Abstract. Craig interpolation is an active research topic and has become a powerful technique in verification. We present SMTInterpol, an interpolating SMT solver for the quantifier free fragment of the combination of the theory of uninterpreted functions and the theory of linear arithmetic over integers and reals. A core feature of SMTInterpol is the computation of an inductive sequence of interpolants from a single proof of unsatisfiability. SMTInterpol is SMTLIB 2 compliant and available under an open source software license.

Abstract. Ultimate Automizer is a software verifier that generalizes proofs for traces to proofs for larger parts for the program. In recent years the portfolio of proof producers that are available to Ultimate has grown continuously. This is not only because more trace analysis algorithms have been implemented in Ultimate but also due to the continuous progress in the SMT community. In this paper we explain how Ultimate Automizer dynamically selects trace analysis algorithms and how the tool decides when proofs for traces are "good" enough for using them in the abstraction refinement. Verification ApproachUltimate Automizer (in the following called Automizer) is a software verifier that is able to check safety and liveness properties. The tool implements an automata-based [6] instance of the CEGAR scheme. In each iteration, we pick a trace (which is a sequence of statements) that leads from the initial location to the error location and check whether the trace is feasible (i.e., corresponds to an execution) or infeasible. If the trace is feasible, we report an error to the user; otherwise we compute a sequence of predicates along the trace as a proof of the trace's infeasibility. We call such a sequence of predicates a sequence of interpolants since each predicate "interpolates" between the set of reachable states and the set of states from which we cannot reach the error. In the refinement step of the CEGAR loop, we try to find all traces whose infeasibility can be shown with the given predicates and subtract these traces from the set of (potentially spurious) error traces that have not yet been analyzed. We use automata to represent sets of traces; hence the subtraction is implemented as an automata operation. The major difference to a classical CEGAR-based predicate abstraction is that we never have to do any logical reasoning (e.g., SMT solver calls) that involves predicates of different CEGAR iterations.We use this paper to explain how our tool obtains the interpolants that are used in the refinement step.
