We propose a procedure for automated implicit inductive theorem proving for equational specifications made of rewrite rules with conditions and constraints. The constraints are interpreted over constructor terms (representing data values),…
Bounded fitting is an attractive paradigm for learning logical formulas from labeled data examples that offers PAC-style generalization guarantees and can often be implemented leveraging SAT solvers. It has been successfully applied to…
We study the complexity of inverse cellular automata on configurations of bounded size. Deciding injectivity in this setting is co-NP-complete by a theorem of Durand. We give a simpler proof of this theorem by a direct reduction from UNSAT…
One of the elegant achievements in the history of proof theory is the characterization of the provably total recursive functions of an arithmetical theory by its proof-theoretic ordinal as a way to measure the time complexity of the…
We connect learning algorithms and algorithms automating proof search in propositional proof systems: for every sufficiently strong, well-behaved propositional proof system $P$, we prove that the following statements are equivalent, 1.…
Proof by induction plays a critical role in formal verification and mathematics at large. However, its automation remains as one of the long-standing challenges in Computer Science. To address this problem, we developed sem_ind. Given…
We study implicational formulas in the context of proof complexity of intuitionistic propositional logic (IPC). On the one hand, we give an efficient transformation of tautologies to implicational tautologies that preserves the lengths of…
In this paper we develop cyclic proof systems for the problem of inclusion between the least sets of models of mutually recursive predicates, when the ground constraints in the inductive definitions belong to the quantifier-free fragments…
We define an extension of predicate logic, called Binding Logic, where variables can be bound in terms and in propositions. We introduce a notion of model for this logic and prove a soundness and completeness theorem for it. This theorem is…
We present semantic correctness proofs of automatic differentiation (AD). We consider a forward-mode AD method on a higher-order language with algebraic data types and we characterise it as the unique structure-preserving macro given a…
Acoustic scattering of waves by bounded inhomogeneities in an unbounded homogeneous domain is considered. A symmetric coupled system of time-domain boundary integral equations and the second order formulation of the wave equation is…
This paper revisits soundness and completeness of proof systems for proving that sets of states in infinite-state labeled transition systems satisfy formulas in the modal mu-calculus. Our results rely on novel results in lattice theory,…
We derive an intuitionistic version of G\"odel-L\"ob modal logic ($\sf{GL}$) in the style of Simpson, via proof theoretic techniques. We recover a labelled system, $\sf{\ell IGL}$, by restricting a non-wellfounded labelled system for…
This is the second paper of a series. It extends the results of the first paper from number fields to finitely generated fields, based on the recent theory of adelic line bundles of the same authors. We prove an arithmetic Hodge index…
This paper presents proof that Buss's $S^2_2$ can prove the consistency of a fragment of Cook and Urquhart's $\mathrm{PV}$ from which induction has been removed but substitution has been retained. This result improves Beckmann's result,…
This is the first paper of a series. We prove an arithmetic Hodge index theorem for adelic line bundles on projective varieties over number fields. It extends the arithmetic Hodge index theorem of Faltings, Hriljac and Moriwaki on…
Automated theorem provers and formal proof assistants are general reasoning systems that are in theory capable of proving arbitrarily hard theorems, thus solving arbitrary problems reducible to mathematics and logical reasoning. In…
This paper proves Buss's hierarchy of bounded arithmetics $S^1_2 \subseteq S^2_2 \subseteq \cdots \subseteq S^i_2 \subseteq \cdots$ does not entirely collapse. More precisely, we prove that, for a certain $D$, $S^1_2 \subsetneq S^{2D+5}_2$…
The present paper constructs three new systems of clarithmetic (arithmetic based on computability logic --- see http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~giorgi/cl.html): CLA8, CLA9 and CLA10. System CLA8 is shown to be sound and extensionally complete…
We analyse how the standard reductions between constraint satisfaction problems affect their proof complexity. We show that, for the most studied propositional, algebraic, and semi-algebraic proof systems, the classical constructions of…
