Beyond Type-checking: Towards Holistic Evaluation of Formal Specification Generation

Srijith Nair, Aditya Vempaty, Jia Liu et al. · 2026

When generating verifiable code, natural language requirements are mapped to machine checked code using LLMs and agentic workflows. A crucial component of this pipeline is specification generation (SpecGen), which produces a formal contract against which an agent can prove implementation correctness. Proof generation c …

Second-Order Problem Solving for Recursive Self-Improvement in Formal Verification

Yuxuan Jiang, Aditya Vempaty, Ashish Jagmohan · 2026

Recursive self-improvement (RSI) enables agents to iteratively optimize their workflows via execution feedback. However, standard RSI typically operates as a first-order optimizer: it repeatedly patches surface-level parameters in response to immediate failure symptoms, often leading to trial-and-error thrashing withou …
