Abstract
We investigate the combination of propositional SAT checkers with satisfiability procedures for domain-specific theories such as linear arithmetic, arrays, lists and the combination thereof. Our procedure realizes a lazy approach to satisfiability checking of Boolean constraint formulas by iteratively refining Boolean formulas based on lemmas generated on demand by the decision procedures.
