Corner analysis
Simulation of a circuit at a defined set of extreme combinations of process skew, supply voltage, temperature and sometimes extraction corner. It bounds performance cheaply, but does not capture local device mismatch the way Monte Carlo does.

Notes
Corner counts explode combinatorially, so analog teams commonly prune to a worst-case subset identified by sensitivity analysis.
