Sharing, freeness, linearity, redundancy, widenings, and cliques

We discuss here different variants of the Sharing abstract domain, including the base domain that captures set-sharing, a variant to capture pairsharing, in which redundant sharing groups (w.r.t. the pair-sharing property) can be eliminated, and an alternative representation based on cliques. The original proposal for using cliques in the non-redundant version of the domain is reviewed, then extended to the base domain. Variants of all the domains including freeness alone, and freeness together with linearity are also studied.
