Enumerative Level-2 Solution Counting for Quantified Boolean Formulas
Résumé
We lift the problem of enumerative solution counting to quantified Boolean formulas (QBFs) at the second level. In contrast to the well-explored model counting problem for SAT (#SAT), where models are simply assignments to the Boolean variables of a formula, we are now dealing with tree (counter-)models reflecting the dependencies between the variables of the first and the second quantifier block. It turns out that enumerative counting on the second level does not give the complete model count. We present the-to the best of our knowledge-first approach of counting tree (counter-)models together with a counting tool that exploits state-of-the-art QBF technology. We provide several kinds of benchmarks for testing our implementation and illustrate in several case studies that solution counting provides valuable insights into QBF encodings.
