    Abstract

    Loop invariants play a very important role in proving correctness of
    programs. In this paper, we address the problem of generating invariants of
    polynomial loop programs. We present a new approach, for generating polynomial
    equation invariants of polynomial loop programs through computing vanishing
    ideals of sample points. We apply rational function interpolation, based on
    early termination technique, to generate invariants of loop programs with
    symbolic initial values. Our approach avoids first-order quantifier elimination
    and cylindrical algebraic decomposition(CAD).

    Abstract

    Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple graph without isolated vertices. A set $S\subseteq
    V$ is a paired-dominating set if every vertex in $V-S$ has at least one
    neighbor in $S$ and the subgraph induced by $S$ contains a perfect matching. In
    this paper, we present a linear-time algorithm to determine whether a given
    vertex in a block graph is contained in all its minimum paired-dominating sets.
