Omega: a (deprecated) solver for arithmetic
=====================================================================
:Author: Pierre Crégut
.. warning::
The :tacn:`omega` tactic is deprecated in favor of the :tacn:`lia`
tactic. The goal is to consolidate the arithmetic solving
capabilities of Coq into a single engine; moreover, :tacn:`lia` is
in general more powerful than :tacn:`omega` (it is a complete
Presburger arithmetic solver while :tacn:`omega` was known to be
incomplete).
It is recommended to switch from :tacn:`omega` to :tacn:`lia` in existing
projects. We also ask that you report (in our `bug tracker
<https://github.com/coq/coq/issues>`_) any issue you encounter, especially
if the issue was not present in :tacn:`omega`. If no new issues are
reported, :tacn:`omega` will be removed soon.
Note that replacing :tacn:`omega` with :tacn:`lia` can break
non-robust proof scripts which rely on incompleteness bugs of
:tacn:`omega` (e.g. using the pattern :g:`; try omega`).
Description of ``omega``
------------------------
.. tacn:: omega
.. deprecated:: 8.12
Use :tacn:`lia` instead.
:tacn:`omega` is a tactic for solving goals in Presburger arithmetic,
i.e. for proving formulas made of equations and inequalities over the
type ``nat`` of natural numbers or the type ``Z`` of binary-encoded integers.
Formulas on ``nat`` are automatically injected into ``Z``. The procedure
may use any hypothesis of the current proof session to solve the goal.
Multiplication is handled by :tacn:`omega` but only goals where at
least one of the two multiplicands of products is a constant are
solvable. This is the restriction meant by "Presburger arithmetic".
If the tactic cannot solve the goal, it fails with an error message.
In any case, the computation eventually stops.
Arithmetical goals recognized by ``omega``
------------------------------------------
:tacn:`omega` applies only to quantifier-free formulas built from the connectives::
/\ \/ ~ ->
on atomic formulas. Atomic formulas are built from the predicates::
= < <= > >=
on ``nat`` or ``Z``. In expressions of type ``nat``, :tacn:`omega` recognizes::
+ - * S O pred
and in expressions of type ``Z``, :tacn:`omega` recognizes numeral constants and::
+ - * Z.succ Z.pred
All expressions of type ``nat`` or ``Z`` not built on these
operators are considered abstractly as if they
were arbitrary variables of type ``nat`` or ``Z``.
Messages from ``omega``
-----------------------
When :tacn:`omega` does not solve the goal, one of the following errors
is generated:
.. exn:: omega can't solve this system.
This may happen if your goal is not quantifier-free (if it is
universally quantified, try :tacn:`intros` first; if it contains
existentials quantifiers too, :tacn:`omega` is not strong enough to solve your
goal). This may happen also if your goal contains arithmetical
operators not recognized by :tacn:`omega`. Finally, your goal may be simply
not true!
.. exn:: omega: Not a quantifier-free goal.
If your goal is universally quantified, you should first apply
:tacn:`intro` as many times as needed.
.. exn:: omega: Unrecognized predicate or connective: @ident.
:undocumented:
.. exn:: omega: Unrecognized atomic proposition: ...
:undocumented:
.. exn:: omega: Can't solve a goal with proposition variables.
:undocumented:
.. exn:: omega: Unrecognized proposition.
:undocumented:
.. exn:: omega: Can't solve a goal with non-linear products.
:undocumented:
.. exn:: omega: Can't solve a goal with equality on type ...
:undocumented:
Using ``omega``
---------------
The ``omega`` tactic does not belong to the core system. It should be
loaded by
.. coqtop:: in
Require Import Omega.
.. example::
.. coqtop:: all warn
Require Import Omega.
Open Scope Z_scope.
Goal forall m n:Z, 1 + 2 * m <> 2 * n.
intros; omega.
Abort.
Goal forall z:Z, z > 0 -> 2 * z + 1 > z.
intro; omega.
Abort.
Options
-------
.. flag:: Stable Omega
.. deprecated:: 8.5
This deprecated flag (on by default) is for compatibility with Coq pre 8.5. It
resets internal name counters to make executions of :tacn:`omega` independent.
.. flag:: Omega UseLocalDefs
This flag (on by default) allows :tacn:`omega` to use the :term:`bodies <body>` of local
variables.
.. flag:: Omega System
This flag (off by default) activate the printing of debug information
.. flag:: Omega Action
This flag (off by default) activate the printing of debug information
Technical data
--------------
Overview of the tactic
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* The goal is negated twice and the first negation is introduced as a hypothesis.
* Hypotheses are decomposed in simple equations or inequalities. Multiple
goals may result from this phase.
* Equations and inequalities over ``nat`` are translated over
``Z``, multiple goals may result from the translation of subtraction.
* Equations and inequalities are normalized.
* Goals are solved by the OMEGA decision procedure.
* The script of the solution is replayed.
Overview of the OMEGA decision procedure
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The OMEGA decision procedure involved in the :tacn:`omega` tactic uses
a small subset of the decision procedure presented in :cite:`TheOmegaPaper`
Here is an overview, refer to the original paper for more information.
* Equations and inequalities are normalized by division by the GCD of their
coefficients.
* Equations are eliminated, using the Banerjee test to get a coefficient
equal to one.
* Note that each inequality cuts the Euclidean space in half.
* Inequalities are solved by projecting on the hyperspace
defined by cancelling one of the variables. They are partitioned
according to the sign of the coefficient of the eliminated
variable. Pairs of inequalities from different classes define a
new edge in the projection.
* Redundant inequalities are eliminated or merged in new
equations that can be eliminated by the Banerjee test.
* The last two steps are iterated until a contradiction is reached
(success) or there is no more variable to eliminate (failure).
It may happen that there is a real solution and no integer one. The last
steps of the Omega procedure are not implemented, so the
decision procedure is only partial.
Bugs
----
* The simplification procedure is very dumb and this results in
many redundant cases to explore.
* Much too slow.
* Certainly other bugs! You can report them to https://coq.inria.fr/bugs/.
