About Me

A picture of Arthur Correnson

I am a PhD candidate at CISPA under the supervision of Prof. Bernd Finkbeiner. My research focuses on trustworthy formal verification based on interactive proof assistants (especially Coq), with applications to security, compilation, model-checking, and automated bug finding. More recently, I have been working on using interactive proof assistants to verify hyperproperties of programs in the context of the ERC advanced grant HYPER.

Feel free to send me an email for any question related to my research! I am also very happy to discuss any research oriented project, especially if it involves proofs or programming languages!

Teaching

I truly enjoy teaching! I have been involved in the organization of many lectures at Saarland University.
