Some Casper Isabelle/HOL Proofs

Isabelle2017 should work.

On the Newest Casper Design

• DynamicValidatorSetOneMessage.thy is about one-message Casper (newer) with a dynamic validator set (more realistic), and proves accountable safety (not plausible liveness).

• CasperOneMessage.thy is about one-message Casper (newer) with a static validator set (unrealistic), and proves accountable safety (not plausible liveness).

On Older Casper Designs

• DynamicValidatorSet.thy is about two-message Casper (older) with a dynamic validator set (more realistic), and proves accountable safety (not plausible liveness).

• Casper.thy is about two-message Casper (older) with a static validator set (unrealistic), and proves accountable safety (not plausible liveness).

• MinimumAlgo.thy is about two-message Casper (older) with a dynamic validator set, and proves accountable safety and plausible liveness.

How to See the Script

Open the thy files with Isabelle2017.

Or, adjust the path in document_generation.sh and run it to obtain a PDF file (which should look like this one).
