Abstract
In order to reduce the computational complexity of model checking, we can use a subset of first-order logic, called EUF, but the model checking problem using EUF is generally undecidable. In our previous work, we proposed a technique for checking invariant property for an over-approximate set of states including all the reachable states. In this paper, we extend this technique for handling not only invariants but also temporal properties written in computational tree logic with EUF extension. We show that model checking becomes possible for designs which are hard to handle without the proposed technique.
