL Model Checking 8 / 35
9 Language of a NBA A word w is accepted by a NBW A iff there exists an accepting run on w in A Example (Eventually Globally a (FGa)) For AP = {a, b}, For w = {a}{b}{b}({a}) ω, the run ρ = (q 0) ω is not accepting but ρ = q 0q 0q 0q 0(q 1) ω is accepting and therefore w is accepted For w = ({a}{b}{b}) ω, the possible runs are ρ = (q 0) q 1(q 2) ω or ρ = (q 0) ω w is not accepted The language L(A) of A is the set of words accepted by the automaton A A set L of words is Büchi recognizable if there is a Büchi automaton A s.t. L(A) = L. Lecture 4 Automata on Infinite words and LTL Model Checking 9 / 35

24 LTL to NBA - Rewriting Put the formula in Negative Normal Form Negation appears only in front of literals Use the following identities to propagate the negations inwards: ϕ ϕ X ϕ X ϕ Gϕ F ϕ F ϕ G ϕ (ϕ 1 ϕ 2) ( ϕ 1) ( ϕ 2) (ϕ 1 ϕ 2) ( ϕ 1) ( ϕ 2) (ϕ 1Uϕ 2) ( ϕ 1)R( ϕ 2) (ϕ 1Rϕ 2) ( ϕ 1)U( ϕ 2) Definition An LTL formula is in Negative Normal Form (NNF) if it follows the syntax given by ϕ ::= p p ϕ ϕ ϕ ϕ X ϕ ϕuϕ ϕrϕ where p AP is an atomic proposition.

The formulas in Z are seen as obligations If a run ρ on a word w starts in Z and satisfies the accepting condition, then w, 0 = ψ The only initial state of A ϕ is Z = {ϕ} Transitions to next states are given by the formulas of the form X ψ from Z Need to reduce Z such that all formulas in Z are either literals or have the form X ψ ψ Z Lecture 4 Automata on Infinite words and LTL Model Checking 21 / 35

43 Back to LTL Model Checking Recall: T satisfies the LTL formula ϕ iff Traces(T ) L( ϕ) = Since L(A ϕ) = L( ϕ), T satisfies the LTL formula ϕ iff L(A T A ϕ) = Where A T is the Büchi automaton of size O( T ) s.t. L(A T ) = Traces(T ) A ϕ is the Büchi automaton recognizing models of ϕ obtained as before. Its size is 2 O( ϕ ) is the synchronous product operation If L(A T A ϕ), any behavior in it is an counterexample. Counterexamples are always of the form uv ω, where u and v are finite words Lecture 4 Automata on Infinite words and LTL Model Checking 32 / 35
44 LTL Model Checking - Complexity Theorem Checking whether an LTL formula ϕ is satisfied by a LTS T can be done in time O( T 2 O( ϕ ) ). i.e., checking is polynomial in the size of the model and exponential in the size of the specification.
