Abstract

We propose a new decision procedure for the existential theory of the reals. It performs a backtracking search for a model in R, where the backtracking is powered by a novel conflict resolution procedure based on cylindrical algebraic decomposition. The initial experimental results are very encouraging. The full article has been accepted at the 6th International Joint Conference on Automated Reasoning (IJCAR 2012).
