bitmap

Lean 4 bitmap image utilities with verified PNG encode/decode support, plus a small widget for visualization.

Current library version: 0.10.0.

The widget accepts the supported 8-bit bitmap formats and displays 16-bit bitmap formats by downsampling each channel to its high byte for browser canvas output. Packed 1-bit grayscale bitmaps are expanded to 8-bit grayscale for display, and PNG pHYs metadata can drive physical-size or pixel-aspect rendering.

Proofs include functional correctness, guaranteed termination and no buffer overflows.

Supported PNG features

The encoder and decoder target a deliberately narrow PNG subset — the one for which the library implements directly. The byte-per-pixel bitmap formats in this subset carry full round-trip correctness proofs; packed 1-bit grayscale and explicit indexed-palette paths currently have focused layout, validation, packed-row, raw decoder, parsed/container, exact indexed runtime-shape, and checked-encoder filter-0 round-trip proofs for supported bit depths, plus encoder-side fixed/adaptive row-filter reconstruction contracts, Adam7, symbolic palette Adam7 dispatcher coverage, symbolic palette multi-IDAT parser coverage, and all-image symbolic plain-palette and palette-transparency/background expansion coverage.

Encoder

Area	Support
Color types	0 Grayscale, 2 RGB, 3 indexed-color palette, 4 Grayscale+Alpha, 6 RGBA
Bit depth	Grayscale: 1, 8, or 16 bits per channel. Indexed palette: 1, 2, 4, or 8 bits per index. RGB, Grayscale+Alpha, and RGBA: 8 or 16 bits per channel
Bitmap formats	Gray1/Bitmap.Gray1, Gray8, RGB8, GrayAlpha8, RGBA8, Gray16, RGB16, GrayAlpha16, RGBA16, plus explicit PngIndexedBitmap input for palette PNGs
Filter type	Existing encodeBitmap APIs emit filter 0 rows. encodeBitmapWithOptionsChecked, encodeGray1BitmapWithOptionsChecked, and encodeIndexedBitmapWithOptionsChecked can opt into fixed filters 0 None, 1 Sub, 2 Up, 3 Average, 4 Paeth, or deterministic adaptive per-row selection
Compression modes	.stored (uncompressed DEFLATE), .fixed (fixed-Huffman with greedy 32 KiB-window LZ77 encoding), .dynamic (generated dynamic-Huffman tables and dynamic-Huffman payload codes, using greedy 32 KiB-window LZ77 encoding)
Interlace	None (encoder always emits non-interlaced PNGs)
Chunks emitted	Existing pure encodeBitmap APIs emit IHDR, one IDAT, IEND only. encodeBitmapWithOptionsChecked, encodeGray1BitmapWithOptionsChecked, and encodeIndexedBitmapWithOptionsChecked can also emit validated gAMA, cHRM, sRGB, pHYs, or explicit tIME chunks, with optional compatible gAMA=45455 before sRGB and compatible sRGB chromaticities before sRGB. The indexed encoder emits required PLTE plus optional palette tRNS and palette bKGD chunks. File-writing helpers emit the current UTC tIME by default; writePngWithoutTime keeps deterministic no-tIME output
Integrity	CRC-32 per chunk, Adler-32 in the zlib trailer
Dimension limits	width and height each < 2^32, enforced by checked bitmap and indexed encoder APIs

Decoder

Area	Support
Color types	0, 2, 3, 4, 6
Bit depth	Grayscale: 1, 8, or 16 bits per channel. Indexed palette: 1, 2, 4, or 8 bits per index. RGB, Grayscale+Alpha, and RGBA: 8 or 16 bits per channel
Filter types	All five reconstructed: 0 None, 1 Sub, 2 Up, 3 Average, 4 Paeth
Interlace	None and Adam7
Compression	inflateStored tried first, then fixed- and dynamic-Huffman zlib streams (full HLIT/HDIST/HCLEN + code-length-code + literal/length and distance tables)
LZ77	Length codes 257–285 and distance codes 0–29 with extra bits; copyDistance supports overlap (distance < length)
Color conversion	1-bit grayscale PNGs can be decoded into Bitmap.Gray1 exactly or expanded into 8-/16-bit grayscale, RGB, or RGBA targets using full-range black/white samples. Indexed palette PNGs can be decoded exactly with decodeIndexedBitmap/decodeIndexedBitmapWithMetadata, or expanded through PLTE into 8-/16-bit grayscale, RGB, grayscale+alpha, or RGBA targets; 16-bit targets use full-range u8 * 257 channel expansion. RGB PNGs can be decoded into Bitmap.RGBA8 (fills α = 255), gray+alpha PNGs into Bitmap.RGBA8 (preserves alpha as expanded gray), and RGBA PNGs into Bitmap.RGB8 (drops alpha). 16-bit PNGs may be decoded into matching 8-bit bitmap formats by taking the high byte of each sample
Color space	sRGB chunks are validated, preserved in metadata-aware decode, and treated as already-sRGB samples. gAMA chunks are validated and preserved. cHRM chunks are validated, preserved, and when no sRGB chunk is present, RGB/RGBA source samples are converted to sRGB using cHRM primaries plus gAMA when present, or linear-light source samples when gAMA is absent. Palette samples are expanded through PLTE before color-space conversion. sRGB with gAMA is accepted only for compatible gAMA=45455; sRGB with cHRM is accepted only for compatible sRGB chromaticities; sRGB takes precedence
Physical density	pHYs chunks are validated, preserved in metadata-aware decode, and exposed as exact pixels-per-unit values plus helper DPI conversion for metre-based density. The widget uses metre-based pHYs for CSS physical size and unknown-unit pHYs for pixel-aspect correction
PNG structure	8-byte signature, IHDR first, multiple consecutive IDAT chunks accepted and concatenated, IEND last, required PLTE ordering checks, required valid PLTE before IDAT for palette PNGs, rejects unknown critical chunks, compression/filter method ≠ 0, and interlace methods other than 0 or 1
Tolerated ancillary chunks	iCCP, tEXt, zTXt, iTXt, hIST, sPLT, plus any unknown chunk type whose first byte is lowercase — CRC-validated and skipped. Supported gAMA, cHRM, sRGB, pHYs, tIME, bKGD, and tRNS are validated by their dedicated parser branches
Metadata-aware decode	decodeBitmapWithMetadata validates and returns supported gAMA, cHRM, sRGB, pHYs, tIME, PLTE, 1-bit grayscale plus 8- and 16-bit grayscale/RGB/palette bKGD metadata; it applies supported grayscale/RGB/palette tRNS transparency when decoding to RGBA, composites tRNS or RGBA alpha over bKGD when decoding to RGB, and composites grayscale+alpha over grayscale bKGD when decoding to RGB or grayscale. Palette tRNS can be decoded into non-alpha targets only when a valid palette bKGD is present. 16-bit sources can target exact 16-bit bitmaps or matching 8-bit bitmaps by high-byte downsampling after metadata handling
Integrity	CRC-32 verified for every parsed chunk; mismatch rejects the entire input. Adler-32 verified at end of zlib stream

Not supported

• Non-palette 2- and 4-bit grayscale PNGs
• Truecolor RGB bit depth 1 (PNG forbids color type 2 at bit depth 1)
• Encoder-side Adam7 interlacing
• Automatic palette quantization from RGB/RGBA bitmap input — palette encoding requires explicit PngIndexedBitmap input
• tRNS through the pixel-only decodeBitmap API — use decodeBitmapWithMetadata for transparent-color decoding into Bitmap.RGBA8, or into Bitmap.RGB8 when a valid bKGD background is present
• Gray+alpha through the pixel-only decodeBitmap API into non-alpha targets — use decodeBitmapWithMetadata for Bitmap.RGB8 or Bitmap.Gray8 when a valid grayscale bKGD background is present
• sBIT chunks — explicitly rejected (decoder returns none) rather than silently ignored, to avoid the silent-corruption hazard of dropping precision metadata that affects pixel semantics
• Unknown critical chunks (any chunk type whose first byte is uppercase and not IHDR/PLTE/IDAT/IEND) — rejected per the PNG spec
• Reading-back of most ancillary chunk content (tEXt, iCCP, etc.) — those chunks are validated and skipped; decodeBitmapWithMetadata preserves supported PLTE, gAMA, cHRM, sRGB, pHYs, tIME, bKGD, and tRNS

• mixed DEFLATE-stream forward correctness against an inductive DeflateStreamSpec covering stored, fixed, and dynamic blocks chained through BFINAL (deflateStreamSpec_decodeFuel_correct, deflateStreamSpec_decode_correct, Phase 2 of the external-PNG plan);
• end-to-end external-PNG correctness: any byte stream matching an ExternalPngSpec (8-bit depth, color types 0/2/4/6, non-interlaced, no ancillary chunks, no metadata, source matching target pixel type) is accepted by decodeBitmap and decodes to the spec's bitmap (decodeBitmap_external_correct, Phase 5 of the external-PNG plan);
• end-to-end multi-IDAT correctness: the same end-to-end guarantee generalised to byte streams with any positive number of IDAT chunks (decodeBitmap_external_multiIdat_correct, Phase 6 of the external-PNG plan);
• there are no buffer overflows;
• PNG encode and decode are total functions.

Proof Coverage Limits

The PNG round-trip proofs are encoder-to-decoder proofs for streams produced by this library. They do not yet prove that the decoder accepts every valid PNG file or every valid zlib/DEFLATE stream produced by another implementation. The exact 16-bit bitmap round trips are proved; cross-depth 16-to-8 decoding is runtime-tested but not yet exposed as a top-level theorem.

The dynamic DEFLATE proof now has a generic operational spec layer: successful readDynamicTablesSpec? parses project to the runtime table reader, any validated DynamicPayloadTrace decodes to the specified bytes, DynamicDeflateStreamSpec covers dynamic-only multi-block streams through BFINAL, and ZlibDynamicStreamSpec adds the zlib header and Adler-32 trailer checks. The public generated dynamic encoder is proved end-to-end through the runtime readDynamicTables and generic dynamic payload decoder path; the older fixed-shaped dynamic helper remains regression coverage.

The full-LZ77 encoder proof is a round-trip correctness proof for the streams the encoder emits: every emitted match is valid, and decoding the generated fixed or dynamic DEFLATE payload reconstructs the original bytes. The public fixed and dynamic zlib wrappers are now proved through the greedy LZ77 encoder paths (zlibDecompress_zlibCompressFixed, zlibDecompress_zlibCompressDynamic). This does not prove that the greedy matcher chooses the globally smallest compressed representation. Future compression-ratio work can add lazy matching, which looks one byte ahead before committing to a match, and optimal parsing, which chooses a lowest-cost literal/match sequence for the whole stream.

This is still not a standalone RFC-1951 grammar/completeness theorem independent of the runtime parser, nor a single mixed stored/fixed/dynamic block-stream theorem. The proof-level dynamic table boundary delegates bit-level header parsing to readDynamicTables; runtime tests cover code-length repeats 16, 17, and 18, repeat overflow shape, literal-only zero-distance blocks, LZ77 matches, and dynamic multi-block fixtures.

LZ77 encoder proof status

The current greedy LZ77 proof path includes:

• deflateTokensExpandLz77_deflateTokensLz77: expanding the emitted token stream reconstructs the raw input.
• zlibDecompress_zlibCompressFixed: public fixed-Huffman zlib output decodes to the original raw bytes through the LZ77 token path.
• zlibDecompress_zlibCompressDynamic: public generated dynamic-Huffman zlib output decodes to the original raw bytes through the LZ77 token path.
• Generated dynamic LZ77 header and payload bridge lemmas, including readDynamicTables_generatedDynamicLz77Suffix_readerAt_writeBits, decodeCompressedBlock_deflateTokensLz77Payload_suffix_readerAt_writeBits, and zlibDecompressLoop_deflateDynamicLz77.

Good next theorem targets for stronger LZ77 specifications:

• deflateDistanceInfo_decodeDistance_correct: encoded distance symbol and extra bits decode back to the original distance.
• deflateLengthInfo_decodeLength_correct: encoded length symbol and extra bits decode back to the original match length.
• copyDistance_spec: arbitrary valid distance and len copy exactly the bytes described by the LZ77 back-reference, including overlap.
• deflateTokensLz77_valid: every emitted match has 3 ≤ len ≤ 258, 1 ≤ distance ≤ 32768, and distance ≤ current output size.
• writeFixedPayload_lz77_decode_correct: fixed-Huffman payload written from valid LZ77 tokens decodes to token expansion.
• writeDynamicPayload_lz77_decode_correct: generated dynamic-Huffman payload written from valid LZ77 tokens decodes to token expansion.

Future optional theorem targets:

• lz77Greedy_longest_at_position: the greedy finder chooses the longest match available at the current position.
• lz77Greedy_tieBreaks_nearest: equal-length matches choose the smallest distance.
• lazyMatching_preserves_roundTrip: lazy matching changes token choice but still expands to the same input.
• optimalParsing_minimal_cost: optimal parsing produces a token stream whose encoded bit cost is minimal under a fixed cost model.

External-PNG spec status

A multi-phase plan is in progress to extend the proof coverage to byte streams not produced by this library's encoder. The phases that have landed:

• Phase 4 (row filter): Bitmap/Lemmas/Png/RowFilterSpec.lean — complete.
• Phase 1a (stored block): Bitmap/Lemmas/Png/StoredBlockProofsSpec.lean — complete, including the multi-block stream theorem.
• Phase 3a-3d (PNG container): Bitmap/Lemmas/Png/ContainerSpec.lean — complete, including parsePng_simpleContainerSpec_correct.
• Phase 1b (fixed block): Bitmap/Lemmas/Png/FixedBlockProofsSpec.lean — complete (fixedBlockSpec_decode_correct). The runtime's fast variant is bridged in Bitmap/Lemmas/Png/FixedBlockFastSlowBridge.lean with decodeFixedBlockFuelFast_eq_decodeFixedBlockFuel and fixedBlockSpec_decode_correct_fast.
• Phase 2 (mixed BlockSpec ADT + stream correctness): Bitmap/Lemmas/Png/DeflateStreamSpec.lean defines the StoredBlockBitSpec, BlockSpec (3-way sum), and DeflateStreamSpec inductive structures. Bitmap/Lemmas/Png/DeflateStreamProofs.lean proves deflateStreamSpec_decode_correct — any well-formed DeflateStreamSpec is accepted by the runtime zlibDecompressLoop, via per-block-type step lemmas (stored / fixed / dynamic) composed by induction.
• Phase 5 (end-to-end composition): Bitmap/Lemmas/ExternalPngSpec.lean — complete. ExternalPngSpec is a decoder-side spec with witnesses for each layer (container / zlib / row-filter + pixel extraction). The end-to-end theorem decodeBitmap_external_correct proves that any byte stream matching the spec is accepted by decodeBitmap and decodes to the spec's bitmap. Supported subset: 8-bit depth, color types 0/2/4/6, non-interlaced, no ancillary chunks, empty metadata, source color type matching target pixel type.
• Phase 6 (multi-IDAT container): Bitmap/Lemmas/Png/MultiIdatContainerSpec.lean — complete. MultiIdatContainerSpec generalises SimpleContainerSpec to a non-empty list of IDAT chunk payloads (PNG spec compliance); parsePng_multiIdatContainerSpec_correct and parsePngForDecode_multiIdatContainerSpec_correct prove the basic-loop and metadata-aware parsers accept any matching byte stream. Bitmap/Lemmas/MultiIdatExternalPngSpec.lean lifts Phase 5 to ExternalPngMultiIdatSpec / decodeBitmap_external_multiIdat_correct, threading the multi-chunk container through the unchanged zlib + row-filter witnesses (they consume the concatenated container.idatData).
