Formal Methods overview
Mathematical techniques for specifying, modeling, and verifying software and hardware correctness. Encompasses model checking (TLA+, Alloy, SPIN), theorem proving (Coq, Lean, Isabelle/HOL), abstract interpretation, and satisfiability solvers (SMT/SAT). Applied to safety-critical systems, concurrent protocols, smart contracts, and compiler verification to provide machine-checked proofs of correctness.
